Hey there, friend. A warm welcome from all of us at planDisney to you. Thanks for stopping by to ask us this question. I'm super excited to hear that you are thinking about becoming a
Magic Key holder.
I'm sad to share that Magic Key pass sales are currently paused and we unfortunately do not know when they will become available for sale again. Your best bet for staying updated on the latest news and announcements is to keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog and follow
@disneylandmagickey on Instagram. The last time Magic Key sales were reopened, a post was made by @disneylandmagickey on Instagram.
On the bright side, I do have some good news to share with you. When Magic Key sales were last open, California residents absolutely had the option to select the monthly payment plan when purchasing their Magic Key pass. When sales reopen and you're ready, you will just need to make sure to are logged into your Disney account before making your purchase to see the payment plan option (subject to change). There is also a Magic Key pass (Imagine Key) available exclusively to Southern California Residents living in zip codes 90000 to 93599.
I've really enjoyed being a Magic Key holder over the years. I love taking advantage of the exclusive offerings and discounts. In fact, I just recently picked up the special complimentary tote available to Magic Key holders during my last visit. That aside, I think the best benefit is being able to drop into the theme parks whenever I need a little extra magic in my life (with a valid theme park reservation).
Well friend, while this might not have been the answer you were hoping for, I hope the information I provided was still helpful. I'll be sending all the pixie dust your way in the hopes that we hear some news about Magic Key sales soon. If you're curious about anything else, please come back to ask us.
