It's becoming a rite of Fall at Walt Disney World: higher prices for Annual Passes and other ticket media. Fortunately the Disney Vacation Club Sorcerer Pass nets the smallest increase percenage-wise of all Florida theme park APs.
Effective immediately, Walt Disney World has increased the price of all 4 varieties of Annual Passes that it sells for its theme parks. The increases range from just 1.8% on the DVC Sorcerer Pass to as much as 5% on the Incredi-Pass and Pirate Pass.
- Incredi-Pass: $1629 (previously $1549)
- Sorcerer Pass: $1099 (previously $1079)
- Pirate Pass: $869 (previously $829)
- Pixie Dust Pass: $489 (previously $469)
The Sorcerer Pass is available only to Florida residents and Disney Vacation Club members who qualify for Membership Extras. Owners must have at least 150 points purchased direct from DVC--or grandfathered under prior terms--in order to buy the lower-priced pass. The Sorcerer Pass offers more than 340 days of access to the Florida theme parks, with select blockout dates currently positioned around Thanksgiving and Christmas.
The Incredi-Pass is available to all guests, offering year-round admission to all 4 parks. The Pirate and Pixie Dust Passes are limited to Florida residents, and contain a variety of blockout dates.
Annual Passholders receive a discount of approximately 15% off the above rates when renewing a pass.
Other theme park tickets and Lightning Lane options have also increased in price. The Lightning Lane Multi Pass maximum price now stretches up to $45 per day for Magic Kingdom, up from $39. Other parks have increases to their maximum rate of $4-6 per day. Exactly daily rates vary depending upon season and crowd projections. Lightning Lane Single Pass increased the maximum rate for most attractions by $1 each, while Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is up $3 from $19 to $22.
