OSAKA -- The operator of Universal Studios Japan will raise admission fees at the newly expanded theme park for a seventh straight year Feb. 1, but not for kids.
A one-day "studio pass" for visitors 12 and older will cost 7,400 yen ($60.90), up 200 yen, Osaka-based USJ Co. said Monday. Admission for seniors 65 and older will rise 180 yen to 6,650 yen. But for children, defined as those aged 4 to 11, the fee will remain 4,980 yen.
Admission fees last went up in January. The company seeks to quickly recoup recent investments, including a 3-D "Harry Potter" attraction that opened this year.
Oriental Land, which runs Tokyo Disney Resort, raised its adult admission price by 500 yen to 6,900 yen in April. This marked its first increase in four years, excluding a bump-up in line with the 2014 consumption tax hike.
