    Hi there! We are planning a trip in late Sept/Oct of ‘26 with 10 people with 3 veterans & 1 retired USMC vet. We would like to inquire about the Military tickets being offered this year & how does the reservations system work. Thanks 4 answers!

    Hey there, Tiffany! 

    Welcome to planDisney! As a military spouse, it'll be my pleasure to help you today. On behalf of all my pals, I'd like to thank you and your friends for your service.

    Walt Disney World Resort offers fantastic benefits for U.S. military personnel to make your visit even more magical. One of my favorite options is the Military Salute Tickets, available to eligible guests. I especially love the Disney Celebrates America Military Salute Ticket, now available. These tickets are an excellent way to experience the theme parks multiple times at a great value. You also have the 4-6 day Military Salute Tickets if you need them only for a specific timeframe. Personally, I highly recommend them. I'm even considering them for my own family! You can enjoy the magic of Walt Disney World from January 1 to December 18, 2026, with these tickets.

    Disney also offers specially priced rooms for U.S. military personnel and their families. To check availability and book, simply call and speak with a Disney Cast Member, who will be happy to assist you with dates and options.

    Bonus tips: Military Salute Tickets require a valid theme park reservation, which you can easily make online through your My Disney Experience account. If you purchase your Military Salute Tickets at your local base, you'll need to activate them upon arrival at the ticket counter in front of any theme park or at the Disney Ticket Center in Disney Springs. Please remember to bring your valid military ID! Tickets purchased directly from Shades of Green are pre-activated. Also, remember to ask about the specially priced Memory Maker, available exclusively for military members.

    Tiffany, I hope this information has been helpful. It's truly been an honor to assist you today. If you have any more questions, please feel free to reach out anytime.

    Your personal planning companion, 
    Michelle
