Hi Jeff! Welcome to planDisney!
Answering questions from active-duty military personnel and military veterans is one of my favorite things to do here at planDisney. It’s truly the least I can do to show my gratitude for the sacrifices you and your family have made in service to our country. Thank you for your service—it’s an honor to assist you in planning a trip to
Walt Disney World.
For military veterans, Walt Disney World offers fantastic discounts through
Shades of Green, an Armed Forces Recreation Center located on Disney property. If you meet their eligibility requirements, you can enjoy discounted room rates at this beautiful resort and special pricing on theme park tickets. I encourage you to visit their
eligibility page to confirm your qualifications. Shades of Green is peacefully situated amongst the
Disney Golf Courses and conveniently near Disney’s Grand Floridian and Disney’s Polynesian Village Resorts.
In addition to Shades of Green, I recommend checking out the
Special Offers, Deals & Discounts page on the Walt Disney World website. While military-specific deals may not always be listed, there’s usually something worth taking advantage of. For example, they offered a discounted 3-day, 3-park ticket for Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, and EPCOT last year. That deal was so great it convinced my wife and me to take our son for his 10th birthday—even though a Disney trip wasn’t originally on our radar! Offers like these can make a visit to Disney more accessible and rewarding for families like yours.
If Shades of Green isn’t for you,
Disney Resorts Collection hotels offer something for everyone. From the spacious Family Suites at
Disney’s Art of Animation Resort to the timeless elegance of the
Grand Floridian, there’s a perfect fit for every family’s needs and budget. Staying at a Disney Resort includes early park entry, complimentary transportation across the resort, and immersing yourself in the Disney experience 24/7. I’d love to help you narrow down the best option for your trip!
Thank you again for your service, Jeff. Please don’t hesitate to
submit more questions. I’d be happy to continue helping you create an unforgettable Disney vacation for you and your family.
Respectfully,
Brent
