    My husband is a 100% disabled veteran and I’m his caregiver. What ID would we need to use military promotional tickets purchased through GovX? We’ve already purchased them but I’m not sure if any of his ID’s work for the verification.

    Hello, Sierra,

    Thanks for visiting us at planDisney. And thank you to you and your husband for your dedication and service to our nation. I think it’s terrific that the Disneyland Resort offers ways to show gratitude to you as well.

    Certain promotional tickets are available for eligible members of the U.S. Military and their immediate parties, and valid photo identification from the eligible member of the party is required to activate and use those tickets. The good news is that if you or your husband purchased the Disney Military Promotional Ticket from the GOVX website, you likely shared an image of your husband's ID or your ID with their site that demonstrates your eligibility for that ticket offer. So you probably already have the required ID on hand. You'll need that ID again when you visit the Disneyland Resort and activate the tickets at the new entry gates. Here are forms of ID, which must not be expired or otherwise invalid, that may be used to verify eligibility for using the Disney Military Promotional Tickets:

    • Common Access Card (CAC, except cards that indicate "Civilian" or "Contractor" affiliation)
    • Next Generation Uniformed Services ID (USID) Card (with eligible affiliation)
    • Select legacy USID card types, such as:
      • DD Form 2
      • DD Form 1173 or 1173-1 (must indicate "Spouse," "SP," or "DEC-DB")
      • DD Form 2765 (must indicate "DAV" or "DAVPRM" for 100% Disabled American Veterans)

    Any member of your party using the Disney Military Promotional Ticket will need to be accompanied by the eligible U.S. Military person or spouse when the tickets are first activated. A handy feature of those new entry gates is that they digitally link each Guest's photo with their park ticket for easier verification afterward. So if someone needs to separate from the party after the tickets are activated, that is OK. If a member of your group decides to head back to your Disneyland Resort hotel for a break or do some shopping at the Downtown Disney District, they will be able to re-enter the theme parks again without showing any ID or otherwise needing to re-verify eligibility. That includes subsequent days of validity for the park tickets.

    I hope that helps clarify things for you and your husband, Sierra. Please feel free to submit additional questions for clarification or for other support in planning your visit to The Happiest Place on Earth!

    Have a magical time, Sierra!
    ~Tony
