Universal Studios Japan

We went as a family with young children (8 & 11). Definitely worth buying the express pass online as the queues are massive. Harry Potter world was a highlight as was the Jurassic Park ‘Flying Pteradactyl’ ride. Worth getting a the wand that can cast...More

A must if you're in Osaka!

I'll be going to USJ during spring (around 12april-13april) and was wondering how the crowd will be like during that week based on past experiences. Was thinking of getting the express pass if a timed ticket is needed to enter the harry potter site.

Answer

Buy the express pass. Expensive but worth not waiting

jcmenglee

Regarding the timed entry on the express passes for Harry Potter and Minion Ride, it states that the times may differ even if we buy a few passes together as a group. Does it mean that, as a family, we won’t be able to go for these rides at the same time? What happens if my child gets a different time from myself? He will then be unaccompanied on the ride.

You can surely go for each of the rides together as a family, as long as you and your family members stand in the queue together. I will personally recommend that you go for the Harry Potter's ride first - go as early as you... More

I bought my express passes from kkday and they advised to buy all our passes in one transaction to ensure same timed entries. If you do that you should be alright.
