Hi Duane,
Congratulations on becoming a
Disney World Annual Passholder! It is one of the best decisions I made on a recent trip because not only do you get to go to Disney World as many times as you want in a year, but you also get access to some fantastic discounts!
As soon as you purchase your pass, you should be able to see it in your
My Disney Experience app or on your My Disney account. If you do not see it on your account when you log in, you will need to add it to ensure you can make reservations. To add an Annual Pass that is not showing up automatically, click the three stacked lines in the bottom right of your My Disney Experience app then select "My Tickets and Passes." Click the plus sign at the top right and follow the prompts to "Link Tickets and Passes." You will need your confirmation number to do this. If you have any issues, call the
Disney Annual Passholder helpline and they will get you squared away.
If your ticket is properly linked to your account, you will be able to make theme park reservations before you activate it. This will allow you to plan your upcoming trip! If you have reservations at a
Disney Resort hotel, you will be able to make theme park reservations for each day of your stay! If you are not staying at a Disney Resort hotel, you will be able to hold up to 5 theme park reservations with the Disney Incredi-Pass. Once you arrive at Disney World, you will need to activate your Annual Pass before you enter the theme parks. This can be done quickly at one of the ticket counters on your way into each of the theme parks.
Don't forget to check out all of the
Disney Annual Passholder deals. Several stores throughout Disney World will give you 20% off your merchandise purchases which will add up if you enjoy shopping as much as I do!
Happy Planning,
Jenna
