Annual Passholders
Don’t forget, this will be the first full week with Disney World’s NEW Annual Passes! Because each of the Annual Pass levels are allowed different amounts of Park Pass Reservations at a time, their online portal looks a little different now!
For next week, all four parks have full availability as long as your pass doesn’t have any blockout dates.
