New Disney Military Salute Announced for 2011
Disney announces Armed Forces Salute extended until September 2012
For the latest on this discount see this post
The Disney Company has just announced a new Military Discount offer for the remainder of 2010 continuing through 1 October 2011! This surprise announcement comes after repeated assertions by company officials that no Military Salute Discount would be offered for the coming year.
This year’s offer like the previous two includes both outstanding discounts on Disney Resorts and steeply discounted theme park tickets for Military Members their families.
As in the past details of this offer slowly surfaced, only after the offer had already started. This year’s room only offer began on 3 October 2010, the ticket offer began on 24 October 2010, a 23 day gap from the offer that ended 30 September.

The Disney Cruise Line
The Disney Cruise Line continues to offer Military discounts. Military Discounted Cruise Rates are usually announced 30-60 days out. Officials with the Cruise Line recommended to me that if you know your dates go ahead and make your reservations at the best rate you can find as far out as possible. Then when a military rate is announced for that particular sailing they will apply that rate to your reservations. They usually set aside fifty staterooms of all categories for the military rates (except for suites and the lowest categories).
