    Hello Cecilia! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.

    When I first became a Walt Disney World Resort Annual Passholder, I made the decision to maximize the Theme Park Admissions I would be needing for the full calendar year right down to the 365th day.

    When you purchase a Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass online or by contacting a Cast Member at (407)939-7679, you will be sent a package in the mail with information regarding your Annual Pass. As part of that welcoming package, you should receive a redeemable certificate that must be activated in person at a Ticket Window Guest Services location at Walt Disney World Resort directly.

    You will be required to show identification to have your Annual Pass activated on that first visit. The good news about this process is that until you activate it, your Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass will not begin to count down the 365 days of eligibility. Your Annual Pass will begin upon your first use in November.

    Be sure to look into the benefits afforded to Annual Passholders before your visit, including exclusive Annual Passholder discounted rates for Resort Hotel stays. You can even arrange to take advantage of the Annual Passholder Special Offers on Resort Hotel stays before activation, as long as you activate your card before you Check-In.

    Get ready for 365 days of Endless Magic!
