Disney’s history of price increases
Since its launch in November 2019 at $6.99 per month, Disney+ has steadily raised prices in the U.S. as it’s expanded content and introduced new tiers. The first hike came in March 2021, when the monthly fee rose to $7.99. In December 2022, Disney introduced a cheaper ad-supported plan and simultaneously raised the ad-free tier to $10.99. Another major increase arrived in October 2023, pushing the premium plan to $13.99, followed by another in October 2024, when it climbed to $15.99. The latest round marks the fourth consecutive year of price hikes for the streaming giant.
