Can i upgrade my myw package ticket at disney world to an annual pass?


Travel Info
My husband and I are going to disney in september and got 8 day tickets with our package along with the free dining. I was wondering if anyone knew if i can upgrade my ticket to an annual pass once we got there. I am going again in december for 6 days and for 3 next june. Also if i can upgrade should i do it as soon as i get there or will it mess up our dining plan? Thank you to anyone who can help.

Travel Tips
Yes, you can upgrade. Guest Relations will be where you need to go to do an upgrades. These can be found both inside and outside of any WDW major theme park, at both Disney water parks and the two locations at DTD. You cannot do it at a Disney Store or at the airport. The one exception to this is at the International Gateway entrance to Epcot. That ticket booth is staffed and operated by Guest Relations and is in fact a Guest Relations location. Since you are wanting to upgrade to an annual pass, I believe you have to go to the park guest services, I don't think the resorts handle these upgrades.


One thing I can recommend, be sure that you want to upgrade to the AP. Especially if you enjoy the dining plan, with the AP pass you can't get the dining plan, packages, etc. Disney is also offering fewer room-only discounts and are trying to get more people to do the packages. They offer their best discounts with their packages, for example, if you had an AP you would be able to get free dining with your trip, unless you decide to pay the extra and get a one day base ticket for each person go. With the new prices of the tickets being so low on the longer passes, most people that don't go a lot find that it really doesn't save them much money.

I go to Disney often enough that it would be worth it for me to upgrade, but I like the dining, premium and platinum plans enough that I feel I do better just getting a package. So, before upgrading, I would do a little research to make sure it is the best way for you to go.


As long as you upgrade your tickets within 14 days of the first use, there shouldn't be any problems. After 14 days the tickets expire and can't be upgraded. As far as waiting till your dining is over, you shouldn't have any problems, but if you feel more comfortable and have the time on your last day, then you could wait. You could also ask guest services to confirm that you won't have any problems, since you have the dining plan.


Have a great time!

Go to the city hall at Magic Kingdom. It is actually guest services. They will be able to upgrade you if possible. We upgraded from seasonal to Yearly passes one year and they were great.
you cannot get the annual pass unless you are a florida resident, but if you are yes, you can upgrade but of course the price will increase, and just get the dining plan for more days while you are there. (i don't know if this is specific enough for you, sorry!!)
I think the best thing to do is to call guest services and talk to at least two different people (not everyone will know the answer to this question and you might be misdirected). I know the dining plan would be the thing that kill it, otherwise I would think it would be fine. Ask "Anita Answer" at www.allearsnet.com. She finds out all the complicated answers at the world. Best of luck.
Anyone can get an annual pass, Florida residents just get a good discount - to correct the answer above.
