You can now get the Disney Plus Bundle with Hulu Live TV or without ads
By Ara Wagoner published
You don't need to jump through hoops in order to get the kind of bundle you want anymore.

What you need to know
- You can now upgrade to a Disney+ bundle with No Ads Hulu or Hulu Live TV.
- Previously, users could not bundle with Live TV and could not upgrade to No Ads after signing up for the Disney+ bundle.
- Current or new bundle subscribers can upgrade in the Account section of Hulu's app or website.
When it launched in November, Disney Plus (Disney+) offered a monthly bundle with ESPN and basic ad-supported Hulu for $12.99 per month, but you couldn't upgrade that plan to No Ads or Live TV, which hobbled the experience for Hulu subscribers who wanted to expand their options and unlock more content within the service. There was a workaround that allowed users to get the Disney+ Bundle with No Ads Hulu, but if you'd already signed up for the bundle, you were out of luck.
Until now, that is.
This is the streaming bundle you always wanted.
A good deal is hard to pass up and a great bundle is even harder. This bundle offers three services for less than the cost of some others on their own.
After opening up the Disney+ Bundle to Verizon's Disney+ on Us subscribers earlier this month, Hulu has quietly rolled out new Disney+ bundles under its Package options, including easy upgrade options to Disney+ with No Ads Hulu and Disney+ with Live TV. This allows you to get the bundle you want with the features you want, as well as allows you to modify your bundle after your initial subscription if you find out that No Ads is actually worth the extra $7 a month.
Plan name | Hulu only monthly price | Disney+ Bundle monthly price |
---|---|---|
Hulu | $5.99 | $12.99 |
Hulu (No Ads) | $11.99 | $18.99 |
Hulu + Live TV | $54.99 | $61.99 |
Hulu (No Ads) + Live TV | $60.99 | $67.99 |
I'm happy to see Disney finally taking a more reasonable, relaxed stance on the Disney+ Bundle, as it didn't make much sense to block off bundle subscribers from Hulu's more expensive features. What media company doesn't want to take more of your money, after all? If you're a Hulu Live TV subscriber, the Disney+ Bundle just became a no-brainer, as the bundle is only $8 more than your current bill for not one but two more streaming services: Disney+ and ESPN+.
Like seriously, what are you waiting for? (opens in new tab)
All the TV you could ever want
Hulu has made a name for itself with a huge back catalog and stellar originals like The Handmaid's Tale. And now it's got a large stable of live channels — and it's fully integrated in the world of Disney and Disney+.

This is what I have been waiting for.

There's no savings if you don't care about ESPN+. It adds $7/mo to Hulu. The same price as getting it separately. Give us a bundle that actually saves money without an undesired "value add" and I'll consider it.

I agree with you. In addition, until my 1 year of free Disney+ from Verizon runs out, there really is no need to bundle since I don't care about ESPN either. For now I'll keep paying for Hulu no ads with Bing points, essentially getting both streaming services for free.

So glad I live where they still have free HD broadcast
-
I don't see these packages as options on Hulu or Disney Plus. How do you get to them?
-
Still waiting on the option where I can stream just ESPN and not the rest of the live garbage.
