Gold -This new annual pass type is exclusive to Florida Residents and Disney Vacation Club Members! It includes:

Platinum Plus:

• One year of admission to all 4 Walt Disney World theme parks (during normal operating hours)

• Theme park parking
• Admission to 2 fantastic Disney water parks¹, ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex² and Disney's Oak Trail Golf Course³

The following blockout dates apply to the Disney Gold Pass: December 17, 2015 – January 1, 2016 and March 19, 2016 – April 1, 2016, December 19 – 31, 2016. January 1 – 2, 2017.

Looks like the gold increase is about in the $20 area but if the blackout dates apply to you and you need to go up to platinum it's closer to $100. The platinum plus (premium) is up $80 or $46 on renewal.

If you always pay for PhotoPass then you're ahead of the game but for those like me that don't it's an increase.

Also at the same time parking costs were increased to $20.
