    I’m a pass holder staying at YC. How early can I pick up magnets at AK on 12/4?

    Jambo, Dorothy! Thanks for coming back to planDisney with another great vacation planning question! It looks like you're headed to the Most Magical Place on Earth in just a few days, and what a treat to be staying at Disney's Yacht Club Resort! Be sure to take a walk over to Disney's Beach Club Resort and check out the gingerbread carousel celebrating its 25th anniversary this year!

    Dorothy, I'm so excited to be visiting the week after you, and as a fellow Annual Passholder, I can't wait to pick up the magical magnet trio that's available from December 3-19 at the Discovery Trading Post in Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park! I checked out the details in the Passholder Buzz in the My Disney Experience mobile app, and it states that the magnets can be picked up during the park's regular operating hours. The Park Hours and Events Calendar lists Animal Kingdom's operating hours as 8 AM - 6 PM on December 4, so you should be good to grab your magnet any time during those hours! I always like to rope drop using Early Theme Park Entry at Animal Kingdom and head straight to Avatar Flight of Passage, so you could always take a flight before picking up your magnets!

    Dorothy, in the spirit of the holiday season at Disney, you'll find some other Passholder exclusives like the Passholder Tree at Disney Springs - you can even pose for some PhotoPass pictures between 2 PM and 9:30 PM with exclusive Magic Shots with the tree! It's one more way to celebrate the season and your commitment to the magic! I can't wait to see all the trees included in the Christmas Tree Stroll and pose for some fun photos!

    I hope this helps, Dorothy! If you have any other questions before your trip, we'd love to see you again here at planDisney!

    Happy Holidays,
    Alison
