Hi Brian! Welcome to planDisney. I'm absolutely delighted you reached out. As a military spouse, it's a true joy to answer your question and help you get ready for your magical vacation. I'm honored to be part of your planning journey!My own family has created so many wonderful memories at Walt Disney World Resort, thanks in large part to the special offers for U.S. Personnel and their families. To take advantage of these perks, a military member or their spouse just needs to be present and show a valid military photo ID. And here's a tip: be sure to swing by the ticket window to add Memory Maker at a great discount for Eligible Service Members! I was so excited to see the Disney Celebrates America Salute Ticket this year. The value here is incredible, and I cannot wait for you to experience it. With this ticket, you can visit from January 1, 2026, through December 18, 2026. Just remember, you’ll need an advance park reservation, and there are a few blockout dates to keep in mind:-March 29 through April 11, 2026-November 22 through November 28, 2026We absolutely love making the most of Early Entry and Extended Evening Hours. The parks feel extra magical with fewer guests around! My family's favorite way to stay is right on property at one of the Walt Disney World Resorts. Staying on-site means you can take advantage of Early Entry, and if you choose a Deluxe Resort or select hotel, you'll also get to enjoy Extended Evening Hours. Shades of Green is a great option and offers access to both early and extended hours. Please check their site and see if you are eligible to stay here. It's one of the big reasons we always choose to stay on property. And don't forget to check out the special resort offers for U.S. Military Members.I truly hope this helps Brian! If you have any more questions, we're always here and excited to help. Wishing you the most magical time on your upcoming vacation.
