This is so exciting!! I got the infinity pass in August 2022 and even though I live in Ireland, it made sense for me to have the annual pass for my 2 trips (3 days each time). It allows me to buy discounted tickets for my guests, have extra magic hours even though I never stay at a Disney hotel, use the side entrance to avoid queues and the discount for food and merch. Congrats 🎉🎉
Yes! lt is the absolute best when you stay off site as you get sooooooo many benefits whilst the hotel rates are so much cheaper so the trips are so much more affordable! It's the way forward! It will be so interesting to see what the new annual pass is like when they release details later in the year!
Thank you so much! I knew the benefits can change at the end of March and October and I was like hmmm I think I will get in just before in case there is a price increase but I was lucky as I don't think anyone thought the sale would be suspended! I am so excited for future trips! I am so lucky to have a few more planned and I think they will be super exciting!
@@MostMagicalGuides agreed! I am intrigued to see what they offer whenever it comes back and how different it will be. Although judging by the US, hopefully they'll be quicker at deciding what to do
This is the best video we have watched in regards to buying the AP - much better than our one. It was all the right info and you had all the right visuals as well. We did attempt the monthly payment which is why we wanted to do our video on it - turns out the monthly payments didnt work and we ended up paying jn full. The only thing i would say is if you are buying more than one pass and they are different, you have to add one to the basket and then go back to add the other. Other than that your video is fab! So glad you got your pass and cant wait to see you in September 🎉😊❤
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment! I have heard from a few people that they had trouble with the monthly payments which is such a shame! I think September will be such a party! I am so looking forward to it!
The monthly payment option is a type of bank account you need a travel current account like Starling because they have IBAN and SWIFT/BIC these are needed to set up the direct debit plus no conversation fees!
Welcome to the Annual Pass club. Tip for people who are going to purchase one when they go on sale again and do the monthly option, make sure your bank does SEPA Payments for the direct debit.
This is a great question! If you have the Disneyland Pass there are no discounts on hotels. (But because of this it is always better to stay off-site now if you have an annual pass!). So I would find a great deal with an off-site hotel and once I know the dates I am going to visit book the first three in via the portal. (If you are visiting longer than three days you can book further days via the portal once you have scanned into the park on your first day.)
Yes! One of the biggest disappointments with the new Disneyland Pass is the removal of the AP discount for Disney hotels. They brought in the 3 day reservation limit due to covid but they've kept it. I do hope they remove it eventually as it is frustrating having to book extra days when you are in Disney and run the risk of days being sold out (although that would only ever possibly happen on the busiest days of the year such as around Christmas or New Year)
Hi! I don't have a video about this but when you purchase your annual pass you will receive an email that contains the link where you can book your dates for your annual pass tickets.
Yes! The process is still the same! You can now purchase the annual pass in the parks again (this was temporarily suspended due to the pandemic but is now back!) or phone 03448 008 898. You can also buy them online via the French website (just be aware the site is in French - but most browsers will have an option for you to translate the page).
Sorry I feel completely stupid..... so instead of buying park tickets if you buy an annual pass you can just use that instead?( I know there's certain days you can't go) So I could get a discount on the hotel with the annual pass?
Ask any questions you have! So the annual pass acts as you park ticket so you can visit the parks as much as you like (excluding blackout dates)! You can get discounts on hotel rooms, which is one of the great benefits! I would recommend booking early just because they have a set amount of annual pass rooms and once they sell out the prices jump massively (and sometimes cost more than the website prices!) so it can be swings and roundabouts with the hotel rooms. But if this happened and you stayed in a cheap hotel off-site if would be a cheap trip as you already have you tickets with your annual pass!
@Most Magical Guides thank you soooo much Sophie for actually laying it out in plain simple English!!❤️ I've been tying myself up in knots trying to understand how it works. Would you get a discount on buying the Annual pass if your disabled?. If I was to buy one before we go in August (have already paid for hotel and park tickets) what would be the advantage? Or would I be better off buying one when we are there?
@@doodles3075 You can only get disability discount if you buy your annual pass at the park not online (and have an accepted proof of disability). If you have already paid for your trip there isn't any benefit to buying them before you arrive.
I do believe that you can get a discounted AP if you are disabled and I think you have to purchase in person at the Studios Park. When I purchased online there was no option that popped up to give you the option to buy via the website so in person seems to be the way! If you have already bought your hotel and tickets for this trip the AP wouldn't give you too many benefits. You would get things like discount on food and merchandise (depending on your pass this is between 10 - 15%) and you get free parking. But the big benefits to the AP is that it is your park ticket so if you already have tickets you almost pay out twice. But if you wanted one for the next year you could buy one towards the end of your trip in person and would be covered for the next year if that makes sense! (hopefully by August they will be selling APs again!)
Hi! Currently Disneyland Paris has temporarily stopped the sale of annual passes but have said they will return later this year. I hope we get an update soon!
I bought mine last august and I selected to pay all at once but I paid with PayPal. PayPal allows you to fraction your payment across 3 months. This could be an option if you feel all payment is too much in one month
Hey did you recent this annual pass? I tried to check in their website and its mot available, I chatted with one of the member staff and I was informed that the annual passes are not available for the moment. 🤔
I bought the annual pass in March and just a few days later they suspended the sale of them! Disney have said annual pass sales will resume later this year with a new annual pass system being launched so it will be interesting to see what that is!

Congratulations! That’s amazing!!!!
It's exciting that the time has arrived where this annual pass made sense to buy!
YES!! BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE🎉🎉
Yes! It is great that now is the time it works out for me to have an AP so I cannot wait to be part of the group!
Super interesting Sophie, as always. Glad you were able to get it before the freeze! Can't wait to see more from your trips
Thank you so much!

If staying offsite accommodation can you get annual pass discount and book park tickets via the portal

@MostMagicalGuides that's disappointing not have AP discount on hotels however that is a interesting tip on the 3 day limit on booking park tickets

I do hope they remove it eventually as it is frustrating having to book extra days when you are in Disney and run the risk of days being sold out (although that would only ever possibly happen on the busiest days of the year such as around Christmas or New Year)
Is there a video how to book park tickets with a annual pass
Hi! I don't have a video about this but when you purchase your annual pass you will receive an email that contains the link where you can book your dates for your annual pass tickets.
@MostMagicalGuides I just wondered if there was a video how to use it
Would this be same process since the annual passes changed
Yes! The process is still the same! You can now purchase the annual pass in the parks again (this was temporarily suspended due to the pandemic but is now back!) or phone 03448 008 898. You can also buy them online via the French website (just be aware the site is in French - but most browsers will have an option for you to translate the page).

hello. is the pass holder still up? i cannot see the 'payment '' icon .

Super excited to be joining you in the AP club! It is super handy to know PayPal let you pay in three installments too! Definitely helpful!
