Hi Nicole!
Welcome to the Annual Passholder family. My
Disney Platinum Plus Pass makes me so happy because I know that I can visit the four theme parks and two water parks at Walt Disney World Resort any time I want for an entire year. The very thought of it makes me giddy! I hope you enjoy your
Annual Pass as much as I have enjoyed mine these past few months. I love the room and merchandise discounts I get with my Annual Pass, too. Be sure to read your Mickey Monitor quarterly newsletter when it arrives at your home as that's where you'll find news of new perks available to Annual Passholders.
Rather than linking your Annual Pass to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel room, you actually link it to your
My Disney Experience account. You can do this the day you buy your Annual Pass. (Just enter the confirmation code you received upon purchase to the "My Reservations and Tickets" portion of your account.) Once it is linked, you will be able to download PhotoPass+ photos for free. I have downloaded hundreds of them since activating my Annual Pass last October. If you haven't done so already, be sure to ask the reservation agent with whom you booked your room if there is an Annual Pass discount available. Annual pass discounts on guest rooms are often substantial.
If you have any other questions about making the most of your Annual Pass, don't hesitate to come back and see us again at the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Many of us have Annual Passes and we're happy to provide any information that you may find useful.
Wishing you many magical memories,
Jill
