Welcome to planDisney, Molly! I'm a
Pixie Dust Annual Passholder, too, so we're in a club, you and me! I bet you enjoy the
perks and benefits of being a passholder as much as I do since you're planning to renew soon. I rarely used the
Park Hopper Option until I became a passholder last year, and I have to say, I love it! Don't tell anyone, but I've started ending every park day at EPCOT for yummy dining around the World Showcase. I think I've tried nearly every food truck at the
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival this spring
! But like Ursula tells Ariel, if we want to cross the bridge, we have to pay the toll! Let's see your options when you renew your Pixie Dust Pass.
Since my Pixie Dust Pass is new, I have yet to go through the
renewal process. But I spoke to a friendly Cast Member who explained that Pixie Dust Passholders have several payment options when they renew. Please remember that these policies and prices are subject to change, Molly. First, if you pay the total amount of the pass at the time of renewal, you will receive a discount of about 15% off the total cost. You can renew in full online or by calling the
Annual Passholder line.
But if you'd prefer to continue making monthly payments for your Pixie Dust Pass, you will divide the total current cost of the pass by 12 to get your payment amount. The Cast Member said you should receive a 15% renewal discount, and you do not have to make a down payment if you are a current passholder who has made payments for at least one year. He added that you are welcome to make a down payment in any amount you'd like in order to decrease your monthly payments. You can call the Annual Passholder Payment Plan line to set up a down payment at (888) 701-4100.
Whichever payment method you decide, Molly, I know you'll continue to love being an Annual Passholder. I used the Annual Passholder theme park entrances on my last visit to
Walt Disney World Resort, which made me feel like a VIP....a Very Important Passholder! Please feel free to
stop by planDisney anytime!
Magic awaits,
Elaine
