Disney has unveiled three new Walt Disney World ticket offers for Disney Vacation Club members. Two offers involve Annual Passes while the third offer involves a discounted Magic Your Way ticket.
Now through January 3, 2018, Members may 25% save on a Platinum Plus Annual Pass. The cost of this pass is normally $769 per person plus tax, but is being offered for $559 plus tax, a savings of $210. With the Platinum Plus Annual Pass guests can enjoy:
- One year of admission to all 4 Walt Disney World theme parks (during normal operating hours);
- The ability to go from park to park on the same day—with NO blockout dates;
- Theme park parking;
- Admission to 2 fantastic Disney water parks, ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, and Disney's Oak Trail Golf Course;
- Disney PhotoPass downloads;
- Special offers for stays at Disney Resort hotels;
- Discounts on dining, merchandise, recreation and tours are also included.
To take advantage of this offer, the Annual Pass must be purchased by January 3, 2018 and the first use of the Pass must occur by December 31, 2018.
The Platinum Plus Annual Pass can be purchased online, by calling DVC Member Services, or in person by visiting a Guest Relations location at any Disney theme park or Disney Springs.
The second ticket offer is for members who renew an existing Annual Pass. Members who renew an annual pass by October 1, 2017--and before it expires--will receive 13 months of theme park admission rather than the normal 12 months.
Passholders can renew up to 60 days in advance of the expiration date on the pass. To renew, contact Disney Vacation Club member services or visit a Guest Relations window at a Disney theme park or Disney Springs.
The third offer involves a special Magic Your Way ticket. Members can purchase a 7-day ticket for the price of a 5-day ticket. The cost is $370 plus tax for the base ticket with no park hopping privileges. The Park Hopper option may be added for an additional $75 per ticket.
As an added bonus, tickets purchased under this offer will remain valid for 6 months rather than the normal 14-day expiration period appled to Magic Your Way passes. For example, if the first day is used on August 1, 2017, remaining days on the 7-day pass are valid until January 31, 2018--6 months after the first use.
All days must be used on this ticket by December 31, 2018 regardless of first use. The offer is valid for the Disney Vacation Club owner and up to 7 eligible family members (must live in the same household).
These offers are part of Membership Extras program. New members who purchased after April 4, 2016, must purchase directly from Disney in order to have access to these and other Membership Extras.
