Disneyland sells out of its unrestricted annual pass

Posted | Contributed by Brian Noble

Disneyland has sold out of the top-priced Magic Key after just two months as complaints from angry passholders continue to echo throughout social media about the widespread lack of reservations available for the $1,399 pass with no blockout dates.

Oversold. Not sold out.

it’s a cluster of ginormous proportions. Throw in Genie+ on top of it and the local keyholes (who are justified this time) will be out for blood

The word from TDA is that they have paused the sale of Dream Key. Many that have purchased it have found that they cannot get reservations for the dates that they desire. Yes, there is a lot of PO'd people in Southern CA at the moment. The term unrestricted annual pass is a misnomer, as it's use is totally dependent upon the reservation system.

So why are they still selling other keys that also aren’t restricted for most of those dates?

Is there ever a time when Southern CA Disney passholders aren't pissed off about something?

They bought a pass for $1400 that allows them to visit on weekends and holidays. The lack of availability certainly gives them the right to complain about the additional cost without the benefit they paid for.

Well presumably some of them are going on holidays and weekends? I would be interested to see the ratios of people allowed vs. people turned away, but I'm sure Disney will never publish that data (if they even have it).

You'd think that Disney would follow Hersheypark's season pass process for these passes. Disney shouldn't require a reservation since they are good for any operating day, and like Hersheypark they should just set aside X capacity for these passholders.

What does Hersheypark do if X is exceeded? Do they hold the passholders at the gate until some leave?

I get the impression reservations are here to stay at Disney Parks no matter what the long term end result is with COVID.

I would love to see some of the seasonal parks do this for their Halloween seasons.
