Disney Vacation Club offering enhanced benefits for an extra $99

Disney is not shy about charging additional fees for additional perks, such as the Lightning Lanes and now the Lightning Lane Premier Pass, preferred parking for a closer spot to the entrance gate and dining packages for special seating for fireworks. Now, Disney Vacation Club is about to create another level of perks called Membership Magic Beyond.

Membership Magic Beyond is an optional benefit package for eligible DVC Members that is part of Membership Extras, which unlocks an additional collection of offerings available for the specific Benefit Season for a yearly enrollment fee. Some benefits within the Membership Magic Beyond option require payment of a fee (in addition to the enrollment fee).

Eligible Members can purchase for $99 starting Dec. 3, 2024 for usage Jan. 12 through Dec. 31, 2025.

Part of the benefit includes:

Enhance Value

• Purchase specially priced 5-day weekday Walt Disney World Theme Park tickets with one water park visit included. Available for the enrolled Member and up to 7 family members living in their household. More pricing details to come. 
• Purchase specially priced 3-day weekday Disneyland Resort Theme Park tickets that include Lightning Lane Multi Pass. Available for the enrolled Member and up to 7 family members living in their household. More pricing details to come.

Capacity restrictions may apply.

Experience More Flexibility

The Membership Magic Beyond option is available for purchase to Disney Vacation Club Members (DVC-Y) with eligible ownership interests currently in good standing, who are U.S. residents. Members may share certain benefits with family members and their Guests; however, the ability to book, reserve or purchase any benefit is limited to the enrolled Member and cannot be assigned to any other person.

If I have two DVC Memberships and/or contracts you do not have to purchase multiple Membership Magic Beyond options. However, at least one of your Memberships must be eligible for Membership Extras.
