VelociCoaster added to Express Pass at Universal Orlando Resort

VelociCoaster, the popular double-launch coaster at Islands of Adventure, has finally been added to Universal Express Pass

VelociCoaster fans received some great news this week with the announcement that the popular coaster has been added to the Express Pass offerings at Universal Orlando Resort.

The addition of an Express Pass lane has necessitated some changes to the queue entry. Guests using Express Pass enter via the center of the queue, and immediately enter the central covered area. Guests using the standby entrance enter to the left and will generally be up in the outdoor area that was generally used for line overflow on busy days for the first portion of their wait. The entry to the right is for single riders. The standby and Express Pass queues merge at the locker area, while the single rider line does not join the rest of the queue until the boarding area.

We were able to check out the new Express Pass offering on 2/20 and found the wait in Express to be around 45 minutes, with a posted wait time of 105 minutes for standby. The addition of Express Pass has changed the operations at the ride a bit, so we should see these wait times start to drop as the team members adjust to these new procedures.

The addition of VelociCoaster to Express Pass leaves Hagrids Motorbike Adventure as the only ride at Universal Orlando that does not currently accept the skip-the-line upgrade.
