The Disney World Pirate Pass blockout dates include some weekends and many popular holiday times, in an effort to reduce capacity and allow in more guests who are buying individual tickets. The Pirate Pass has notably fewer blockout dates than the Pixie Dust Pass and even has most of the summer open all week long.

The Disney Pirate Pass, a mid-tier Annual Pass for Florida residents at Walt Disney World, does include weekends for most of the year, but it is subject to specific blockout dates during peak holidays. Unlike the entry-level "Pixie Dust Pass," which is strictly a Monday–Friday pass, the Pirate Pass allows for Saturday and Sunday visits during "shoulder" and "off-peak" seasons. However, you must consult the blockout calendar in the My Disney Experience app, as weekends coinciding with major holidays like Spring Break, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and President's Day are typically blocked out. In 2026, a major benefit of this pass is that you can visit the theme parks after 2:00 PM without a reservation, except for Saturdays and Sundays at Magic Kingdom, where a reservation is still required for all passholders. This makes the Pirate Pass a popular choice for locals who want the flexibility of weekend visits without the much higher price tag of the "Incredi-Pass." Always remember that even on "unblocked" days, park entry is still subject to overall capacity and the availability of "Passholder" reservation buckets.
