Hey there, hi there, ho there, Joann! You're as welcome as can be here at
planDisney. Thanks a bunch for stopping by with your question!
If you're planning to spend time at the Most Magical Place on Earth later this year and you'd like to purchase an Annual Pass, I'm happy to say that you have options! The first thing you can do is
purchase Theme Park tickets for the amount of days you plan on spending at the
Walt Disney World Resort in November. Once it's time for your magical vacation, you can decide whether or not you'd like to upgrade your tickets to an Annual Pass. Just remember to make your final decision before you use up the very last day on your ticket! As soon as you've decided to do it, simply head to any Guest Relations location or ticketing window so a Cast Member may assist you. At this time, you'll be asked to pay for the remainder of the Annual Pass minus the amount you paid for your original ticket.
Joann, your second option is to skip all of that and
simply purchase your Annual Pass now. Don't worry, though! Your pass will not be activated until the first time you use it to enter one of the Theme Parks. You can rest assured that, if you decide to buy it now, your year as an Annual Passholder will start counting in November. That means that you'll get to be a Passholder from November 2025 to November 2026... how cool is that?
I sincerely hope this helps, Joann! If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to come right back here for assistance. We're always happy to see you!
Warm hugs,
Ana Paula
