Yeah loh. But what to do, the little one likes SNW, which I am also keen to explore.

hence probably will buy the Early Entry pass to rush into SNW and forgo the Express Pass
imo Nintendo World visually looks very nice. but the activities a bit underwhelming. Hogwarts was so much better. I’m not even a Harry Potter fan 😂

download USJ app. On entering the park try to book smw area timed entry tickets. Make sure you scan all the tickets and select then when doing so. This is free. Standby tickets will be offered when timed entry tickets is given out.

A lot depends on crowd on day of your visit.
shd use 1 handphone to scan all tickets to get area timed entry tickets, OR xx handphone devices for xx tickets?

I used one hp. After all tickets scanned and selected can book for all together. I forgot to select all but not a major issue as timing was quite close.

for express pass, are queues for rides with designated timings faster than those without?

you can check YouTube. some rides normal queues have to wait up to 2hrs or more. express pass is straight to the waiting bay. 5-15 mins can get into the ride already. at least that was my experience

Oh I mean, if you look at the various versions of Express Pass on USJ site, there are some Express rides with designated timings, and some don’t.

Will you choose one with designated timing, or one without to have more flexibility ?

I bought from Klook. I think the ones they offer all had timing.

citibank using apple pay

payment failed for many time until i caught the 2.30am wave , somehow transaction went thru and got the tix

the most difficult part for me is the small text for attraction choice time, then comfirm is the timming you want , and rush through filling the form, end up slower than others when you pay and the ticket runs out
