    Do military personally need to be present for the Magic Your Way tickets?

    Hey there, Taylor! I hope you're having an amazing day. As a military spouse myself, I'm honored to help you. On behalf of everyone here at planDisney, I'd like to thank you for your service. 

    When it comes to the Disney "Magic Your Way" Tickets purchased through Shades of Green or a base, the military member does not need to be present to use them, as these are pre-activated. These are very different from the Disney Military Salute Tickets, which require a valid military ID for activation. Speaking of Shades of Green, have you tried the ice cream? It is one of my favorite treats after a fun-filled day at the theme parks. One important thing to mention is that these tickets still require a theme park reservation, as they are not date-based tickets.

    I encourage you to explore all the fantastic offers available to U.S. military personnel and their families. Walt Disney World Resort provides incredible savings and benefits. I've truly appreciated having these available for my own family throughout the years.

    Taylor, I hope you have a wonderful time at The Most Magical Place on Earth. It's one of my absolute favorite places to make memories with my family. If you need any more help, please come back and see us.

    Your personal planning companion,
    Michelle
