Is it possible Annual passes could sell out?

I was planning on purchasing a new AP until the Genie+ info came out so someone can I have my spot.

Actually, the AP does come with the assumption of access to the parks. Now with reservations required, it is possible for an AP to be denied entry on any given day. Potential for lawsuit there. That they oversold unwittingly due to lack of reservation space, means they are selling what they cannot support.

Yea, not sure I see that as a lawsuit. You'd have to have all 4 parks closed for capacity, and I don't think that's ever happened. If the AP cannot get you into MK, it likely can still get you into AK. Just because it's not the park you wanted that day, it's not a lawsuit.

Interesting. They have always said that the AP guarantees access to a park. Note that they didn't guarantee admission to the park of your choice. That's typically only an issue for the MK on major holidays. But I wonder if the new system brings in some kind of additional concern.

Note: My comments above apply to the AP that does not have black out dates.

Prior to June it was frequent that the calendar was full. I'm not sure what the future holds but I hate spending this much money not knowing if it will ever go back to seeing yellow and grey.
As much as I love all the parks I do not want a pass that only allows me to go to Epcot and AK.

The park capacities were severely restricted back then.

Except you buy the pass knowing you are limited to X reservations at a time and subject to the availability of that. So, as long as you can use it, not sure how that translates to a lawsuit. I think they would have to have every day, at every park blocked for someone to say they could not use it. As long as you can get at least one park on multiple days throughout the year, then you got what you paid for.

When Magic Key was launched at Disneyland and nobody had an AP because they "reset" everything there was a lot of concern that Disneyland would be restricting sales of the Magic Key. People were waiting hours online the first day for the right to purchase a Magic Key... this morning I was able to jump onto the Disneyland website and all of the pass types were available with no wait. They're not going to limit sales, it is just a ploy to drive up demand.

It's actually in Disney's advantage to not sell out AP's and put any restrictions on the park reservation side for APs (as we've seen a few examples at DLR and WDW in the past month). So I would not expect AP's to ever sell out.

I have one unused expired day from my Florida Resident Summer Fun Pass, will they allow me to use the value of that day toward an AP?

Will they APs sell out? NO I don't think so
