    If I purchase a single-day ticket and I want to upgrade the ticket to a magic key annual pass when they are on sale, does it matter if the day of my ticket is a blackout date for the pass I am trying to upgrade to?

    Hiya Jonathan, glad to meet you here at planDisney!

    It’s Magic Key pass sales season once again and everyone is so excited! As a pass holder myself, I get the hype! I’m here to share more about upgrading a ticket and offer some resources and tips before the sales queue opens next week.

    If you already have a ticket with a reservation and want to upgrade, you will need to wait until you’ve scanned into the park if the pass tier you hope to upgrade to is blocked out. You will want to upgrade before midnight on the last day of your ticket. If you choose to upgrade your ticket without using the reservation you will both lose the reservation and be unable to make a park reservation until the next open day that has availability for the specific Magic Key pass.

    I do recommend reviewing the Magic Key Buying Guide on the website as it outlines how to upgrade a ticket to a Magic Key in much more depth. In my experience the tickets that are eligible to upgrade can be upgraded within the Disneyland app, however, it can change so be sure to stop by a ticket booth the day you use your reservation to confirm the ability to upgrade. The Disneyland app is also a great resource as there is a Magic Key portal that showcases upcoming events, special offers, and experiences just for Magic Key pass holders!

    Well, Jonathan, hopefully, this information gets you one step closer to a year of magic. Follow Disneyland Magic Key on Instagram for fun announcements. If you still have questions about Magic Keys or planning upcoming visits, feel free to send us another message!

    Adventure awaits!
