For a stress-free Disney or Universal Studios vacation, let the FREE expert planners at Royal Carriage Vacations take care of every detail including dining reservations, applying discounts, and onboard cruise credit.
It’s being rumored that the date for the annual Disney World Ticket Price increase will be on February 11, 2018. That is pretty much in keeping with annual ticket price increases occurring in February. Here’s the projected cost of tickets and the percent of increase for each ticket or annual pass:
When purchasing a single day ticket, one much choose between Value, Regular or Peak seasons. The seasons is somewhat of indication of expected crowds at Disney World. The Peak ticket certainly does a good job reflecting the busiest times in the park.
Mult-day tickets do not have the seasonal aspect. Some annual passes are limited to Florida Residents (with identification) and Disney Vacation Club members. Annual passes can also limit which dates are available to the passholder based on the ticket type.

Tickets will increase soon, likely the date above, and the best way to stave off that increase is the purchase your tickets now or book your package now. Packages and tickets purchased after the increase will reflect the change in pricing, while those booked now hedge against potential price increases.
What do you think of these potential price increases?

Thanks for the heads up. Purchased tickets yesterday and saved some cash. Will there ever be a year that prices don’t go up??? Silly question.

Wow! $70 increase in Platinum AP. If you aren’t a Fla res that’s your only choice. I may not renew and just go once a year for 10 days instead of twice a year for 14 days.

So we have a florida resident Gold annual pass if we buy the renewal today, if my understanding is correct, the renewal wouldnt go into affect until our current oasses expire, right?

Just to show how much things have changed - when Epcot opened in 1982, Disney sold 3-day passes that were good at Epcot and the Magic Kingdom, had no expiration, and could be used by whoever had them. They cost $30. Not $30 per day, $30 for 3 days, which could be spread out over 20 years if you wanted. Those passes are still valid at those two parks if anyone has unused ones. My mom bought a dozen of them and thought she was being extravagant. Whenever she had out-of-state visitors, she would have them use one of the leftover days on those passes. I think you could even park hop between those two parks on those passes. You just couldn't use them at Hollywood Studios or Animal Kingdom since they were issued long before those parks were built.
