With the announcement of Walt Disney World closing due to Coronavirus (COVID-19), Disney has also announced that Annual Passes will be extended by the number of days impacted by the closure.
Walt Disney World annual passes will be extended by the number of days the parks are closed, March 16, 2020 through March 31, 2020.
No action is required by Annual Passholders to get the extra days. Disneyland is expected to announce a similar extension, but hasn’t done so as of publish time.
The following statement has been released by Walt Disney World:
In an abundance of caution and in the best interest of our Guests and Cast Members, we are proceeding with the closure of our theme parks at Walt Disney World Resort, beginning March 16, through the end of the month.
The Walt Disney Company will pay its Cast Members during that closure period.
Disney Resort hotels will remain open until further notice. Disney Springs will also remain open.
We will continue to stay in close contact with appropriate officials and health experts.
