Hiya, Kristan,
Thanks for stopping by planDisney! It's exciting times with the release of new
Magic Key passes tomorrow (January 10, 2024)! I am thrilled for the many guests who will become first-time Magic Key pass holders this year. I understand you'd like to get a better handle on the cost comparison and breakdown for each magic key, along with a down payment amount. You can see pricing and compare passes
here. The
Imagine pass is only for Southern California residents living in zip codes 90000 - 93599.
It looks like you're from California, so assuming you are a resident and can provide a valid government-issued photo ID, along with having your California residence and billing address match, you are eligible to make a down payment and then break up the remaining balance in 12 monthly payments. In the past, down payments were about the same price as a
1-Day, Tier 1 Park Hopper Ticket, plus the first monthly payment. To estimate your monthly cost, you'll want to subtract the down payment and then divide the remaining balance by 12.
I highly recommend that you review the
Magic Key Buying Guide for more information and make sure you're logged in at 8:45 am PST to join the queue. There are many magical
benefits to having a Magic Key pass to the
Disneyland Resort, including discounts on merchandise and food (my favorite) and exclusive, limited-edition merchandise. I sure hope that you're able to capture the magic soon and
unlock many extra experiences this year!
Have a magical night,
Camille
