Sky TV customers are in for a treat with a recent upgrade that includes free access to Disney+. This £5.99 perk is part of the updated Sky Ultimate plan, offering subscribers access to popular content like Pixar, Star Wars, Disney, and Marvel at no extra cost. The revamped package will also introduce HBO Max Basic and Hayu soon.
The integration of Disney+ across Sky Glass, Sky Stream, and Sky Q allows for seamless viewing experiences, including features like Continue Watching, search, and voice control. Additionally, Sky Cinema subscribers will have access to a new Disney+ Cinema channel.
For those not yet with Sky, the Sky Ultimate package is available to all UK homes starting at £24 per month. This plan includes Netflix Standard with Ads, Disney+ Standard with Ads, HBO Max Basic with Ads (launching soon), Hayu (full access from July), and over 130 Sky channels.
Sophia Ahmad, Sky’s Chief Consumer Officer, emphasized the goal of bringing Sky, Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, and Hayu together in one subscription to enhance the viewing experience. Existing customers will receive access to the expanded lineup at no extra cost. Sky’s aim is to simplify streaming and provide a more unified viewing experience for its users.
