"Welcome home," Caroline! From one Disney Vacation Club Member to another let me say a hearty thanks for stopping by with your question.
When my family and I first became Members of this very special club I was elated to learn about the
Member Benefits and perks available. In addition to discounts and events, from time to time there are Member specials for theme park tickets and in the past, the ability to purchase an annual pass.
Caroline, while the Walt Disney World Resort continues to focus on enhanced health and safety measures, the sale of annual passes (including the Gold Pass that was available to Disney Vacation Club Members) is on pause. While we don't have any information yet regarding when the sale of annual passes might return, please keep a close watch on the
Disney Parks Blog as Tinker Bell likes to sprinkle pixie dusted announcements there first.
Since it looks like you'll be headed to the Most Magical Place on Earth in October,
theme park tickets can be purchased online through the Walt Disney World Website. At this time there is not an option to purchase through the Disney Vacation Club Member portal. Caroline, once you've purchased your park tickets, you'll want to make your complimentary
Disney Park Pass reservations for the parks you wish to visit as soon as possible.
I hope this information is useful as you're looking ahead to your next visit to the Walt Disney World Resort. If you have any additional questions, please come on back to planDisney!
