Welcome back to planDisney, Roger!
Thank you for another question! Since your son is the "sponsor" in this circumstance, you can visit Walt Disney World Resort with the
Disney Military Salute tickets he has purchased. He will be the one who needs to activate the tickets (at either the
Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs or at one of the Guest Relations booths at the theme parks) for you all to enter the parks. Don't forget to make Theme Park Reservations before you go!
Lightning Lane Pass debuts tomorrow, which will replace Disney Genie+. If you are interested in shorter wait times, I suggest looking into it! One big perk about Lightning Lane is that you will have the ability to make all of your reservations in advance beginning up to seven days before your visit (if staying at a Disney Resort hotel, Shades of Green, or Walt Disney World Swan/Dolphin hotels) or three days before your visit. You will have the option of purchasing a Multi Pass, which you can use while park hopping, and/or a Single Pass, which lets you purchase reservations for up to two top-tier attractions per day. Another big perk is that once you redeem your first pass, you can pull up your My Disney Experience mobile app and begin selecting your next reservation.
Roger, I hope you and your family have a wonderful visit in August! Thanks for stopping by planDisney again, and
send me additional questions if you need more information to plan your visit. You've got a friend in me!
Magic Awaits!
