    Hi, I have a ticket for Tuesday 8/26 and I was hoping to use it as the down payment for an Imagine key pass. Would I still be able to purchase the pass if my real ID is still being processed by the DVM? (I do have a temporary ID and gov. issued passport.

    Hey there, hi there, Michelle! Welcome to planDisney. We are so glad you stopped by!

    Oh boy! What luck, or should I say magic, you have to have a planned visit on the day that Magic Key sales resume! Previously, when a Guest wanted to upgrade their ticket to a Magic Key, they would be directed to do this through the Disneyland app. Before the end of the day, the day you use the ticket, or the last day of use of a multiday ticket, you would head to the Tickets and Passes section of the app. Under the ticket, it should let you know if it was eligible to upgrade. If you want the Imagine Key for SoCal residents, the important step is to make sure that your current address with the qualifying zip code is updated in your MyDisney account. This will populate the Imagine Key option if you qualify, as well as the option to make monthly payments. 

    Once you become a Magic Key holder, you will have even more magic unlocked! I love grabbing a reservation to the Magic Key Terrace at dusk and being able to watch the lights, sights, and sounds of all of the park below. 

    Michelle, thanks so much for dropping by with your question! Here's to a year full of magic!
