Besides the complaint about being too short, Universal Studio should change it's operating hours (9am-6pm) considering the tropical climate here. Unlike Genting Highlands which is nice and cool up the mountain, Singapore is either hot or wet throughout the year. It should be extended late in the night (9 or 10pm_ so that one-day ticket holder can have enough time to enjoy all the rides.

Three complaints about Universal Studios Singapore
#1: Opening hours are too short
The opening hours of the park are from 9am to 6pm. With only nine hours to cover a total of 24 attractions, visitors are worried they will not have sufficient time to enjoy themselves.
A 38 year-old housewife who brought her children to the theme park was not aware that it closed at 6pm.
She thought it closed at 8pm. She said the closing time seemed too early as compared to theme parks overseas which open until 8pm or 9pm.
#2: Inconvenient method of booking tickets
Entrance tickets are available for purchase online or via telephone booking. Same day tickets are not available during the soft launch period of the park's opening.
Some tourists expressed their unhappiness at this because those unaware of the soft launch period would not be able to visit the park if they did not plan in advance.
#3: Expensive entrance tickets
The annual Superstar Pass costs S$1098, and is valid for entry any day of the year.
The annual Fun Pass costs S$318 and is valid for entry any day of the year except for weekends during the school holidays and long weekends around public holidays.
While the Superstar Pass is more convenient, the Fun Pass appears to be better value for money.
An adult ticket costs S$66, while a child ticket costs S$48. A visit to the park by a family of four would cost S$228, an amount that may be a little high for some households.
