I get lots of emails and comments on my posts with questions from my great readers about Disney’s 2011/2012 Armed Forces Salute.

I know its confusing this time around, what with Disney continually changing the offer. So I’ve consolidated the most asked questions that I receive, added some more useful information and created the 2011/2012 Disney Armed Forces Salute FAQ.

I really hope that this helps you find the answer to any question that you might have, but as always don’t hesitate to contact me if there is anything that I can help you with!

I know lots of people are making reservations at Disney for late 2011 and early 2012. 2012 still seems like a long way off to me, but you have to plan ahead for a Disney vacation. A great tool to help you decide what might be a good time to visit Walt Disney World is the Walt Disney World 2012 crowd forecasts at YourFirstVisit.net.

I’ve mentioned Dave’s great site before including his 2011 Disney World Week Picker, but when I saw the new 2012 Crowd Forecasts in the new easy to read bar graph format, it was obvious when I wanted to go to Disney and when I didn’t.

Planning a Disney vacation can be daunting, I hope that these two tools help!

I Salute Disney! I’ve been in contact with a couple people within the company and now have all the details on the 1 October 2011 through 30 September 2012 Disney Armed Forces Salute Ticket Offer.

UPDATE – The offer keeps getting changing. See here for the most up to date details

For those waiting on details about the extended Armed Forces Salute Disney Resort Room Military Discounts you’ll need to wait just a little longer. While Disney has announced that the discounts will be the same (30% on Value Resorts, 35% on Moderate Resorts and Fort Wilderness Cabins, and 40% on Deluxe Resorts Including Disneyland) the blockout dates have not yet been set. Expect these mid June as well as the release of the “fare codes” which will allow your travel agent or Disney reservations to book your room at these rates past 1 October 2011.

So here are the details on the “Extended Offer.”

It’s much like the current offer.

Up to six park tickets may be purchased including a ticket for the military member (only five if the spouse is purchasing with out the member).

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