Hi Carey, and welcome to planDisney! We’re so happy you stopped by with your question. I would love to start by thanking you for your family’s service! With the 250th anniversary of America this year, it’s the perfect time for military families to visit the Walt Disney World Resort!
I love the
Disney Military Salute program and have been fortunate to benefit from it for many years. This year, the addition of the Disney Celebrates America Military Salute was an incredible surprise and has given me the opportunity to visit the Most Magical Place on Earth even more! Both the Disney Military Salute tickets and the Disney Celebrates America tickets require theme park reservations. However, this is a quick and easy process that can be done in just a few minutes.
The first step you’ll need to take is to link your tickets in your
My Disney Experience account using the code on the tickets. In the My Disney Experience app, click on “My Tickets & Passes.” Then click on the + in the upper righthand corner. From there, click “Link Tickets & Passes.” Once you’ve linked your tickets, you’re all set to make theme park reservations. Now click on (☰) and scroll down until you find “Park Reservations.” From there, you can select your desired parks and days.
Bonus tip: If you are eligible for the Disney Military Salute offers, you are also eligible for an amazing discount on
Memory Maker. For just $98 (subject to change), you will be able to download all of the Disney PhotoPass media from your vacation, which includes select attraction photos and videos, plus all of the beautiful images taken by Disney PhotoPass photographers throughout the four theme parks. I always purchase Memory Maker because those vacation memories are priceless! You can purchase it at this special military rate by visiting a Walt Disney World ticket window at any point during your vacation.
Carey, I hope your visit to Walt Disney World is filled with many magical moments! If you have any more questions, be sure to
stop back by and see me. I love adding extra pixie dust to your Disney vacation planning!
Your pal,
Casey
