Annual Passes Good Vs. Bad I remember when I was a kid we'd go to Disneyland 1x a year, So.Cal gas company night. I would be so excited I would literally have dreams about it! I would watch MM club and finger through picture books. Now as a parent I feel like my kids won't ever experience that feeling since we all have AP's. Its great going whenever we want, but I don't think it's the same? Anyon More...

Don't take this wrong, but you set your kids up to never have to experience that longing for Disneyland. I did the same to mine and it's really okay. She's going to always remember having tons and tons of great Disneyland memories and being able to visit often, during the holidays, rainy days, slow days and crazy busy summer million degree days. Cherish your memories as I'm sure your kids will have their own to cherish, just not the same ones...and that's okay 😊 - Linzee 515.3 #227 10:18PM

I agree with Linzee. My kids get as excited going to DL every other week as I did growing up going only once a year. - Witchie77 265.1 #869 11:34PM

We used to go and have APs a lot when my brother and I were younger, until I was around 8-9 maybe? And after that we would go once or twice a year. Now I have had an AP for 4 years, and I still get excited regardless :) ( and I usually go at least once a week) - MEHlanie_Mouse 690.1 #146 10:10PM

I don't have kids but my friend just recently bought passes for herself & her 2 minis and the grandparents were against it because they felt Disneyland should be earned throughout the year (kinda like Christmas & Santa). I'm inclined to agree now that I've been with them a couple of times. They totally take it for granted. I'm sure not all do, but in this instance I agree that they should earn it and therefore get excited about it. :) - missariel33 103.4 #2990 11:37PM

My family could only afford once a year and that was awesome. When I bought passes for my son & I 20 years ago, we have gone every week since and I still get all excited when we go. I agree with Linzee. Besides I see the fireworks every night from home. The magic is always nearby😄✨🌟✨ps: this year marks 50 years for me going every year to the parks. It used to be DL only back then. - Plumiegirl 3322.4 #10 11:51PM

My friend returned from WDW and to her surprise over there,the CM enforce the specified FP times religiously! Has anyone else experience this? Will Dland and DCA do the same in the near future? Hope not..

Rumor has it that this will be the case soon at DLR. it's just a rumor right now though - ScooterMike 1959.8 #35 9:25AM

It's been that way since last year...and as a CM that works with FP I hope they banish it all together. - PrincessTianaCM 213.1 #1440 9:26AM

It has been discussed many times in the lounge. Hopefully it remains a rumor. - Jacqueline 546.7 #204 9:50AM

Question: When all the Holiday celebration ends @ the parks, am I weird in getting a little sad to see it end? Or maybe I'm getting sad because the majority of AP block out dates are lifted? Lol

Dave borrows the decorations and puts them up at his house during the Summer. - Experiment818 1598.0 #47 10:10PM

He once fashioned earrings out of the giant, red balls. Baubles are kind of his thing. - susieQzee 480.6 #245 10:17PM

Dave is sad. He wishes the tree would stay up all year. - Mimmy 1405.4 #57 10:00PM

Can they move the tree to Dave's house? I think he would like that! - hatgal76 202.7 #1587 10:12PM

Saturday night dropped my phone on IASM. Before going into shock I spoke to CM Chris. He said not to worry and he would find it! 15 minutes later iPhone turned in and Chris was my savior! Thanked him repeatedly and offered him a VIP guest pass to my Magic Club in Hollywood! He wouldn't bite, so I filled out a guest comment card at city hall! I also attached the invite to the comment paper and lef More...

But really, what a great CM! Way to be so kind about it! - AvidDisneyThrifter220 836.2 #108 11:08AM

Did you offer the VIP guest pass three times? I heard this is the magic number - Villescas8(V8) 589.1 #185 2:29PM

Amazing how wonderful the CM are! Has anyone experienced these actions at another theme park? Just curious? - snappy 272.6 #800 9:40PM

Other parks have employees. Only Disney has CM's :) - sewedna 84.4 #3214 10:39PM

We were shopping once late at WOD, they were out of a princess costume my daughter wanted. We seen some earlier in the day in DL, we wanted to purchase it for my daughter's bday the next morning when she would go to the princess breakfast, the CM called the store supervisor in DL and literally opened the store to let us run in and grab the costume! My princess attended her bday morning with all the other princesses and she had a fifth bday she will never forget! - mrsmluvsit 9.2 #7032 10:53PM

I did not get a chance to get their names but thanks to MW, I know to get this info and let city hall know who was the awesome CM that made our day! I will always do that now! - mrsmluvsit 9.2 #7032 10:55PM

Question to all MW experts. I purchased my AP at the grocery store at the old price! Yeah for me! My question is when I go to use it for the first time do I get the AP at the turnstile, or do I have to venture over to the passholder center? If I have to go to the passholder center can I do it later in the day, or on my next visit? Thanks

Actually, before you even head to the turnstiles, you go to the ticket booths and have them scan your paper/temporary AP card and they'll print you out your actual AP, then, you have a PhotoPass photographer take your AP photo. Simple as that, hope this helps! - dlmickeymouseCM 2350.4 #27 11:00PM

Is this a valid way to buy your pass now that the prices have so significantly increased? Of so, I am going to feel really ripped off since I just renewed my premium at the new "premium" price! - fanofthemouse2 8.8 #7189 11:04PM

I did my research and got lucky in finding my local grocery store with the old prices. Disney said they would honor the price I paid. Most markets sold them until they were gone. - snappy 272.6 #800 11:10PM

It's a rare find to get one at that price still. You got lucky! Fanofthemouse, there's a good chance you wouldn't have found one even if you'd searched a bunch of stores. Most everyone is paying the new higher price now. - Mimmy 1405.4 #57 11:16PM

We just got lucky, but come the following year we'll be right with you! - snappy 272.6 #800 12:05AM

so glad you found one at that price. I seem to be at a ralphs or vons in several different cities each week and always look to see if they have them. so far nothing, I have looked everywhere. I will post for anyone looking, I cannot use them, our exp. date would make it a wash on savings as we would end up paying for 3 months twice. they sell them at lots of places, I bet there is a little store somewhere that no one goes to that might still have a couple so hope you all find one!! - secretagentangel 665.4 #156 12:10AM

If you could travel back in time what year would you pick to visit Disneyland? 1955 I think would be the first among us, but what's yours?
