Welcome to planDisney, Maryann!
Please let me begin with a warm ‘Thank You’ from my military family to yours. We understand the importance of coming together and enjoying a family trip whenever possible. Getting everyone's schedules to align can be challenging, so I am so happy that you all have your date set.
If you are looking to use the
Military Salute promotional tickets, I do want to make sure that you are aware of the tickets' expiration date. These tickets expire and may not be used after December 19, 2025. Since your visit is planned for after that date, I would consider booking a different
Special Offer through the Walt Disney Travel Company or changing your dates to align with the military offer.
If you do decide to book a different discounted offer, the good news is that some vacation packages purchased through Walt Disney World Travel Company do not need to have theme park reservations made. You’ll be able to verify that once you’ve selected the offer that works best for your family. The Military Salute theme park ticket does, however, need
theme park reservations scheduled. So, if you plan to use those promotional tickets before that mid-December expiration date, I recommend purchasing and scheduling your theme park reservations sooner rather than later.
My family and I just returned from a visit using our Military Salute tickets. We ended up purchasing the 6-day option and took advantage of the park hopping feature. On our last day, we visited three of the four
theme parks. It was such a memorable trip that even my little ones couldn’t believe everything they had completed in one day. Especially since we normally stay in one park for most of the day before heading to the resort for a break or to call it a day.
Speaking of resorts, don’t forget to check out the
military resort offer. Please keep in mind that like the Military Salute tickets, this offer does need to be booked by December 19. 2025.
Maryann, I hope this has helped answer your question about purchasing theme park tickets. If you find that you have any other questions as you prepare for this trip, just ask! We here at planDisney are always more than happy to help.
Thanks again for your service,
Shantel
