    Morning just checking if I get annual pass does it start from the day I get it or is in January to January

    Hey there, hi there, ho there, Theo, and welcome to planDisney. I have been an Annual Passholder for years and there is nothing like walking through the parks with the benefits this magical ticket provides.

    Walt Disney World Annual Pass for United Kingdom Guests can only be purchased once you arrive in the United States and start from the first day of use not when you purchase it (unless it is the same day). It expires on your Anniversary Date of first use. You have one year to activate the pass by tapping into any of the four theme parks. The clock then starts and the pass will expire 365 days later. However, you also have 365 days to activate the pass so technically you could buy a pass on March 1, 20XX, and not activate it until February 28, 20XY, and it would expire on February 28, 20XZ (last day of use February 27, 20XZ). Pretty magical, right? Of course, there is a renewal window. Also, if you did not activate it within one year of purchase you could apply the original cost towards the purchase of a new annual pass. 

    Once you purchase an annual pass investigate the Annual Passholder discounts and benefits on Disney Resorts Collection hotel stays, dining, and merchandise. Also, annual passport-specific events will show up occasionally so keep an eye on the Passholder website. 

    Theo, I hope you can make many trips across the pond to experience the surprise and delight of Disney with your Annual Pass. Please feel free to write me back directly with any follow-up questions or tips for your Disney vacation.

    Enjoy making many Magical Memories!
