Hey Howdy Hey, Tiffany!
We are so happy to see you here at planDisney! Sounds like someone has a friend in you!
I have good news for you and for your friend. Yes, you can purchase a
Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass for your friend without being an Annual Passholder yourself. First, you need to make sure that you and your friend are connected in your
Family & Friends list in your
My Disney Experience account. When you
make the purchase, the pass will be linked to your account. If you need to link it manually, navigate to Link Tickets then follow the prompts to enter the Annual Pass ID number. Finally, you will be prompted to
assign the pass to someone in your Family & Friends list. Simply select the lucky friend and the Annual Pass will be linked!
I encourage you to make sure your friend knows that an annual pass is not simply for park admission; there are
all sorts of perks! Check the
Passholder Program page and the
Disney Parks Blog regularly, as that is where all the new perks,
discounts, or experiences are announced first. From dining,
Disney Resorts Collection hotel and
merchandise discounts to special attraction previews there is a whole world to explore as a VIPassholder!
Tiffany, I’m so glad you stopped by with your question. A friend like you would make anyone’s life magical! If you have other questions or if your friend wants to learn more about how to make the most of an annual pass, let us know. We are happy to help!
To infinity and beyond,
Shannon
