Hey Kurt! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I always love the chance to chat with fellow Floridians. I'm happy to help you get the most from your Annual Pass!
One benefit of being a Florida resident (besides sharing pictures of palm trees with our friends up North all winter) is all the options we have for
Florida Resident tickets and passes. Your current Silver Pass is a great choice for someone looking for a more affordable pass, but
upgrading to Gold gives you even more flexibility with fewer blockout dates. And going Gold is really easy.
If you're within the renewal period for your Silver Pass (60 days before or 30 days after it expires), you just indicate the Pass you want to purchase when you renew for another year. You can renew online, in person at a Guest Relations window at one of the Theme Parks or Disney Springs,
or by phone. If your Silver Pass isn't expiring within that 60-day window, you'll need to visit Guest Relations to upgrade. You'll pay the difference between the Silver Pass you have now and the Gold Pass, and your expiration date will stay the same.
Also, if you're on the Monthly Payment Plan program, you'll need to complete your upgrade in person at Guest Relations.
Kurt,
2019 promises lots of fun to come at the Walt Disney World Resort. I hope you have a wonderful year of Disney days with your Florida Resident Annual Pass. If you have any more questions, please feel free to stop by and ask us.
Keep Disney Dreaming,
Kathy K.
