Hey there, Gavin. Welcome to planDisney!
Like Tarzan, I'm thrilled you decided to
swing by with such a fantastic question! We have a lot in common, Gavin! I'm also from Ohio, and soon we'll both be out-of-state Annual Passholders! If you tell me that Tarzan is your favorite Disney movie, then we really have a lot in common! I mention this because with my
Incredi-Pass, every time I step onto Walt Disney World property, I find myself quoting my favorite gorilla, Terk: "The fun has arrrrrrrived!" I can't wait for your Annual Pass to have you singing the same thing!
So let's discuss
the specifics of your pass. You'll be happy to know that if you purchase your Annual Pass in November, you have a full year to activate it. Then, after your first use, your pass officially "starts" and will remain valid for one year from your first visit. For example, if you buy your pass in November and don't scan in with it until this summer, your expiration date will be one year from that first use, rather than the date of purchase.
Gavin, with your Incredi-Pass, you can check out the
EPCOT Festival of Holidays, grab a pizza from
Via Napoli, or take a ride on "the wildest ride of the wilderness" when
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad reopens —because your pass lets you do it all. My favorite perk of being an Annual Passholder is the discounts at Resort hotels, discounts at select dining and merchandise locations, and savings on certain special event tickets!
Be sure to check out the
Annual Passholder Perks & Extras to get the best value from your pass, and look over the
Special Offers, Deals & Discounts page to see an example of the hotel offers.
Gavin, I'm not
lion when I say I'm happy you stopped by with your question. Here in the planDisney jungle, we're
bananas for helping fellow Guests, and we
ape-solutely hope you'll visit us anytime for a bit of fun, magical help!
Happy planning, Gavin!
