Hi Caroline,
How exciting to add another member of your crew to the
Annual Passholder family! At this point, I believe the only way to get his pass on the same renewal cycle would be to not activate his pass until you renew your current passes. According to the
Annual Pass Terms and Conditions,
For a new Pass purchase (not a renewal), a Pass is valid for applicable privileges for one (1) year from the date of use of the Pass for first entry into a Walt Disney World® Resort theme park. Also, if you wait to activate his pass, keep in mind, the current Terms and Conditions state,
A Pass will expire if it is not activated within one (1) year from the date of purchase, and upon expiration, such expired Pass may no longer be activated or have park reservations scheduled for it, and any existing park reservations for such Pass will be cancelled. No refunds will be given.
Of course, you can always
call to speak to a cast member in the Annual Passholder support line since policies and procedures could change. I did call to speak to a cast member to confirm my understanding of the current policy. She did encourage you to call. Someone would be happy to talk through the specifics of your annual passes.
It looks like your next visit date is soon approaching! I can imagine the excitement in your house. Even as Annual Passholders, we still look forward to each and every visit. If you have not already considered a staycation, take a look at the
Special Offers. There currently is one for Annual Passholders to save on select stays in early 2024.
Caroline, I trust you have solidified other plans. We consider a few
advanced dining reservations a must-do, especially for character meals. Remember to use your
passholder discount on dining and merchandise where applicable. And, finally, it looks like you might be able to attend the
EPCOT International Festival of the Arts during your next visit. I hope you can go. I was able to visit during this year's festival - the artwork and culinary options are outstanding!
Happy Planning!
Magic and memories,
Donyell
