Hi there, Jacqueline!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney, we're happy to meet you. I hope you were able to purchase your
Magic Key, there is so much going on in the parks this year!
Every time you use a new ticket at the Disneyland Resort you'll need to take a quick moment to say "Cheese!" for a photo to be matched to your ticket. That means on subsequent visits when you scan your ticket the Cast Member will easily be able to verify that the ticket is yours since tickets are non-transferable. It's usually very quick and easy! Even with a photo already associated with a multi-day ticket that you wish to upgrade to a Magic Key, the first time you use your Magic Key you'll need to update your photo. It shouldn't take long, then you'll be off for a whole year of Disney parks magic!
Have you been able to enjoy the
Disney100 Celebration yet, Jacqueline?
Mickey's Toontown has just reopened, and it's more delightful than ever! I hope you'll take some time to visit Mickey and his pals on your next visit! I also highly recommend the wonderful
"Magic Happens" parade, the Moana float is my favorite!
Keep moving forward!
Amanda
