    If I renew my pass early, will it change my pass expiration date? Or will the expiration date stay the same before I renew?

    Hi Victoria,

    Welcome to planDisney! Fellow Annual Passholder? That already makes us Disney kindred spirits! There’s nothing quite like the magic of knowing you can pop into the parks for a spin on your favorite attraction or catch the fireworks just because it’s Tuesday. I’m so glad you asked this question because it’s one that even seasoned Passholders sometimes wonder about.

    When you renew your Walt Disney World Annual Pass early, your original expiration date stays the same. Think of it as securing a whole new year of pixie-dusted adventures in advance, without losing a single day of your current pass. So if your pass expires in, say, September and you renew it in July, the new one won’t activate until your current pass officially ends in September. Disney magic on deck and no time lost! And you can do it right from the app! It's super quick and easy to keep that magic rolling!

    Renewing early not only locks in another year of magical benefits (hello, complimentary theme park parking, exclusive discounts, and those fabulous Passholder magnets!) but it also gives you peace of mind that your Disney days will keep on coming without any interruption.

    If you ever need help with the renewal process or want to chat all things AP life (like the best lounges, snacks, or hidden gem spots to unwind), you know where to find me. I'm always happy to share the magic!

    See ya real soon,

    Emille
