Types of Express PassesGuests get to enjoy participating attractions and shows, as many times as they like throughout the day using Express access. Express Passes sold as a standalone ticket are good for one day only, and each member of your party needs their own ticket, including children 3 or older).
The basic Universal Express Pass is sold as a standalone ticket and allows a guest Express access one time at each participating attraction, similar to how you previously could only use Disney's FastPass+ once per reservation. If you want to ride anything again, you will need to use the standby line.
The only rides that do not have Express access in either park are Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure and Pteranodon Flyers at Universal Islands of Adventure. Jurassic World VelociCoaster is now available with Universal Express!
The cheapest hotel with an Express Pass is Loews Royal Pacific Resort. Pricing does change throughout the year with, date-based pricing ? meaning, when it is busy, rooms will be pricier. No matter the price or time of year, all guests registered in the room will also receive a free Loews Royal Pacific Express Pass.
Likewise, if you have multiple guests in your party, and you want all those individuals to have Express access, you need to purchase one pass for each person. Express Passes are sold in both one-park and two-park varieties.
If you only have one day at Universal Orlando Resort and really want to experience as much as possible, consider purchasing a Universal Express Pass. This front-of-the-line pass works for most of the attractions at both parks and is a real timesaver.
Newly added attractions to the Express Pass include: Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey?Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts?Hogwarts? Express.
If there is a short wait, don't use it. If you have an Express Pass, you should probably use that over Single Rider, especially if you want to ride with someone in your group. However, if it's a busier park day, the Standby line is long, and you don't have Express Pass, Single Rider might be your next best option.
But we didn't stay at just any old hotel: we stayed at the most expensive hotel on Universal property — Loews Portofino Bay. So come with us to see what staying in such a swanky hotel is like!
Those with Universal Express Pass use a separate line for the same ride, and this queue is set up for faster access. That 60-minute standby wait for Forbidden Journey might be under 10 minutes via the Universal Express queue. As you might expect, faster access costs extra money.
