    I'm taking one of my adult autistic daughters to Caribbean Beach for 5 days in December. I already have the Disney Salutes America pass. Would I be better off getting her a Disney Salutes America pass or a 5 day park hopper military ticket?

    Hi Rochelle! We’re so happy to see you back with another great question, and thank you for trusting planDisney with your vacation planning questions for so many years!

    It sounds like you have a special trip ahead with your daughter! Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort is a fantastic choice. I had a wonderful stay there with my son just a couple of months ago. The colorful buildings and laid-back tropical vibes will make you feel like you’ve escaped to the islands while still being right in the heart of the magic at Walt Disney World Resort! If you haven’t dined at Sebastian’s Bistro recently, I definitely recommend adding it to your plans. The family-style meal is absolutely delicious and has become one of my favorites!

    Now for your tickets, the good news is that you have fantastic military ticket offers to choose from! The most important consideration is whether you think you’ll return to Walt Disney World with your daughter in 2026. The 5-Day Disney Military Salute Ticket with Park Hopper is $429 (subject to change), but the Disney Celebrates America Ticket with Park Hopper is only a little more at $499 (also subject to change). That would allow her to return again for unlimited visits through December 18, 2026, with the exception of a blockout period from November 22 through November 28. If you are sure this will be her only visit, you could save about $70 on the 5-Day Military Salute Ticket. However, if you think there’s a chance you’ll bring her back for another visit, the Disney Celebrates America Ticket would be my recommendation. Either way, these ticket offers are amazing and offer huge savings!

    Rochelle, I’m sending you wishes for a magical visit with your daughter! If you have any more questions, you know where to find us and we’d love to help. We hope to see you again soon!

    With faith, trust, & pixie dust,
    Casey
