    If I renewed my annual pass, do I need to get a new physical card?

    Howdy Jamie!

    Welcome to planDisney. Being Disney Annual Passholders has been a great investment for our family since we travel to Walt Disney World so frequently. There are also many great perks that come with being a pass holder, and I would like to share a few with you. Let’s see what we can do about answering your question. 

    So you can certainly get a physical card for your annual pass from guest services if you would like. If you are like me and prefer to go digital, you have quite a few options. You can find your Annual Pass in your My Disney Experience app. From the home screen, tap on the 3 bars (≡) at the bottom right-hand corner, then click on My Tickets & Passes. If you tap the Save to Wallet button, it will save to your phone’s wallet, and you can use it to scan into the parks and for the Lightning Lane entrance. Of course, you can always use your MagicBand+ for entrance as well. I’ve also seen more and more guests use the wallet feature on their smartphones. One thing to note is that regardless of whether you have a physical or digital card, you should always have your photo ID with you for verification, especially when taking advantage of any benefits or perks, such as merchandise discounts. 

    If you have not already done so, be sure to check out the passholder BUZZ section of the My Disney Experience app for the latest passholder news and information. In fact, the latest passholder magnet is not available at EPCOT and features characters from Toy Story. If you are visiting this summer, there are also a ton of VIP Passholder benefits and perks, including extra discounts at select dining locations and passholder-only merchandise. 

    Jamie, I hope you will soon be able to display your magnet and have a magical year as an Annual Passholder. Please stop by planDisney anytime, and we’ll be happy to assist you.

    See ya real soon,
    Robert
