I thought of that but I'll be honest... I wouldn't trust Disney right now as far as I could throw them... not after seeing the prices of "hard ticket events" like the After Hours Christmas event at almost $250 per person. I realize that the ability to upgrade a ticket has always existed but the last thing I want to do is get stuck with a multiday that can't be changed. Do I think they'd do that? No, but... I don't know... I think with the mindset concerning park revenue, right now, handing over your money in any form, expecting to be able to alter anything is a gamble.You could buy tickets for the time being to make the park reservations and then upgrade them to an AP. That is, assuming they actually follow through and make them available for sale again.
I've had an annual pass for well over a decade. If I can renew it, that's my choice. If not, I'd like to know what the alternative is before I give them hundreds more $$. Maybe they'll announce today... or not. We'll know when the powers that be let us know.
They created the reservation system so they know perfectly well what can result for some people... unfortunately that includes me and others who are annual pass dependent. Busy time means fewer park alternatives which is not the ideal.
On the other hand, I was actually at WDW last month... unfortunately, my mother passed away while I was there so it was not the trip it might have been. Was hoping for something better at Thanksgiving, first holiday season without her. But I have to hope that by the time I can renew... if I can renew... and even that's a question now... something will be open.
