Hi Veronica,
Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney with your question. Holding a key to the magic is such a special way to enjoy the Happiest Place on Earth!
Sales on new Magic Keys are currently paused, but when they do reopen,
Disneyland will announce when and how they can be purchased ahead of time. The
Magic Key Buying Guide will outline any specifics around if and how a
Disney Gift Card can be used and is a great resource to get all your ducks in a row before you (digitally) step into the queue to make that magical purchase. I can share that in the past, gift cards could only be used to purchase new Magic Keys in full. In other words, Guests could not use them if they were renewing their pass or towards monthly payments for our Californian resident friends who have that option. If you have any specific questions about future or current keys, there is a
Guest Services number just for key holders. I know this might not be the news you were hoping for, Veronica, but I do hope it's helpful in your planning.
My fellow panelists and I just found a new feature on the Disneyland website that allows Guests to be notified when Magic Keys go back on sale. If you navigate to the
Magic Key tab along the top navigation bar and scroll down you will see a "Notify Me When Passes Are On Sale" button. You can also stay in the know by following the
Disneyland Magic Key Instagram account as well. This is a separate account from the regular one for Disneyland and is dedicated to sharing news and offerings for key holders. They often announce when keys will go on sale here. Once that key is in your hand, this is where you will find out information about giveaways, special photo opportunities, and exclusive merchandise just for key holders.
Veronica, I'm wishing on a star that you find a way to hold that Magic Key very soon! If you have any more questions, we are always here for you at
planDisney.
See ya real soon!
Tara
