Hey, Kristina! I definitely like the way you think! I like to hit the ground running each day while at Walt Disney World Resort. There's so much magic to chase, so no sense in being late for a very important date with your favorite attraction that next morning! There is usually at least one ticket window or the Guest Relations booth open at the front of each theme park as long as the park is open, including
Extra Magic Hours. If you find that you are a bit late in arriving, know that the Guest Relations and
Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs usually are open late, until 11:00 p.m. during the week and 11:30 p.m. on the weekend. You will be able to activate your Annual Pass at either of those locations.
If you are not able to reach any of these locations in time that evening, know that activating your Annual Pass is usually a very quick process. I do recommend that you arrive at the park a bit early so that you can get ahead of the crowds at the ticket windows that morning. Also, know that you will find a Passholder exclusive entrance at each theme park. Check it out to see if the line there to enter the park may be a bit shorter! In my experience, this line usually moves a bit faster.
I hope this information helps you plan for a magical beginning to your pixie-dusted year as an Annual Passholder! Thanks for stopping by and please let us know if you have any other questions.
