2016 RESORT PRICE SEASONS AT WALT DISNEY WORLD
The material below shows resort price seasons at Walt Disney World at different times of the year in 2016.
(For 2017 prices, see this, and for 2018 prices, see this.)
Only one-day ticket prices vary over the course of the year–multi-day tickets do not, although they typically have an annual increase during the year. See this for more on ticket prices.
Resort prices, however, can be almost twice as high during some periods as they are at others.
2016 DISNEY WORLD PRICE SEASONS
Below are Walt Disney World 2016 resort price seasons by resort type.
“X% Higher” means compared to the lowest prices of the year. Because these increases are different on some weekends vs. weekdays, increases are averaged across the recommended 8 night visit.
In addition to the details below, Disney ups prices an additional $10-50 per night during certain weekends and holidays–particularly over the Marathon weekend, Martin Luther King Day weekend, Memorial Day weekend, 4th of July weekend, and Columbus Day weekend.
You can see–well, maybe you can see–the full prices over the year from the chart above.

Shannon, those are the most crowded and expensive days of the year. There’s no real difference among days between Christmas and New years. Thousands of others will also be using DAS and a placard, so there too you won’t see much difference…Sorry to not be much help…
