When Disney World temporarily closed in March, it raised A LOT of questions for Annual Passholders!
Walt Disney World Annual Passholder
Shortly after the theme parks’ temporary closure was updated to “until further notice,” Passholders who had paid in full were told their Disney World Annual Passes would be automatically extended for the number of days the parks remained closed. Well, we’ve been getting concerned that those extensions still haven’t come, and we’re hoping to make Theme Park reservations soon. But there seems to be some Annual Pass movement today.
One Annual Passholder reached out to say that their expiration date had in fact been extended by the length of the closure. Here’s a screenshot, taken yesterday, of the original date for the extended Florida Resident Disney Weekday Select Annual Pass…
Original Annual Pass Expiration
…and here’s the updated date screenshot, taken today! That’s 117 days added to that Annual Pass.
Extended Annual Pass Expiration
As a reminder, Disney World will have been closed for 117 days when the parks reopen — from March 15th through July 11th. Annual Passes should be extended by the number of active days on your individual pass that were impacted by the closure.
At press time, none of the Annual Passholders on our team are seeing any changes to their original Annual Pass expiration dates yet.

Keep in mind — Disney World will only be extending Annual Passes for members that have already paid in full or haven’t chosen to waive their payments. If you are on a monthly payment plan and have opted out of paying for your membership while the parks have been closed, your Disney World Annual Pass will expire on its original date.
