Disneyland Resort's 'Magic Key': Details of annual passholder replacement program unveiled

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Disneyland Resort on Tuesday unveiled details of its new "Magic Key" program, a membership and loyalty plan that replaces annual passes for frequent visitors.

The Magic Key program "was informed and shaped by extensive consumer research and feedback from guests and fans" and includes four different types of passes, according to the Disney Parks Blog.

Starting Aug. 25, Magic Key holders will be able to use the theme park reservation system to make reservations in advance on available dates and be able to hold a certain number of upcoming reservations, depending on the pass type.

Charter members who join the program within the first 66 days (a nod to Disneyland's 66th anniversary) will receive a special welcome package that will include items such as a branded pin, celebratory button and magnet.
