WDW recently discontinued the no expiration option. I don't understand why they would do that. It seems like such a money maker for them. It's like unused travelers checks. They get paid a premium up front and then earn interest on the money until the check is cashed. For some people, it could take years before they use the passes. What a bummer! This definitely puts a cramp in my plans for the future. It was worth a little extra for the convenience. Now I have to carefully plan out exactly where and when we will go to the parks. So much for "Magic your way."
