Hi David!
Welcome to planDisney.
It's always nice to assist a fellow guest from the UK, and I love that you are planning to buy an annual pass for your visits to Walt Disney World Resort. Those are my kind of plans!!
The Disney Incredi-Pass ticket is an excellent choice and very good value for money when being used for multiple visits. Unfortunately, you cannot purchase that ticket from the UK. Once you arrive in the United States for your holiday in May you will be able to buy your Incredi-Pass at a Ticket Window at any Disney theme park or water park. If you are planning to visit
Disney Springs on your first day or so, you can also buy tickets at the Ticket Center there. Alternatively, once you set foot in the US you can buy your ticket online - if you do this you will receive a pass certificate which has to be exchanged for a valid pass before your first use of the ticket - again, a Cast Member at any Ticket Window can help you with this.
While no start date can be set in advance, your Disney Incredi-Pass will only become active from the first day of use when entering a theme park.
At this time no Annual Passes are being sold in the UK exclusively for UK guests. Our
14-Day Magic Ticket therefore cannot be upgraded to an Annual Pass, nor can it be upgraded to any Annual Pass currently being sold in the United States.
If you are planning to visit Walt Disney World for several days, over more than one trip, an Annual Pass offers good value, especially when you take into account the dining and merchandise discounts offered. You can also add-on Disney PhotoPass downloads and Water Parks and Sports option for an additional cost, making your annual Pass excellent value for money and comparable to our 14-day Magic Tickets.
Current ticket prices (that are always subject to change) are $1449 + tax for a Disney Incredi-Pass (with an additional cost of $99 + tax for each option of PhotoPass Downloads and Water Parks & Sports ). Our UK 14-Day Magic Tickets are priced from £519, depending on your travel dates, and subject to change.
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions and you can also
send me a direct question if you wish. We will be happy to help you plan your magical holidays at Walt Disney World!
