I went there on Sunday before Halloween so it was packed!! But because I was alone I could also skip all the lines since they have a single lane. Best thing ever, I did everything atleast once and some of the rollercoasters more than twice. Also went to the harry potter world and Nintendo world so it was a perfect day. And because it was Halloween everyone was wearing costumes.

There are a lot of different types of express passes. The one in the video works for 4 certain rides. The info about which express pass covers which rides is typically listed when you purchase it. That way, you can select the rides you want.

@DJ-qr5wg 3 weeks, there are way too many things to do in japan and 3 weeks aren't enough to scratch the surface, but of the top of my head... Osaka > Kyoto > Tokyo > (then 3 days to S Korea) Osaka -> day 1 arrived at evening, rested because of long flight - went to dotonbori at night Day 2 osaka castle, ate at a famous street food guy, and look around the city, at night went to dotonbori street Day 3 Japan Universal Studios Day 4 woke up prepared for Kyoto, went to have a breakfast and took a small walk in my area arrived at kyoto a bit late so all of the shrines and temples were closed > went to kyoto tower at night, went to hotel to prepare for the next day (gotta sleep and wake up early if you want to make the most of your stay at kyoto because all temples close at 5 PM) Day 2 in kyoto - samurai and ninja experience + shrines and temples Day 3 golden temple + bamboo forest + a couple more shrines Day 4 shrines + temples + went to famous shopping district in kyoto -nanenzaka- bought gifts for the family and a big Katana for myself (Also i used to sit at the bar in my hotel at nights after a long day of walking KABIN KYOTO, great staff and bar) Day 5 woke up had a great breakfast and a cup of coffee to prepare myself for the train to tokyo -> went to station (and surprisingly had a 2 hours delay because of a fire on the train track, the only time the train was ever delayed in my 3 weeks stay) Arrived at tokyo a bit late > my hotel had a warm swimming pool/jacuzzi/onsen so i just relaxed there Spent a week in tokyo and went to many places a few towers, dreamlabs, shibuya crossing, akihabara electric district (which has so many stuff to do and so many figure shops, im a big fan of anime so i spent there like 3 days) And in the end i felt like i still didnt experience half of what tokyo has to offer I'm definitely going back to Japan in a few years. Forgot to mention that my last day in tokyo was 31/10 so i spent the night meeting new people, socialising and taking photos with all the people that wore costumes for Halloween:)

The USJ japanese and English websites are different. All the passes were sold out on the english one. I managed to buy tickets on the japanese website (with the google translate module on). But be careful, they ask for a japanese adress and a phone number. Either use your BNB or hotel one, or a friends who lives in Japan.

It is a $80 pass that includes express access to 4 rides and gives you a time slot to enter Harry Potter world and Super Nintendo world. You can buy passes that give you different number of rides. I know there are ones for 6 rides, but of course more expensive. I don’t think you can buy 1 ride only
