    What is the Disney Beyond program?

    Welcome Home, Mark! Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney - I'm so glad you're here! It's always a treat when I get to chat with a fellow Disney Vacation Club Member, and I'm happy to share the details about the newest Membership benefit. Let's get right to it!

    DVC Members were intrigued by last week's email announcing the launch of the new Membership Magic Beyond option. This offer, available for "DVC-Y" Members (meaning Members eligible for Membership Extras), is an enhanced benefits package that can be purchased annually - sales will start on December 3, and 2025 benefits will extend from January 12, 2025 to December 31, 2025. 

    Membership Magic Beyond includes a number of different benefits that fall into three main categories. Here are some of the highlights: 
    • Member-exclusive specially priced theme park tickets for Walt Disney World Resort (Walt Disney World tickets will also include 30-day Memory Maker, which is a great perk!) and Disneyland Resort.
    • Access to special Character Experiences at Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium - A Member Lounge at EPCOT, as well as priority access at the ImaginAtrium, Star View Station - A Member Lounge (Disneyland Resort), and a new lounge that's expected to open in Magic Kingdom Park in 2025. If one of the lounges is busy and a waitlist forms, Members who have the Membership Magic Beyond option will be able to access the lounge prior to others without it. 
    • Flexibility in how to use your DVC Membership! Members will be able to use Vacation Points to purchase the Sorcerer Pass (a discounted version of the Walt Disney World Annual Pass available to DVC Members and Florida residents). If you need to purchase One-Time-Use Points to make a coveted reservation a reality, Membership Magic Beyond purchasers will receive a bonus point for each point purchased (12 points may be purchased for a total of 24 points per Use Year). Members will also be able to make bookings for Disney Collection resorts and other experiences such as Disney Cruise Line, Adventures by Disney, and National Geographic Expeditions without paying the standard transaction fee! This benefit alone will make the Magic Beyond option worth it for our family. 
    Mark, it's important to note that only one individual per Membership needs to purchase Membership Magic Beyond to qualify for the benefits, and that it will need to be purchased each year to continue to enjoy these perks. 

    I hope this information gives you a good overview of the program and helps if you're deciding whether to purchase! Please stop back by planDisney anytime if you have additional questions about Membership Magic Beyond or Disney Vacation Club in general - we're always happy to assist!

    Stay Magical!
