Effective today, October 1, 2025, the price of Walt Disney World’s Travel Protection Plan is rising to $99 per person. This marks a $4 increase over the original price of $95 per person.
Guests can add travel protection to their reservation during the checkout process. They can also inquire about the plan by calling Disney directly at (407) 939-5277.
Disney World’s Travel Protection Plan includes 100% reimbursement of the cost of a trip for cancellations or interruptions. The plan also grants up to $600 for trip delays and includes up to $100,000 in medical transportation and repatriation.
The Travel Protection Plan helps protect you and your family for unexpected covered losses from the moment that you step out of your front door until the moment you safely arrive back home. The Travel Protection Plan provides coverage if you cancel or interrupt your Walt Disney World, Disneyland or Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa package for covered reasons described in the plan such as illness or injury. If you cancel due to a covered reason, the Travel Protection Plan will provide a refund for the prepaid, nonrefundable travel package, including the cost of airfare that is scheduled for travel within 7 days of the travel package.
The Travel Protection Plan also provides coverage for covered losses while traveling, such as trip interruption, trip and baggage delays, baggage protection, and medical expense protection (including emergency medical transportation). In addition, the Travel Protection Plan contains non-insurance services for 24-hour worldwide emergency assistance (provided by LiveTravel).

This is hardly the only price hike guests have seen at the Walt Disney World Resort in recent years. The biggest hit to travelers’ wallets has been the cost of actual theme park admission, which has steadily increased over the last decade.
A single-day ticket to parks like Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios can range between $140 and $200 per guest, with EPCOT and Disney’s Animal Kingdom being priced slightly cheaper.
The cost of dining and shopping has also inflated over the years, though this is true for most of the world, not just Walt Disney World.
One of the biggest changes in the park involves Disney World’s annual spooky celebration, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, which has an even higher price tag this time around. Tickets are already sold out, but guests attending the party are paying anywhere from $119 to $229 per person.
