Hiya Tommy,
Welcome to planDisney, fellow Passholder! It is a fantastic time to visit Walt Disney World Resort during
The World’s Most Magical 50th Anniversary Celebration, especially as a Passholder. On my last visit, I picked up the new interactive Annual Passholder Magnet at Disney Springs, and it is so cool. I loved being able to see Mickey and Minnie come to life!
Thank you for your question, it is a really good one! I know that the pause of new Annual Pass sales has left quite a few questions in the air. While I may not have answers to most of them, I did speak to a Cast Member and was told that you can upgrade your
Disney Pixie Dust Pass to another tier when sales resume. Like when dealing with Dr. Facilier, there is a little bit of a caveat for your upgrade (nothing too major like turning into a frog, of course). If you have not used your Disney Pixie Dust pass when you upgrade, Cast Members can take care of your upgrade over the phone using the V.I.Passholder line at (407)-560-7277. If you have used even one day of the Pixie Dust Pass, the only way to upgrade is in-person at Guest Services. See, not too much of a problem. Besides, won’t it be nice to go and shop with your Annual Passholder discount at
World of Disney when you go to upgrade your Annual Pass?! I’ve been told that I’m a bad influence when it comes to buying too much Disney merchandise, but hey who can pass up the Disney Parks Home Collection?
Let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.
Happy Planning,
Ashley F.
