Sky TV customers are in for a treat with a recent free upgrade that includes full access to Disney+ as part of the updated Sky Ultimate plan. This new perk, valued at £5.99, allows subscribers to enjoy popular content from Pixar, Star Wars, Disney, and Marvel at no extra cost.
The enhanced package doesn’t stop at Disney+. Sky is set to introduce HBO Max Basic and Hayu to its lineup soon, providing customers with a wide range of entertainment options. The integration of Disney+ across Sky Glass, Sky Stream, and Sky Q platforms ensures a seamless viewing experience with features like Continue Watching, search functions, and voice control.
Additionally, Sky Cinema subscribers will gain access to a dedicated Disney+ Cinema channel. For those not yet with Sky, the Sky Ultimate package is available to all UK households starting at £24 per month.
The £24 plan includes Netflix Standard with Ads, Disney+ Standard with Ads, HBO Max Basic with Ads (launching on March 26 in the UK & Ireland), Hayu (full access from July), and over 130 Sky channels. Sophia Ahmad, Sky’s Chief Consumer Officer, emphasized the goal of simplifying the viewing experience by bringing together Sky, Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, and Hayu under one subscription.
Existing customers will enjoy the expanded lineup at no extra cost, while NOW Entertainment users will receive HBO Max within the app without additional charges. Sky’s initiative to streamline streaming services aims to provide a more unified viewing experience for viewers.
