Welcome to planDisney, Mark!
We are all so excited that beginning April 20, all Guests can purchase or upgrade to a
Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass. As an Annual Passholder, I love the Passholder exclusives, perks and discounts that help to make my
Walt Disney World Resort experiences even more magical.
Mark, you will be glad to know that Guests with wholly unused standalone
Theme Park Tickets may upgrade to an Annual Pass. So, as long as you have not begun using your 7-day Park Hopper Ticket, you may apply the purchase price of that ticket to upgrade to an Annual Pass. This can be done in person or over the phone only by contacting
Walt Disney World Resort Ticketing at 407-934-7639 (407-W-DISNEY), available daily from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., Eastern Time.
Once you purchase your Annual Pass, make sure to link it to your
My Disney Experience account so that
special Annual Passholder perks will auto-magically appear when you are searching for special event tickets or Enchanting Extras, for example. I also encourage you to check the
Passholder Program page and the
Disney Parks Blog regularly, as that is where all the new perks, discounts, or special experiences are announced first.
You are going to find all sorts of magical things to do as an Annual Passholder, so
please write back and I would be happy to share some tips or answer other questions you may have!
Wishing you many magical memories,
Shannon
