Renewing Annual Pass and New Photopass Privileges

[dmp609]

Hi! I have a bit of a complicated situation. We're going to be at WDW from 11/25 - 12/2. Our annual passes expire partway into the trip on 11/28. We plan to renew them for another year. I am hoping to have the new photopass downloading privileges for our entire trip. Does anyone know if we renew our passes at the beginning of our trip, will the photopass downloads be available right away even though our renewed pass doesn't technically start until 11/29?

Thanks so much!

You won't have the downloading privilege until your renewal is active, but since you'll still have access to the pictures from previous days, you should be able to download them once that time comes. (Disclaimer: I don't know this for a fact from personal experience, but it's how it was explained to me by a trainer.)

Thanks Ravenclawtrekkie. That would be perfect. I hope that trainer gave you good intel.

Our passes were up for renewal on December 2nd but we renewed them a couple of weeks ago. The first time we went in with them was this past Sunday and at that point the photopass benefit became active. You should have no problem accessing your photopass pictures on your upcoming trip once you use your renewed pass for the first time.

Thank you Sytrace!

I was able to see (and download) all photos of family and friends taken from August until now before we got our Gold pass.
Those are able to be downloaded until August 2016. Probably because all the earlier in the year shots ran out of the 90 day expiration window before we had our gold passes.

Have a great time while you are here!
