Hello, Austin, and welcome to planDisney!
I’m thrilled to hear that you have two very exciting events coming up in the next few months. As a military spouse myself, I am eager to see that my husband's retirement is a few short years away. The journey has been fun, but being away from our family has been tough. I am thankful for all the family vacations we have been able to enjoy with the Military Salute offer, though. Those specially priced tickets have allowed us to visit both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort year after year. I couldn’t be more appreciative of those moments we get to escape and enjoy some family time together in our favorite place.
I will mention that to enjoy these
theme park tickets, you will need a valid military ID. Since you do plan on leaving the military before your trip, I would try and visit before your ID’s expiration date. Keep in mind that you will also need to
schedule a theme park reservation for the dates you are planning on visiting.
Anytime is a great time to visit, especially since the
70th Anniversary Celebration is in full swing! I’m in the early stages of planning and trying to squeeze in a quick visit just to see the return of
Paint the Night. It’s my absolute favorite nighttime spectacular and holds so many treasured memories, I need to see its return! Be sure to plan to see this parade, you don't want to miss it. Trust me.
Austin, I hope this helps answer your question. Enjoy your visit and thank you for your service, from all of us at planDisney. And if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.
Magical Memories,
Shantel
