Disney+ Launches New Bundle With National Geographic Subscription

View attachment 662265

There are three subscriptions plans available: a monthly plan for $10.99 per month, an annual plan for $109 per year, or a 2-year plan for $190(which breaks down to $95 per year).

I am hoping they do a decent D23 multiyear discount again at D23 Expo. I guess $109 is something of a discount. The 2 year is probably the best I will get though.

Disneyland Will Not Add Character Meet and Greets to Genie+

According to a report from the OC Register, Disneyland will not be adding character meet and greets to Disney Genie+ when characters return to traditional, non-distanced meet and greet locations next week.

At Walt Disney World, Disney decided to add select character meet and greets to the Disney Genie+ system, likely due to a lack of experiences amidst high demand for the skip-the-line offering.
