Community links are always in the description, and I'm actually gonna bring Michael in on this video.

Michael, come join me.

All right, let's go.

All right.

So let's first talk about planning on coming to Universal Studios.

You have to know that busiest time of the year.

I probably don't have to tell you that weekends and holidays are the busiest days.

But what you should also know is that spring break Halloween summer break and Christmas to New Year's are the busiest times of the year.

Spring break is from end of February 2 early March and summer break is in August.

Also, Universal Studios Japan does a lot of collaborations, so a new attractants kickoff it's getting all Nelly up in here.

But one of the most important things is when you first get your ticket, you can actually get a discount ticket during birthday months.

First of all, prices vary depending on the day, standard weekdays being the cheapest.

So choose your days wisely, but for this example, all use their mid tier pricing.

A one day adult passes 8400 yen, but a one day birthday passed only 7900 years.

You get that 500 yen hit a discount, and it applies to anyone on their birthday month or the month after.

And they can invite up to five people at a discounted rate and what's also interesting that they have the four year old birthday invite so you can get two tickets for roughly the price of one admission.

Plus, you can get discounted rates for five additional friends or family.

So now let's talk about getting into the part.

One of the simplest ways, obviously, is going to the booth and buying your ticket right when you arrive.

But if you want to skip the booth than I recommend getting a Q R code, all you do is get it sent to your phone scan at the entrance and skip ity do urine.

So to get the tickets with a Q R code, you need to either buy it online directly from the U.

S J website Goto Japanese Convene store or go to another third party.

Unfortunately, purchasing tickets from the U.

S J site is only available in Japanese, so you'll need to go to Google.

Translate like this if you want to go this route.

If you want to buy the lots of convenience or you'll again be met with Japanese and you'll have to navigate to the menu system.

But here's a quick English guide on how to do it.

One more thing USDA is doing to be, uh, let's say, flexible with their opening time, For example, it opens 30 to 45 minutes early on the busy holidays without any notification So if you want to maximize your time, you might want to try to give some of that liquid like a try and head to the park early.

It's cool.

They have so many different ones here.

Well, all that one shopping's got me hungry.

Time to hit up the Three Broomsticks Tavern.

Whole delicious pieces, no amusement park.

These ribs are that bad.

Pretty good.

So what?

We're having lunch.

Let me talk a little bit about how to get on Reid's effectively.

This music is pretty loud.

Sorry, guys.

So damn, I completely underestimate how loud the park speakers are.

And it's killing me during this edit.

So let me back up.

Let me talk a little bit about how to get on Reid's effectively.

So one of the easiest and effective ways to get on rides is the Use Express pass, which is similar to Disneyland's fast pass.

But the thing that separates us J from visit land is that if you got some money and you can ride honey, so in other words, you pay extra for these passes.

Instead of the three fast passes you pick up at Disneyland, US J offers several bundle types with an express Ford and Express seven packages.

And if you're gonna be there all day, I recommend the express seven to maximize your time.

But that's how I roll you can, usually by the passes in the morning when you arrive, but do know that there's only a limited amount allocated per day, So when they sell out, they're gone.

Z's also know that on super busy days, the passes sometimes sell out days before I do recommend buying it in advance.

But unfortunately, us Jay's English website doesn't let you buy it online.

So either brush up on your Japanese, go through a travel agency by it through a partner hotel or again go the Google translate method like this.

That said, another way to get ahead of the lines is to use a single rider lines, even if you're in a group.

If you don't care about riding alone that I suggest this method to skip ahead.

It works from nine different attractions at the park.

And finally, let's talk about the royal studio.

This'll is a Bentley version of the Express Pass as you'll be riding in style with unlimited que jumps on basic attractions timed entry and V.

I.

P passes to shows, access and advanced purchasing requirements.

Mayberry.

So if you're interested, look into it as soon as possible.

But be warned you'll be paying that Bentley like price tag up to 40,000 yen, depending on the day.

All right, gotta buy some more baby clothes.

All right, let's continue with the guide.

So we're in Wonderland right now.

On this place is special because it has a yo yo yo yo Yo means reservations, so you can basically book the time you want arrive.

And since Wonderland is kind of like a kid's area, it's perfect for those Children who have trouble waiting in line.

You can use it for Elmo's Bubble Bubble.

Snoopy's great race of flying Snoopy mopey is balloon trip and a hair raising Elmo's Go Go skateboard.

All you need to do is get the ticket in front of E tried using the studio pass, but you can only get one at a time.

You can book the next one on Lee after the previous reservation time.

Theo Michael wait on the final and last.

So let me talk about restaurants.

So basically they're four restaurants in the park where you can make reservations.

Parkside Grill, Finnegan's Bar and Grill sido and Azura di Capri.

You can simply reserve online or go to the restaurant on that day in Tell the staff to book at that time, also a little tip.

You can request in advance a special birthday or anniversary cake at Parkside Grill or Finnegan's Bar and Grill.

And when you're requesting your cake, you can also make a reservation for a table.

So let me talk about some other tips here at the park.

First of all, how to get out of Universal Studios.

So one of the things that's different between Universal Studios and parks like Disney Resort can't actually leave the park and come back.

But there are some exceptions that you might want to know doesn't case you need to sew.

The exceptions are, if you're not feeling that well, you can go to the official hotel because you're feeling sick.

You need to go to the drugstore.

You need to go to the kennel for pet service, or you need to go to the picnic area to go and eat.

And finally, you can ask staff stickers, which aren't sold anywhere.

Not all of the staff have the same stickers, so if you want to collect various stickers, just ask different staff.

Oh, and there are birthday stickers, anniversary character and other limited editions.

So that concludes the video.
