Annual Passes are a great benefit to many Guests who visit the Disney Parks regularly. However, Annual Passholders have a finite number of Park Reservations that they can secure without a hotel reservation.

Let’s look at how many Park Reservations are available for each Annual Passholder Tier:

  • Disney Incredi-Pass: Up to 5 reservations at a time
  • Disney Sorcerer Pass: Up to 5 reservations at a time
  • Disney Pirate Pass: Up to 4 reservations at a time
  • Disney Pixie Dust Pass: Up to 3 reservations at a time

This makes it difficult for local Annual Passholders and those staying offsite that need longer times in the park.

At times, Disney adds bonus reservations for Annual Passholders! They do not count against your total number of passes allowed. We’re excited to share that Disney just added more of these bonus passes!

Annual Passholders can enjoy “free: bonus days at Disney’s Animal Kingdom on August 27 and EPCOT on August 28. This is a great addition before Labor Day crowds set in.

Annual Passholder bonus days are available at Disney’s Animal Kingdom on August 27 and EPCOT on August 28.

How to See Bonus Passes

To see bonus passes, go to the screen to make park pass reservation system as an Annual Passholder. Normally, you will see a green dot or partially shaded dot to indicate availability. However, with bonus passes, you will see a gold star indicating what date and park is available to book.

Although Walt Disney World only gives a few days’ notifications of these bonus reservations, these are a great benefit for local Annual Passholders. We hope that additional “Bonus Reservations” will be available more often.
