Disney's Armed Forces Salute Park Tickets Discount Extended Until September 2012

 

Great news from Disney, they have renewed their Military Salute Discount through September 2012 for BOTH Disney World and Disneyland!

Whoopie Goldberg Announced 18 April 2011 on Disney owned ABC Television's The View that Disney's Armed Forces Salute, Military Discounted Theme Park Tickets and Resort Rooms offer had been extended until September 2012.

Because this is an extension and not a new separate offer the entire time frame of 3 October 2011 through 30 September 2012 has been combined. During this period Military Members are eligible for twelve total "Salute" tickets. They may never purchase/activate/utilize more than six per day. The key point being that you can't use more than two per day!

Disney will continue to collect military Guest information during the ticket booth activation process in order to track proper utilization."

This year’s offer like the previous two years includes both steeply discounted theme park tickets and outstanding discounts on Disney Resorts for Military Members and their families.

The details on the 2011 – 2012 Disney Military Salute are:

The offer runs through 30 September 2012.

Military members may now purchase up to 12 of the Military Salute Tickets during the offer period, as long as no more than six (6) tickets are used at any one time.

There is maximum use of six theme park tickets per family at a time. However, Disney states exceptions should be made for immediate families larger than five people. For example, if a family has six children, Disney will allow all members of the family to purchase 4-Day Disney Military Promotion Tickets.

4-Day Disney Military Promotion Tickets may be upgraded to add the Park Hopper® Option and Water Park Fun and More option. These options may be added any time prior to September 30, 2012. The no-expiration option is not available. Additional days may not be added to this ticket.

4-Day Disney Military Promotion Tickets may be upgraded to Premium Annual, Annual, Seasonal and Weekday Select Passes. See here for a cost comparison (bottom of post).
