Hi Ho, Jeremy!,
Thank you for bringing your question here to planDisney! Congratulations for taking advantage of the newest benefits to
Southern California residents that the Disneyland Resort has to offer just in time for the
100 year Celebration at
The Happiest Place On Earth!
The Southern California Resident Ticket Offer for theme park tickets may indeed be upgraded to an available
Magic Key pass of equal or greater value than the price paid for the original theme park ticket.
Ticket upgrades can be done in person at the main entrance ticket booth, or even in the
Disneyland Mobile App. Another option is calling the dedicated
Magic Key Holder phone line at (714) 781-7277. A helpful Cast Members will be more than happy to assist you with processing your upgrade to the Magic Key program.
Once you finalize your Magic Key purchases, you will still need to
make reservations for any park visit that you are planning. So Jeremy, if you have already made reservations with your Southern California Resident tickets, they will not carry over and you will have to
check the calendar again to make sure the dates that you would like to visit are still available.
But remember, Jeremy: this is all subject to availability. At the time that I am writing this, Magic Key
sales are still open without a virtual queue online. But you must make your purchase in time, or else you won’t be able to purchase a Magic Key without True Love’s First Kiss!...just kidding! You would just have to wait until Magic Key sales reopen later this year.
Jeremy, I hope this answers your questions and helps you to upgrade your Southern California resident tickets to a Magic Key pass before the last petal falls and sales are frozen in time (until later in the year, that is)! If you have follow-up questions, you are welcome to
message me directly now that you've got a friend in me!
See ya real soon!
Danielle
