This weekend is your last chance to get a month of Disney Plus starting at $9.99
From Apple TV Plus to Peacock, a number of streaming services have recently increased their pricing — and Disney Plus is no exception. Starting on Tuesday, October 21st, the standalone plan with ads will jump from $9.99 to $11.99 a month, while the ad-free Premium tier will increase by $3 to $18.99 a month. The ad-free annual plan is also going up by $30, at which point it will cost $189.99 a year. Ouch.

Where to Buy:
Fortunately, though, there’s still time to lock in the lower rates. If you subscribe to a year of Disney Plus Premium before October 21st, you’ll pay $159.99 for a full year before the price hike goes into effect. The same goes for the monthly plans; if you subscribe now, you’ll only pay $15.99 a month for the ad-free plan or $9.99 a month for the ad-supported tier. After your first billing cycle, though, the new monthly and annual prices will apply automatically, so be sure to set yourself a reminder and mark your calendars if you don’t want to renew.
Aside from ads, the main difference between the two tiers is that the step-up Premium plan lets you download content for offline viewing and supports Dolby Atmos audio with select content. Otherwise, both provide access to the same catalog of movies and TV shows, including content from Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, National Geographic, and Marvel. That means, no matter which one you sign up for, you’ll be able to stream upcoming documentaries from both James Cameron and Taylor Swift, as well as Deadpool & Wolverine, the second season of Andor, and newer, kid-friendly favorites like Lilo & Stitch.
