Hey folks, I'd like to ask a few questions about purchasing a Disneyland Annual Pass.
I'm currently planning two trips to Disneyland in the next 18 months - one for 4-5 days in October 2018, and for several days before and after 2019 D23 Expo during August 2019, as well as evenings during the Expo. I figure this is enough days to make it worth purchasing an Annual Pass for the first time ever.
My understanding is that an AP is not activated until its first use at the parks, regardless of purchase date. So, I should be able to buy an AP now at its current price, and activate it during my visit in October. I'm sure this would prevent me from using any AP discounts, like for discounted MNSSHP advance tickets at the AP holder price.
I suppose my main question is - is an increase in ticket and AP prices expected between now and October? I know there was one in February, will there be another? When would it be expected? And, am I correct in my belief that if I purchase an AP at its current price, I'm locked in regardless of activation date during the year? I won't be charged an upcharge at activation if the price changes? And, the dates of the pass are one calendar year, so activation in October would cover park visits for 12 months from date of activation (October 2019)?
Thanks for your help!
