Hi Maiko, and welcome to planDisney!
I renew my Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass this summer, too, Maiko. I am so looking forward to another year of walking down Main Street, U.S.A, eating
DOLE Whips, saying hello to my favorite characters, and taking endless rides on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority
Peoplemover. And eek! How exciting is it that our little ones are now eligible to be full-fledged Annual Passholders, too?! Let's get into how you should go about making this magic happen for him.
To start, the
Disney Pixie Dust Annual Pass is the only pass available to purchase at the time. However, as an existing Passholder, you will be able to match his annual pass type to yours once he turns 3 years old. Woohoo!
Although you may not be asked for proof of your little Mouseketeer's age, you'll want to wait until he's officially 3 years old to purchase his annual pass. Because you are already an Annual Passholder, you may
call (407) 560-PASS to purchase it. Or visit the Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass webpage, and make the purchase online. To activate his pass, visit one of the theme parks' ticket windows or the
Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs.
Because your little one turns 3 years old after you plan to renew, I do have an idea to keep your renewal dates closer together. Remember, you can renew your annual pass up to 60 days before and up to 30 days after the expiration dates. So, if you don't have any trips planned during the 30 days after your annual pass expires, you could renew your annual pass towards the end of the window. That way, next year, both of your renewal windows will (most likely) overlap.
AN EXTRA GEM: My family members' annual passes' expiration dates are all over the year, so I definitely understand your dilemma. Maiko, I also recommend adding the various renewal dates on a digital calendar and setting reminders as each date gets closer.

I'm all ears!
Magic always,
LeAndra
