Hi Kari!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I love the added convenience of
Disney MaxPass while visiting Disneyland Resort and the fact that it includes all my
Disney PhotoPass images too is just the cherry on top!
Whether you purchase your Disney MaxPass ahead of time or each individual day after you enter the park, you must wait to scan entry to begin making your
FASTPASS selections. If you do not purchase ahead of time, each day after you enter you'll receive a pop up on the
Disneyland Mobile App asking if you want to upgrade your ticket. If you'd like to purchase Disney MaxPass this way, I'd recommend saving a credit card to your account to expedite the process so you can begin your FASTPASS selections as quickly as possible. If you purchase ahead of time, the moment you scan you can hit the ground running! Regardless of whether your scan into
Disneyland Park or
Disney California Adventure Park, you'll be able to make your FASTPASS bookings across both!
It looks like your trip is quickly approaching
just around the river bend so please let us know if we can help in any other way before you arrive!
