Four of use are going to Universal Studios in Hollywood on Saturday, April 9th. All of us are not interested in the rides, Jurassic, Mummy or Simpsons, since we are all scared. But we would love to see all the shows and studio tour, and leave the studios by 2 or 3pm. Our time in LA is really limited. We are planning to be there by 9am.
Should we buy front of line pass?|||Just a quick note: Do you mean Saturday (Apr. 4) or Thursday (Apr. 9)?
As someone who has worked there for the past 4 years, I'd recommend getting the FOL pass, especially since you are leaving the park so early. Doing the math for all the shows plus the Studio Tour, it will take about 3 hours to finish everything. This does not include walking in the park, waiting for those shows, or eating lunch. So with only about 5 hours to yourselves, you'd be really rushing it through the park. April 4 is the start of our peak season and, as it has been for the past few years, the Spring Break peak season feels a lot like the Summer peak season so wait times would be upwards of 15 minutes. In fact, the last few Saturdays here at USH have been a bit crowded.
On another note, do you ever plan on returning to USH? If you're nearby, you could always come back and see the shows that you missed last time, thus possibly negate the need to buy a FOL pass.
The math if you're curious (duration in parentheses in minutes):
Waterworld (20 to 25)
T2-3D (30)
shrek (15 to 20)
Studio Tour (45)
Animal Actors (15)
Special Effects Stages (30)
Blues Brothers (10)
Backdraft (20)
Total (minimum): 185 minutes (3.08 hours)
USH Tip: Pick up a show schedule! Doing so would help you plan your day accordingly. There's also a little note on it that recommends you show up at least 20 minutes before show time. I'd take this note a bit seriously, but recommend 10 to 15 minutes before instead of 20 (10 minutes if you have the FOL pass). This helps to ensure that you get into the show (unless the show gets full before showtime :( it happens sometimes). Shows in closed venues, especially Terminator, will close the doors at the time the show is scheduled to start.
Hope you enjoy your trip!|||YES! Like you explained, your time is veryy limited (esp. at these kinds of events). Because you're not interested in the rides and such, you deserve the best in shows! It includes all-day admission and there's only a limited supply so hurry!|||Nah, not worth it if you aren't going on the rides.
