Question about Annual Passes

[luna2341]

I am trying to figure out what time the annual passes go on sale. I saw that the passes when on sale at 6 am for DVC members. Will it be the same for Florida residence?
Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome to WDWMAGIC!

Disney has not yet given any timeframes, but 6am would be a good bet at this point.

I also have a question. I have to purchase annual passes tomorrow. Going to Magic Kingdom. I have a bunch of gift cards and I can’t use them online or over the phone to purchase.Does anybody have any suggestions? Should we just go to guest services in front of Magic Kingdom or is TTC an option? I’d love to hear feedback. I was annual passholder for a decade and around 2018 I stopped going. This is my first trip in 5 years. Can’t believe how much has changed. It’s a tough adjustment!

How many passes, and of which kind do you need to get? If you're purchasing tomorrow I suspect you are getting either the sorcerer's or pixie (as those are the only 2 available at this time to their applicable affiliates).

If you go to disneygiftcard.com you can combine gift cards up to $1000 on each card (if you're not already at that limit). By my math that'll put you ~ $30 short after tax for sorcerer's pass each gift card. It would be enough for pixie (or 2). If anything it'll help reduce the number of cards to use, if the amounts you have on each are lower, and you combine them.

I am planning on buying APs on the 20th, but our trip isn’t until July. When you buy an AP, does the clock start immediately, or can you choose your start date?

We already are booked for the Poly. My kids had all saved up for an AP before Covid, and have been waiting for it to be available again. I don’t want to wait around and miss out.

If it’s a new AP it begins on the first day you use it. Then when/if you renew, the renewal starts on the date you first used it. So if you used it July 4th 2023 you’re renewal start date would be 7/4/2024.

You’ll receive a voucher which is valid for one year. Entering a park for the first time activates your AP and that becomes your start date.
