What could Disney do get you excited about Membership Magic Beyond? Would you be more interested if it more expensive but offered next level perks? What type of next level perks would you be interested in? Maybe something like Concierge Club Level Access and newly designed lounges for each resort? Or maybe, instant Lighting Lane access without making reservations? Late or early check in or out? Earn rewards points for spending? Feel free to “Blue Sky” dream about what you would like.

The buy one get one one time use points and priority lounge access is more than enough for me to pay $100/yr for. Hopefully it stays this price for at least another year.

But I really think they should add quick service dining discounts or something.

I wonder if they could have 8 month non home resort booking without running afoul of DVC contract rules.

The one time use points are why I buy it and after getting priority for lounges when they are packed full solidified it for me. I would love to get one or two instant LL for everyone in my party with no restrictions would make it even better.

Yeah, I've been pretty excited about it and was happy to re-up this year. I used my BOGO points already, so it has paid for itself. And with going 4 times in a year, we'll get plenty of use out of the "Lightning Lane" lounge access. Last year I enjoyed the cheaper photo pass. I was going to buy that for an upcoming trip, but it cost less to buy MMB, so between that and the BOGO last year, I really made out. This year we have an AP that I added photo pass for the entire year, so that's less of a benefit, but as long as I keep doing the BOGO OTU points, and that continues to cost more than the cost of MMB, it's justified. The rest is just perks.

But if I had to come up with anything else they would do to make MMB truly stand out, they could start by adding back in some of the original blue card perks that they dropped. That said, this probably wouldn't sit well with owners who got those perks originally...

Lots they could do. The biggest perk for me has been the 24 OTU points for the price of 12. I would love to see them give you 1-2 lightning lanes per visit. This would be nothing to lose scenario for them, right? You'd spend more time & money in the parks.

I, also agree giving a 10% discount at quick service would be nice.

I do like the chance to meet Mickey & Minnie at Epcot in the evenings. They are two of my favorites.

An easy one imho would be priority registration at Moonlight Magic, it could be for just 1 event per year, but that would definitely make MMB worthwhile.

A quick service discount, maybe a Tables-in-Wonderland-like discount for table service dining, and the possibility of adding on Club Level access would be cool since I am unlikely to ever splurge on a cash stay for that lol. As of now, MMB isn't worth it for my family.

Happy to call the BoardWalk, Bay Lake Tower, and Grand Floridian home!

I'd be happy enough if it was Photopass for the whole year instead of just 30 days.

But if we are blue skying it, I'd want them to give one Lightning Lane Single Pass per day per guest--- but that is never going to happen. So, how about a 25% discount on Lightning Lane Multi-pass?
