Disney – Salute to the Troops

Walt Disney World will always hold a special place in the heart for the military. WDW is home to one of the four recreational military bases, Shades of Green.

1. Hopper Tickets
Through Disney’s Armed Forces Salute program, military personnel can get discounted tickets to Disney theme parks. These deals are good for all military members, including active duty, National Guard, Reserve, retired military and spouses. Please have your military ID card.

For the 2018 Armed Forces Salute at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, choose between a Disney 4-Day Military Promotional Ticket or a Disney 5-Day Military Promotional Ticket. Purchase through December 15, 2018 and receive admission for 5 days for $246 plus tax when you visit during the period of January 1, 2018 through December 19, 2018. Or purchase now through December 16, 2018 and receive admission for 4 days for $226 plus tax, during the same period. Add the Park Hopper Plus Option for $40 more plus tax.

For the 2018 Armed Forces Salute at Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, choose between 3-Day and 4-Day Park Hopper Tickets. Purchase from November 1, 2017 through December 16, 2018, and receive admission for 3 days for just $168 or 4 days for $188 from January 1 through March 22 and April 9 through December 19, 2018.

You can purchase these tickets at your military installations’ ticket office or Shades of Green.

Keep in mind: These tickets can’t be combined with other discounts or promotions, they aren’t valid on certain blockout dates, and they’re limited to six tickets.

2. Disney Hotels
The Disney Armed Forces Salute program also applies to Disney Resort hotels, where military members can get select rooms at 30-40% off the normal rates. This includes a variety of deluxe resorts, moderate resorts, and value resorts at Walt Disney World in Florida. Disneyland Resort hotels in California include Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel, Disneyland Hotel, and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel and Spa.

Keep in mind: The number of rooms at the reduced rate is limited, and minimum stay requirements may apply. Just like ticket sales, the discounts on resort rooms are also subject to blockout dates. Contact CaribbeanDays for information and bookings

3. Extra Magic Hours
Another perk of being a Disney Resort hotel guest is Extra Magic Hours. This allows you early admission to select attractions, stores, entertainment and restaurants during each day of your hotel stay. That’s one extra hour of fun before the park opens to the general public, which is a great way to enjoy a slower pace and shorter lines.

Keep in mind: Each park has an Extra Magic Hour schedule. That means this perk isn’t applicable every day of the week or at every park.

4. Shades of Green
Another option for lodging is Shades of Green. Shades of Green is an Armed Forces Recreation Center (AFRC) in Orlando, Florida. It is a military-owned resort located within Walt Disney World that offers affordable military room rates and discounted tickets for all Disney World venues. It also offers complimentary bus transportation to the Disney World Theme parks and to the Transportation and Ticket Center, as well as the Extra Magic Hours benefit.

5. Disney Cruises
The Disney Cruise Line offers military discounted cruise rates on select sailings. Discounts are typically announced 30-60 days out. Contact CaribbeanDays for information and bookings
