Universal disability pass vs express pass

[cdurham1]

My next Universal trip won't be at a busy time and I will already have Express Passes. I would normally get a disability pass, but the new qualification system sounds stressful. Is there a significant advantage of having a disability pass if I will already have Express Pass? I want a break from asking my doctors for stuff.

By the way, I think it is unfortunate that Universal is making it so difficult now. It will deter a lot of people from even going.

It would only provide a benefit for rides that don't participate in Express Pass.

I would MUCH rather work with the Express Pass than the Disability Pass. It is a much better tool both from what you can get done, to avoiding tons of walking and backtracking etc. The ONLY plus for the Disability Pass is the ability to use it at Hagrids (Express does not work there).

Which rides do not participate in Express Pass ?

Hagrids is the only one that comes to mind.

A lot of the smaller ones, not the main coasters and rides. Plus Hagrids, as mentioned.

The disability pass my son has been granted as of this new way of doing things is essentially an express pass. We were told we would get immediate access to the Express Line on all those attractions. No more getting a return time. We have yet to test this out, as we just got his IBCCES card and Universal case number issued last month and haven't yet visited Universal, but that is what was explained to me about the pass.
