    My sister is planning a trip for our families and will be purchasing tickets using her military id. Will she only need to be present for entry on the first day we visit the parks or will she need to be present for entry each day we visit?

    Hey, Howdy, Hey, Erica! 

    Thanks for stopping by planDisney. Here you will find a group of the rootinest, tootinest Disney vacation enthusiasts this side of Walt Disney World! You’ve got a friend in me, Erica, so I will gladly round up an answer for you about using the 2025 Disney Military Salute Tickets

    Yee haw! You are in for a treat using these specially priced theme park tickets. As a military spouse, I have used the Walt Disney World promotional theme park tickets for years. It is such an incredible offer Disney extends to salute our U.S. Military Members and their families. While Disney Military Salute tickets are not valid until activated by the Eligible Service Member or their spouse, this is only necessary before your first use. They can activate theme park tickets at a Theme Park ticket window located at one of the four theme parks or at the Guest Services Welcome Center in Disney Springs. I like activating our theme park tickets as soon as we arrive, usually a day before our first park visit so it's out of the way. Once your Disney Military Salute tickets are active, you can use them without having your sister present. 

    Did you know you do not have to use all the days on your Disney Military Salute tickets in one visit? You can spread the days out however you like (being aware of any block-out dates) until they expire on December 19, 2025. My family usually buys the 6-Day Disney Military Salute Ticket and spreads the days throughout the year. The only thing better than visiting The Most Magical Place on Earth is visiting multiple times!

    Tell your sister to check out the special pricing for Eligible Service Members and their spouses on Memory Maker, a PhotoPass Product at Walt Disney World Resort. She can purchase a Memory Maker at a discounted price at one of the theme park ticket windows. If you are all connected on the Family and Friends List on your MyDisney accounts, she can access and download all the photos from your visit. 

    I hope you have an unforgettable time visiting Walt Disney World with your sister and your families! Please stop back by planDisney if we can help answer any more of your questions, Erica. We’re here and happy to help!
