Walt Disney World Annual Passholders will soon be able to visit the parks without needing Disney Park Pass reservations.

Annual Passholder entrance at EPCOT

In 2024, Disney plans to offer select days on which Annual Passholders and Disney cast members may visit Walt Disney World theme parks without needing a park reservation.

Once introduced, Disney will roll out these good-to-go days on an ongoing basis. This will be in addition to the recent update which offers Passholders the opportunity to visit the theme parks after 2 p.m. without needing a park reservation, except on Saturdays and Sundays at Magic Kingdom Park.

Good-to-go days may vary by park, and pass block out dates and capacity limitations continue to apply like they do today. Please stay tuned for more details on good-to-go days.

Disney does not think their passholders are stupid..... They just hate them.

I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop on how ****ed AP holders are going to get when they move to allowing people to pay for prebooked Genie+ attractions, likely as part of vacation packages that AP holders might not necessarily be eligible for because we don’t need tickets. I hope they don’t do this and allow anyone staying at a Disney hotel to purchase, but I could see it. Back when Genie+ first launched AP holders could not buy it in advance for length of trip but regular ticket media could.

I think what Disney charges for the Incredi-pass, which I bought, I'm in the same boat as having to make reservations despited staying on property! Meanwhile, my mom, can buy dicounted tickets and not worry about it! I definitely left a long comment when I got the AP survey several weeks ago (not that it'll do any good). Along with the fact that I never get these so-called AP newsletters, have never been able to get a PH magnet (why can't they mail these??), etc.

Unfortunately, this is the result Disney wants. They hate AP holders

I really hate the PPRs. Oh boy, if you are booking a stay on property, your should not need a PPR no matter what entry ticket you use, their systems are smart enough to figure that out. Pre pandemic our family held 3 platinum passes for many many years. The good ol' days are over.

Thanks Disney! Disney Incredi-Pass $1,449 +tax and I have to have a reservation to come even if I book a stay on property. I am taking my nephews to Disney and because they don't have AP, I could only book a stay with AP discount. No deal on tickets for them and I had to make reservations for my family but not my nephews. How much harder do you want to make it on people with AP. I will not be renewing the AP once it's up. Disney has made it clear to me that they want you to buy a package to visit.

Lol. I can't imagine these "good to go" days on days when any passholder can easily get a day of reservation at any park have any impact on guest behavior whatsoever. They are really stupid, and it’s a bad look for Disney because it makes it look like they think that their passholders are really stupid.

Walt Disney World has added two Annual Passholder good-to-go days on April 22 and 23.

The park hopping phone number also said MK was closed to hopping.

It was intentional. They also stopped selling day-tickets to MK on that day.

There was a recent pause in park hopping to MK. Whether it was a glitch in the app or not was debated but certainly there were notifications that hopping to Mk was paused. It didn’t last very long. I think the only other time was the day of the 50th, again at MK.

With park reservations dropped for some, have they reimplement phased capacity closures? We'll be arriving July 4th, and would like to grab a TS dinner in Epcot. Tickets for us is part of a package.

The point being that MK has reached it max (the much reduced max from Christmases long ago), and that they're keeping people out -- APers who want to hop, and people buying tickets for MK for today.
