Welcome to planDisney, Judy! Planning a winter visit to the Disneyland Resort is always exciting, especially with the festive holiday season in full swing. I'd be happy to help you explore the special offers currently available for the
Disneyland Hotel and
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.
Great news! Currently, the Disneyland Resort is
offering special rates on select rooms at the Disneyland Hotel and Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa for eligible active and retired U.S. military members and their spouses. The offer is valid for select stays from January 1 through December 31, 2026, so it sounds like it could fit perfectly with your winter vacation plans. To take advantage of the offer, simply give the Disneyland Resort Reservations team a
call to check availability for your travel dates. Just a quick note: when you arrive, you will just need to present a valid military ID at check-in to confirm the special rate.
You may also want to ask about the
specially priced military theme park tickets available to eligible active and retired U.S. military personnel and their spouses. Those promotional tickets are currently valid for visits through December 30, 2027, and are available in several options, including Park Hopper tickets with Lightning Lane Multi Pass. Eligible tickets are typically purchased through participating U.S. military bases.
If your family decides to visit, I also highly recommend considering Lightning Lane Multi Pass. It can help you spend more time enjoying attractions and less time waiting in line. One of my favorite planning tips is to set a reminder on your phone or smartwatch each time you book a Lightning Lane experience. That way, you'll remember to make your next selection as soon as you're eligible, helping you make the most of your day together.
Judy, I hope this gives you a helpful starting point as you begin planning your visit. If any other questions come up along the way, please stop by planDisney again. We'd be delighted to help!
Have a magical visit!
David
