Annual Pass Christmas Eve

[LBarLRanch]

We are traveling to Disney World on December 23 but not arriving until after the parks close. We purchased annual passes and need to redeem them at Guest Services the morning of the 24th. We are staying at Contemporary so we can walk to Guest Services early. It looks like Magic Kingdom has Extra Magical hours that start at 8AM. I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I am expecting it to be pretty crowded that morning. Anyone know what time Guest Services opens and what time we should be there to get in line for our passes? Thanks.

Guest Relations and/or ticketing will be open at least 30 min. before guests are admitted into MK. (Likely earlier on a busy day like that.)

MK will be busy.
But, that first hour will be the LEAST busy hour of that entire day.

Thanks Robo. I was thinking to get there at 7.

Couldn't hurt.
At WDW, it's better to arrive far too early than to get there one minute too late.

This will impact your renewal date but I think the springs guest relations stays opened until 11pm if that fits your schedule better (your renewal date will be 1 day earlier but you can politely ask if they can make it the following day since you can't use it that night). I don't know what time the parks close that day.

Also do you happen to be staying on club level? You might want to inquire if they can help. A regular resort cast member at the front desk or concierge can't help but I think the club level ones have some additional abilities. i'm just not sure if this is one of them.
