Universal Express Pass vs Single Rider

Another question you might be asking yourself is should I use the Universal single rider line or the Universal Express Pass. It’s important to keep in mind that the Universal Orlando single rider lines are free while the express pass is an additional charge. With that being said the Universal Orlando single rider line does not guarantee that your wait time would be shorter then the regular stand by queue. So if you absolutely want to ensure that you avoid any lines at Universal Orlando we do believe it express pass is the best option. However if you are okay with rolling the dice we do still believe that the Universal Orlando single rider line will save you time.

We would still always suggest to take a look at the ride list and try to figure out exactly how many of the rides included with the Universal single rider line you would like to experience. If it’s only one or two you might be better off skipping the Universal Orlando express pass as well. It’s also important to keep in mind the rides that are included with Universal early park admission.
