Disney World Ticket Prices (Mostly) Increase



By Dave Shute

DISNEY WORLD TICKET PRICES GO UP (MOSTLY)

Disney announced Friday a set of new Disney World ticket prices effective yesterday.

You can find the effective new Disney World ticket prices here.  For even more detail, see this.

CHANGES IN WALT DISNEY WORLD TICKET PRICES

All prices except one are rising.

In particular, the after tax per person per day cost of days after the fourth has gone up ~33%, from around $9 to around $12.  This is after a 50% increase last year from about $6 to $9 per day.

This is still a bargain compared to the $80-$90 per person per day costs of the first three days of a ticket, so it doesn’t affect any of this site’s recommendations.

On the more positive side, the cost of doing both a park hopper and a “water park fun and more” pass has dropped.  Each separately (for more than one day tickets) is $57, but adding both is in total now just $79 (both pre-tax).

This is interesting, but also does not affect any of this site’s suggestions, as there are no water parks in them…

We are taking our kids and grandkids to DW with park hopper option 4 day tickets and are uncertain what the “waterparks fun and more” option would give us. Is it admit to any Disney waterpark on any of the four days we choose to go to a park (s)? We are a retired military family and will be buying 4 day passes at the special military rate which I learned about at this site. We knew about Shades of Green and learned here that there is one 3 bed room suite which Shades does not mention at their site. We reserved it, a year out, for the two younger generations and we will have a nice quite room of our own. Thanks for the info, Kate

Hi Kate, what you get (for a four day ticket) is four “visits” (in total) to any of the items on this list: http://www.mousesavers.com/regular-walt-disney-world-ticket-prices/#magicplus Can be four waterpark visits, or one waterpark visit and three visits to the other stuff on the list.

You can do all four of these visits in one day, over four days or anywhere in between; and they can be on park days, or non-park days–entirely up to you.

Glad you found out about the three bedroom here! And that sounds like a wonderful visit. If you are willing, take some digital photos and email them to me when you get back next year, and let me know what you thought!
