    If I purchase my Disney Incredipass now for a trip planned in Nov along with MVMCP tickets to get annual passholder discount, will it activate my pass at the time or not until I actually go in a few months? If so, I will purchase the MVMCP tickets seperate

    Hiya, Dana! Welcome back to planDisney! 

    Thanks for sharing your question with us.  I purchased my first Incredi-Pass last year, and, in addition to making it easy to visit the parks (no blackout dates!), the discounts and other AP perks make each visit even more magical. I’ve found this page of current discounts, which lets you filter results by location and type, really helpful when I’m planning my Walt Disney World vacations. 

    Your Annual Pass is officially activated the first time you use it to enter a Walt Disney World theme park, and you have one-year from the purchase date to activate it. You can activate your Annual Pass by visiting Guest Relations outside any of Walt Disney World’s four theme parks or at the Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs. 

    As you prepare for your November visit, make sure you check out the Disney Parks Blog for a preview of what to expect at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, as well as Jollywood Nights and EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays. There are previews up for each event, and they’ll share more info (like the delicious Foodie Guides) as the winter holiday season gets closer. While you’re there, you can also read about all the announcements from last night’s D23 Disney Parks Panel, and what you’ll get to experience on future visits. 

    I hope this info is helpful, Dana. Don’t hesitate to come back if you have more vacation planning questions. You’re as welcome as can be at planDisney! 

    Magical travels!
