The express pass is a separate ticket you purchase that allows you to skip the regular lines at selected attractions.
So, keep in mind, this shorter line simply means it is a shorter wait time than the regular line. There is not a promised time limit and it is not always immediate access.
Though the wait times vary and it depends on how busy the park is and the time of year, you will undoubtedly save time!
The Express Pass comes in a 1-Park or 2-Park option, depending on how many parks you are visiting that day.
The price of Express varies depending on the pass you purchase and the date. Prices in January range from $69.99- $109.99.
