Do you have to scan your Universal Express Pass through the scanning system and then gave you a wristband in order to come into the parks?

You scan your ticket. The only park you get a wristband is Volcano Bay. We didn't get to the wizzarding world of Harry Potter which follows the storyline of books as you have to have a park to park pass which is $55.00 per person. I hope you enjoy your stay.

We were at all 3 parks last week. We were required to show ID and pass at the entrance but not for the rides.

No, you have to scan your pass before every ride. Bring a lanyard to keep around your neck. Its easier
