Can I let someone use my Disney annual pass?

Yes! You can link Annual Passes to family and friends if they are connected to your Family & Friends list. Link an Annual Pass to My Disney Experience.



Absolutely not; letting someone else use your Disney Annual Pass is a violation of the terms and conditions and will likely result in the permanent revocation of the pass without a refund. In 2026, Disney utilizes advanced biometric technology—specifically fingerprint scanners or "MagicBand+" linking—at the park entrances to ensure the person using the pass matches the digital record. Passes and tickets are strictly non-transferable once they have been used for the first time. If a Cast Member identifies that a pass is being used by someone other than the registered owner, the pass is typically confiscated immediately, and the owner may be banned from purchasing future passes. If you have an unused ticket, you can often reassign it to another person in your "Friends & Family" list via the app, but once that pass is activated and "tied" to a specific individual's biometrics, it belongs to them exclusively for the duration of the pass's validity.
