Hello Mayumi!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. We are so happy you have visited us with more of your great questions. Your English is great, Mayumi! I am so impressed. Please do not apologize.
As an annual passholder myself, I am thrilled you are considering purchasing a
Walt Disney World Resort annual pass. I am sure you will enjoy the countless
benefits that accompany your Walt Disney World Resort annual pass. You have mentioned two of my favorite benefits of being an annual passholder: dining discounts and unlimited Disney PhotoPass downloads. However, please keep in mind that both benefits do not apply to all annual passes.
Mayumi, if you would like to take advantage of the 20% dining discount at select Walt Disney World Resort restaurants for you and your family, you must present your annual pass at the time of paying for your meal and verify that all of your dining party is on the same check. If you want to take advantage of the discount on Walt Disney World Resort merchandise, you must be the one to complete the transaction and present your annual pass at the time of purchase. Your family members do not need an annual pass of their own.
All Disney PhotoPass photos and videos are now included with the Disney Premier Passport, Disney Platinum Plus Pass, Disney Platinum Pass or Disney Gold Annual Pass. Any other annual passes do not include unlimited Disney PhotoPass downloads. If you purchase any of the annual passes previously mentioned, you will be able to download all of your Disney PhotoPass photos free of charge!
Mayumi, please continue visiting the Moms Panel with all of your fantastic Disney vacation planning questions. We are always here to help you!
Wishing you Endless Year-Round Magic,
Priscila
