Ticket Price Increase Coming?

If history is any indication--and, let's face it, it usually is--ticket prices at Walt Disney World will be going up very soon. In fact, I would expect them in the next week or two. Last year, prices went up on June 12, a Sunday. A few years back, ticket prices were usually raised in early August. So, if you're planning a trip and haven't purchased tickets yet, now is the time. Some official ticket vendors may have remaining inventory of tickets at current prices, but there are no guarantees.

As far as how much they'll go up, you can expect a one-day Magic Your Way ticket to increase from $85 to around $89, with multiple-day tickets increasing at varying rates. Let's hope that the recent hefty $100 increase from $749 to $849 for Disney's Premier Passport, which allows guests entry into both Disneyland and Walt Disney World, is no indication of a trend in future ticket price increases. Ouch!

UPDATE: The official word from the Disney Parks Blog is that prices are going up June 3, so get your tickets today!
