Hello, Debbie! Welcome to planDisney.
I've been a
Walt Disney World Annual Passholder for years now, Debbie, and I can honestly say it is well worth the initial investment. I have made so many magical memories over the years that I probably wouldn't have without being an annual passholder. It's a great program.
Debbie, as soon as you purchase a Walt Disney World Annual Pass and link it to your MyDisneyExperience account you can begin selecting your
park pass reservations. You do not need to wait until your pass is activated to do this. Because you live out of state, you are probably looking at the Disney Incredi-Pass. With this annual pass you are able to make and hold up to 5 park pass reservations at a time without a resort stay booked. This is such a welcomed change. Previously, we've only been able to hold 3 park pass reservations at a time and it makes for anything more than a weekend at the Walt Disney World Theme Parks hard to plan.
With the Disney Incredi-Pass, Debbie, you'll receive access to all four Walt Disney World Theme Parks 365 days a year with no blockout dates. You'll also receive complimentary theme park parking and discounts on merchandise, food and select resort stays throughout the year. And, like I already mentioned, you'll be able to hold up to 5 park pass reservations at one time. This is the tier of annual pass that I have and I absolutely love it.
I hope to welcome you into the Walt Disney World Annual Passholder family very soon, Debbie. If I can help answer any more questions about the program, please feel free to stop back by and
ask me. I'm happy to help. Also, be sure to follow us over on the
planDisney Instagram page. There are so many fun things coming up with the start of the 50th celebration and we can't wait to share them with you!
