Credit: DisneyDisney Parks has begun issuing extensions to all existing Premier Passport accounts while the Disneyland Resort remains closed.
The extensions are occurring in 30-day increments, as there has not yet been a reopening date set for Disneyland Resort (the Premier Passport allows access to both Disneyland and Disney World).
According to an email sent to Premier Passholders, Disney said the following:
“In the coming weeks, we will be applying extensions to Premier Passports on the verge of expiration. These 30-day extensions are being made so that Passports remain active — and available to make park reservations at Walt Disney World® Resort — while the Disneyland® Resort theme parks remain closed. Extensions will continue on a monthly basis until a theme park reopening date has been identified for the Disneyland® Resort. At this time, a final extension will be applied to all Premier Passports based on the theme park closure period so you can return to making magical memories again on both coasts.”

This news comes before extensions have been reflected for those anxiously waiting with regular Disneyland Annual Passholders since no reopening date has yet been announced.
