    I have an inspire pass and I was looking to buy one for my fiancé who currently lives out of state. She comes to Cali 1 to 2 times a month. If I purchase her a pass, can I make the CA residence payments since I am the purchaser and I live here?

    Hi Mark, and welcome to planDisney!

    Sharing your visits with that special person in your life always enhances the magic, and I’m thrilled to help you and your fiancé begin this exciting new chapter as Magic Key holders. There’s nothing quite like strolling hand-in-hand down Main Street, U.S.A., or sharing a churro while the evening lights twinkle across the park. It’s pure Disneyland magic!

    Let’s talk about Magic Key payment plans. These plans are available exclusively to California residents living within ZIP codes 90000–96199. I spoke with Myrna, a helpful Cast Member who confirmed that as long as you are the one making the payments and you reside within an eligible ZIP code, you can absolutely take advantage of the payment plan. Meanwhile, your fiancé can use her identification to activate her Magic Key with no trouble at all. There is no separate residency requirement for her as long as you’re handling the payments.

    You and your fiancé couldn’t have picked a more enchanting time to become Magic Key holders! For starters, beginning February 28th, Disney California Adventure will kick off the Food & Wine Festival. This is always one of the tastiest times of the year to visit, with food booths serving up creative bites inspired by the rich culinary heritage of the Golden State. Be sure to check out the Disney Parks Blog’s Foodie Guide. It’s a must for planning your delicious adventure. And here’s a little Q-tip: as Magic Key holders, you’ll have access to a special discount on the Sip and Savor Pass, which comes with eight digital coupons you can use on festival food and nonalcoholic beverages. It’s a fantastic way to sample your way through the festival!

    And that’s just the beginning! This summer, Disneyland Resort will sparkle even brighter as it celebrates its 70th anniversary, beginning May 16th. Disneyland will be brimming with festive touches, from themed décor to the return of two beloved nighttime spectaculars: Wondrous Journeys and Paint the Night. Over at Disney California Adventure Park, you’ll also get to enjoy the return of the Better Together Parade, plus a brand-new nighttime spectacular: World of Color: Happiness! Talk about a happily ever after!

    As you and your fiancé begin this magical new chapter, be sure to download the Disneyland app and check out the Magic Key Portal. It’s the best way to stay in the loop on exclusive offers, special events, and delightful surprises throughout the year.

    If you have any other questions, Mark, we’re always delighted to help here at planDisney.

    Wishing you and your fiancé many “happily ever after” visits!
