Bonjour!
Welcome to planDisney, Megan! How exciting, as a
Disneyland Pass holder you will be able to enjoy a whole year of magic and see every season at the most magical place in Europe! I have been a Pass holder over the years and love how much more accessible it makes
Disneyland Paris, but also the benefits that definitely supported my merch addiction!
You cannot make
park reservations until you hold an active Disneyland Pass, so unfortunately you cannot guarantee entry until you activate the Pass. If you are staying at a Disney Hotel, you will be granted access to the Disney Parks with your Disneyland Pass, even without a park reservation.
Did you know you can purchase a Disneyland Pass that is active immediately, so you can begin making park reservations right away? To do this, just visit the
French Disneyland Paris website and make your purchase. Keep in mind, though, that the website will be in French and your payment will be made in euros. You even have the opportunity to pay monthly via the French version of the website.
Keep in mind when purchasing your Pass that the Bronze Passes do have a restriction on Park reservations for your first visit of consecutive days, so you will only be able to make one until you scan your Pass on your arrival date. If you know which dates you are likely to visit throughout the year, it is definitely worth checking out the different Pass validity calendars to ensure the Pass you choose doesn't have any inconvenient blockout dates.
I hope this helps to answer your question today, Megan! If you have any other vacation planning questions, please
reach out to me. I'd love to help!
See ya real soon!
Matt
