Disney plus accesability

LeperMessiah — Thu, 14 May 2026 09:39:06 GMT

I sadly think I already know the (crappy) answer to this. Do I have access to Disney plus via my Sky Variety package?

If I do, can I access the Disney plus App on other devices like a smart TV (as I still have a Sky+HD box) using my Sky credentials?

Just watched series one of Andor and the Mandalorian on Sky+HD, couldn't find series 2, searched and found out both series 2s are (crappily) only on the Disney plus App.

@LeperMessiah I'm afraid, as you've probably surmised, Sky+ customers aren't eligible to access Disney+ because the boxes are too old to accommodate apps.

I know that, can I acess it via other means (Smart TV) with sky credentials?

@LeperMessiah Unfortunately not as the free sky offer has to be activated through sky hardware first (sky q glass or stream only)

@LeperMessiah no, you're not eligible: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/disney-plus-faqs

Thanks for the heads up, will it ever be available on demand via Sky HD at some point in the future like the first series are? Or is that a "how long is a piece of string" type question!

by "it" I mean series 2 of Andor and Madalorian!

I can't find the "edit" button so apologies for multiple posts...I meant on demand on Sky+HD.

@LeperMessiah I kinda doubt it, to be honest. I imagine Sky would prefer you to upgrade to Q or Stream to have access.

Edit: missed your most recent posts. I agree with your 'how long is a piece of string', I'm afraid!
