Hi there, BreAnne! It’s my pleasure to welcome you to planDisney!
Becoming a
Disneyland Magic Key holder is such an exciting step—it’s like holding your very own pass to endless adventures at The Happiest Place on Earth. As a Magic Key holder myself, I can attest to how wonderful it feels to have that magic at your fingertips. From park days filled with the most delicious treats and welcoming hugs from favorite Disney pals, to unlocking special perks and surprises, having a Magic Key annual pass truly keeps the magic close all year long.
As for why you may not be seeing the option to pay in full: it is possible to purchase a Magic Key pass that way, but it’s easy to miss if you’re also seeing the monthly payment plan option (which is only available to California residents). When completing your purchase while logged into your
MyDisney account, you should be able to select either paying in full or the monthly plan. If the pay-in-full choice still isn’t showing up, a quick call to the
Magic Key Holders line or an in-person stop by a ticket booth near the Main Entrance Esplanade will ensure a friendly Cast Member can walk you through the process.
It’s also worth noting that as of the time I'm writing this, only some of the four Magic Key pass types are available for purchase—but that can change often! If you have your heart set on a particular pass, I recommend checking back frequently for updates.
And while we’re talking about it, let’s not forget the perks that come with being a Magic Key holder. Depending on your pass type, you may enjoy benefits like
dining and merchandise savings, parking discounts (or even included parking), access to
special extras, and exclusive photo opportunities and collectibles. Magic Key holders also have access to the Magic Key Portal in the
Disneyland mobile app, where enchanting surprises and updates await.
Becoming a Magic Key holder is like holding your very own key to the kingdom—and however you choose to purchase, you’ll unlock a year filled with magical memories at the Disneyland Resort.
Wishing you the happiest of Disney days, BreAnne!
