DVC Direct Price Increase Coming February 2026

[Sandisw]

What surprises me is that they are doing same base price to CFW.

In early 2022 when VGF2 went on sale direct price was $207pp, same as RIV. They both went up to $217pp later that year.

$207pp in 2022 is $234pp in today’s dollars.

$217pp in 2022 is $246pp in todays dollars.

Riviera went on sale early 2019 at $188pp. After it opened Dec 2019 price went to $195pp.
In today’s dollars that would be $236pp and $245pp respectively.

Inflation makes me feel old. Now I know what Yogi Berra meant by ‘A nickel ain’t worth a dime anymore.’

WDW is such a perfect use case for that quote! The guy was a genius.

They needed to slow down sales a bit somehow!

He was a genius. It’s impossible for me to read his quotes without hearing his voice saying it.

 

[The Jackal]

My poor Aulani will never sell out.

Don’t worry. It won’t be alone. CFW won’t sell out either, if it stays separate from Lakeshore (Reflections) Lodge. If they combine them then I can see it eventually selling out.

At least VGC is holding steady…at $330

maybe not a dire emergency to buy now if one is on the proverbial fence.

It’s more important for those smaller add ons. Those rarely have much in the way of incentives.

 

[HyperspaceMountainPilot]

Yup we need more inventory declared so it's a little easier to book

Don’t look at me, I already did my part by buying 200 AUL direct in a single contract before I knew any better.

At least VGC is holding steady…at $330

You could say VGC is even getting cheaper in real dollars.

 

[Wedgeout]

Just shocked..never thought the price of a loaf of bread would climb so high! Imagine what you could buy for $243 in 1991.

For sure, although the total dollar amount is small if the contract is small. I can talk myself into anything

Who's getting fomo and buying before Feb 10?

If my heart can convince my brain and my pocketbook (does anyone call it a pocketbook anymore)

Or as we say in New England “pocka-book”

I really think this gives more evidence that the Cabins and Lakeshore will be combined and they are working towards that now. People that invested in the cabins early get a magical moment with lower prices for their investment and these prices are coming up to parity with Lakeshore begins selling.

I wonder if they announce sold out resort increases like they announce active resorts or if they just do it and someone just stumbles upon it and lets the masses know.

Yeah, I was thinking about that too. I imagine it is a much “quieter” announcement, if any at all.

Pulled up the DVC News article on this from last year. Looks like they did basically just do a "quiet" increase in the "sold out" resorts at the same time the active selling resorts price increases were effective. So, presumably it will work the same this year. We'll see on Feb. 10th what they've decided to increase on any of the "sold-out" resorts.
