Hi there, Ana - welcome to
planDisney!
Thanks so much for stopping by to ask your question for our team of panelists. We love to help Guests just like you plan magical Walt Disney World Resort vacations! As a former Florida Resident and current Annual Passholder myself, I'm happy to help out and answer your question!
While there is currently no financial benefit to purchasing your
Annual Pass in advance, I strongly encourage you to complete that transaction as soon as you are able to. As you may know, the Disney Pixie Dust Pass, exclusively for Florida Residents, is currently the only Annual Pass available for purchase. My sincere hope is that we will soon see
more availability for new Annual Pass purchases, but only Mickey knows what will happen!
To avoid the unlikely but possible scenario of Pixie Dust passes being unavailable once you arrive, I suggest calling 407-934-7639 and speaking to a Cast Member to upgrade your unused ticket now. Be sure to have the information about your current ticket available, as well as a form of payment to cover any price differences. I'm not able to determine what that amount might be because I don't know what add-on options your current ticket has, but just know that the value of that ticket may or may not cover the full cost of your new Annual Pass.
No matter what, you're going to have a magical time exploring the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration. New attractions like
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at
EPCOT and the brand new
Disney Enchantment nighttime fireworks spectacular at
Magic Kingdom Park are just the beginning - there's pixie dust around every corner!
Please let me know if you have any other questions, and be sure to check out the
planDisney podcast for more planning tips and news!
