On the first day of the month, Disney+ is set to launch two new subscription tiers. Among them is a costly alternative which will increase bills by \u00a33 a month.<\/p>\n
The new plan will be called Disney+ premium and will increase from \u00a37.99 to \u00a310.99 a month. There will also be an ad-free Disney+ standard tier for \u00a37.99 a month and an ad-based tier priced at \u00a34.99.<\/p>\n
