News Walt Disney World to resume sales of Annual Passes (New sales resume April 20, 2023)

[wdwmagic]

Ticketing is very prepared for queues at Disney Springs, complete with virtual and physical queue.

Wooooooo!!! 5 hours and 6 minutes after this adventure started I am finally a Disney Annual Passholder for the first time since November 2019!!! Pirate Pass for 2 adults and 3 kiddos. A bit bittersweet as we missed out on being able to take the youngest from when she was 6 until 9 now, but will be able to make new memories and she can enjoy things now that she could not when she was little.

Cast Members at Guest Relations are saying they are not expecting to sell out today, but obviously no guarantees.

I was with a friend in GR tell me last night and I believe she said they were told they should be able to sell for at least a week. I also personally expect the number is not fixed forever; they’ll be more than happy to sell more if they expect a softer summer+ of day ticket sales.

 

[ChrisFL]

It would be difficult to sell out if it takes 4-5 hours for everyone to get a ticket

Entered the queue at 6:50am, just purchased on my iPhone. All passes still available.

 

[Gringrinngghost]

The queue is still long. I just jumped in, in a private browsing mode. Latest expected service time is 5:53:53am ET on Friday Morning

Still trying to get through either online or by phone to get hubby's AP upgraded (I got mine updated at 7:15 this morning and oddly I could not upgrade hubby's at the same time, unsure ehy still...). Question though... if we bought our original APs through the FL resident program would we be able to upgrade hubby's AP by phone?

I had 2 browsers going since 8 am and decided to call as well. I got a live person an hour and 20 minutes in, and I am now upgraded to Pirate!

With annual passes does the enter at 2pm without needing a park reservation rule work on days that have no reservations available such as May 4th at DHS?

 

[zappy]

Officially a first time passholder grabbing the incredi-pass. Wife and kiddo will be happy. Now to plan the next year of heading to Orlando.

I logged in online about 10 minutes after the que started. All the best to those still waiting.

They just have to not be closed to hopping that day.

For the prior poster, I believe she said they both already have AP and just wanted to upgrade. I thought that switching those at renewal time was guaranteed. Kind of the back door way in for Floridians as they could buy the cheapest pass and then switch up to Pirate or Sorcerer after 12 months.

Switching at renewal requires that the pass you want is still available, as far as I recall.

I've asked the Church of Latter Day Saints and The Church of Scientology to send me information at that email address.

You're welcome!!

Seems Disney IT wasn’t the only group who endured a rapid unscheduled disassembly today.

 

[Chuckerz14]

Do not give up! All pass options available. Been using this thread for updates.

Nooooo. But thanks for the heads up. Don't know how I missed scrubbing that when I scrubbed the transaction info

Maybe the jokes on you and she's Mormon.

After 2 hours, finally have our annual passes!!

 

[DebbieDub]

Finally got hubby's AP all set. I also use the number listed above and the cm was able to make it happen. I did wait in the phone queue for 109 minutes but it was still quicker if you could get through than remaining in VR online.
