Disney Plus VIP access gives you early access to the latest Disney films, often while they are still just starting in the cinema. Access is an add-on purchase available only to Disney Plus customers.
VIP access for Disney Plus: How to see movies as they are released
VIP Access for Disney Plus is not a standalone subscription, but is only available to you if you are already a Disney Plus customer.
- For Disney Plus subscribers, certain movies are available as VIP access. These are films that are just starting in theatres.
- To stream a film at home as soon as it opens in the cinema, you pay 22 euros for the film.
- You can find films marked with VIP access at Disney Plus. Disney usually offers the new films directly as a highlight on the homepage. Alternatively, you can search for the title directly by clicking on the magnifying glass icon at the top.
- Once you select the title, you will be asked if you want to buy it. The payment method you use to pay for your subscription will be used for this.
- You can watch films that you have purchased via VIP access as often as you like.
- After three months, the movie will be added to the regular Disney Plus offer.
Advantages and disadvantages of Disney Plus VIP access
If you are particularly looking forward to a certain film, but do not want to or cannot go to the cinema, VIP access is worthwhile.
- For 22 euros you can watch a film on your TV at home. Especially at the beginning of the Corona pandemic, this was a good solution for enjoying new Disney films despite closed cinemas.
- Since the offer is only available to subscribers, the 22 euros will be added to your monthly cost for Disney Plus. That’s 8.99 euros or 7.41 euros a month, depending on whether you pay monthly or annually.
- You can watch the film as often as you like. Depending on how many people you watch the film with, the fee is even cheaper than cinema tickets would be.
- However, VIP access is only valid for a single film. If a new film comes out that you also want to stream early, you would have to pay 22 euros again.
- In addition, the film also comes into the normal rotation of Disney Plus. After waiting three months, you can watch it as a Disney Plus subscriber without paying extra.
- So whether the offer is worth it depends on whether you want to wait or see a particular new film immediately.
