Membership Magic Beyond

[To the honeypots]

Sorry if this has been asked. I haven’t been able to read all the pages.

I just called to get the $99 membership and the buy 12 get 12 points. The cast member told me, I can’t do that until 2025 even though I am within the 7 month window. Has anyone been able to buy the points or is this really true?

Yeah. The new membership doesn’t begin until January 12th 2025.

At that time you can buy OTUP.

Just wondering-since it can't be used before January 12th, is there any advantage to buying now vs.waiting until January?

No not really.

Only if they limit the amount they sell and they hit the maximum before you buy.

Do I understand this correctly, it looks like the photo packages are just for the Memory Maker in the parks, not on DCL?

Yes that is correct, Disney World Only. No Land or Cruise

I may have missed this, but does anyone know when/what dates the
MMB Disneyland 3-Day Weekday Ticket with Lightning Lane Multi Pass - Peak pricing goes into effect?

(My sister told me it was anytime we had a trip planned. )

There is a link on the website that you can views the pricing.

Tickets go on sale January 12th when the benefits start.

Yes, but it doesn't actually tell you the exact peak dates, besides the conclusion one can draw that December 20 - January 3 is peak.

But generally I believe that most of March is peak, as well as Memorial Day to late July, Thanksgiving, and the latter part of December.

I hope not. Fingers crossed that it was just for the last part of the year.

I pointed out to MS that all dates are technically in the peak period but they just stated they should have more information in January.

I thought it was crazy that the WDW document was 10 pages of information and DL was less than a page.

Not unless there is a max number of MMB memberships to be sold. But who knows.

Only if they limit the amount they sell and they hit the maximum before you buy.

There is a less then zero percent chance that they will limit these sales.

 

[Hubalorian]

There is a less then zero percent chance that they will limit these sales.

I agree, there is nothing in the benefits that would require a limit. Plus in every benefit that is offered comes with the caveat that they can suspend them at some point.

FYI - I just tried to purchase OTUP for a trip 7 months from today, using the MMB bogo terms. I’m not able to purchase that until Jan 12 when MMB begins. So, if you’re hoping to use that benefit in the early part of 2025 you might be SOL, depending on availability.

 

[MarkNC2Disney]

7 months from Jan 12 is close enough to when my trip in August is so I don’t think it’ll matter (trying out OKW for first time), but still that’s pretty lame.

The terms clearly states that the membership starts January 12th.

I’ve heard some claim that MS said that tickets can be purchased from January 7th but I don’t believe that.

I guess they'll allow to buy the 2026 membership at the latest in June 2025. In case one wants the BOGOF OTU points for a January trip.

 

[MarkNC2Disney]

Yes, clearly. I’m not trying to get into a lounge. Thought, perhaps, I could buy the OTUP for a date in the future when the benefit is active, but evidently not.

Or maybe you can buy OTU points in December 2025 (during the 2025 membership) for a trip up to the end of July 2026??

They could. But, having to buy the membership early gives DVC an advantage of getting their money earlier and locking members into the membership into next year before they know if there are any changes. So I think that's what they'll choose.

However, it probably takes Disney 47 meetings to decide the colour of the pens at the lounge desk, so they might not be ready to announce the membership by June 2026.
