    I have a magic key pass reservation for the end of November and also want to make a reservation for mid January but the system says "unable". How do I book for January?

    Season's Greetings, Alexandra. Thanks for visiting planDisney with your question. I'm also honored to help a fellow Disneyland Magic Key Holder!

    Currently, Magic Key holders can make theme park reservations 90 days in advance, which is up through mid-February as of today. While theme park reservations are subject to availability, both Disneyland Park and California Adventure Park appear to have available reservations for January 14. So, let's look at a couple of possibilities for not being able to book the date you want!

    My first thought is that your Magic Key might be due for renewal and expires before January 14. If this is the case and you are within the 30 days before your pass expires, then you can go ahead and renew on the Disneyland website. If you are outside of this 30-day renewal window, you will need to wait to renew until you're within the window.

    Alexandra, if you've already renewed your Magic Key and are still not showing availability for January 14, it could be that you are looking at the availability for your current Magic Key and not your renewed Magic Key. If you renewed your Magic Key and want to make a new reservation but your current pass hasn't expired yet, you must select your renewal pass before opening up the Park Reservation Availability Calendar. To do this, go to the "My Disneyland" tab on the Disneyland Resort website and select "Theme Park Reservations." Then, click the "Make or Modify Park Reservations" button and select "Book Theme Park Reservations." The next page will list all Magic Keys connected to your account. If you are in your renewal period and the old pass hasn't expired, you should see two passes listed with the number of reservations available for each (i.e. 3 of 4 Reservations Available, etc.). Select the Magic Key that says renewal (for example: Imagine Key Pass Renewal), before clicking "Next" to choose a park reservation date. This should take you to the calendar with all available dates for the next 60 days. If you inadvertently selected your expiring Magic Key on this step, you would have been shown only dates until your current pass expires.

    Another possibility is that you have booked all available reservations for your pass, so you aren't eligible to book any reservations until you've used one or choose to cancel/modify an existing one. I think this is less likely than the previous solution, but I wanted to mention it just in case it helps!

    Hopefully, one of these solutions will fix your park reservation issue, Alexandra. However, if these don't work, please feel free to reach back out to planDisney, use the online chat function on the Disneyland Website, or contact a Cast Member via the Magic Key Holder phone line (714) 781-7277.

    See ya real soon,
