    Hi! We will be in Disney in July, staying at a 2 BR DVC villa. We would like to invite our son’s best friend. He is in the National Guard, but is not planning to re-up when his tour is up in June. If he buys his ticket on base now, will it be good in July?

    Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo, Joanne! Welcome to planDisney. Consider us your very own team of Fairy Godparents; only here we answer questions rather than grant wishes. We hope that with a little bit of help, you can experience the most magical vacation possible. 

    You are off to a great start, since staying in a 2-bedroom Disney Vacation Club Villa is perfectly dreamy! With plenty of space to stretch out, wonderful amenities like a fully stocked kitchen, full-size refrigerator and even a washer and dryer for doing laundry, all conveniently located in your 2-bedroom Villa, you will undoubtedly have a luxurious stay. It is the perfect opportunity to invite friends and family to join you. 

    How exciting your son will be able to invite his best friend. Disney is even more magical when you surround yourself with the people you love to share in the experience. As a military spouse, I have some experience with purchasing discounted tickets for Walt Disney World. I am happy to share what I know with you. Your son’s friend can purchase the 2025 Disney Military Salute tickets from his local base ticket office, but he will need to have a valid military identification card when he arrives at the theme parks in July. Disney Military Salute tickets must be validated at a theme park ticket window before their first use.  If his military identification is no longer valid, or he is no longer a valid military identification card holder, he won’t be able to activate his military ticket. 

    I hope this information helps you to make the necessary plans to enjoy a wonderful visit to Walt Disney World this summer! If you need answers to any more of your vacation questions, stopping by planDisney is far easier than saying “Salagadoola menchicka boola, bibbidi-bobbidi-boo.” So we’re here whenever you need answers *granted*.

    Happy Planning!
