Hi Steve,
I contacted Disney asking if 100% disabled veteran also qualifies for the military discount for Disney cruises and their answer was, “Active duty or retired military personnel and 100% Permanently Disabled Veterans do not have to travel as long as the spouse has a valid military ID; divorced spouses do not qualify. Retired Military personnel will have a military ID that states ‘retiree’. The 100% Permanently Disabled Veterans will have a military ID that has the code of DAVPRM printed on the front of the ID.”
Since I have the New Generation USID which does not have DAVPRM printed on it, I asked if that was acceptable. This was the response, “We apologize for any concern and have confirmed that as long as the Military ID states 100% Disabled Veteran (DD form 1173) it is acceptable. The ID is no longer required to be imprinted with DAVPRM.”
It confuses me because DD 1173 is not the New Generation ID. I suspect that as long as the military ID says 100% DAV then that should suffice. Do you have any new updates regarding military discounts on 100% disabled veterans? It would be a lot easier if Disney would mention it on their website instead of just saying it’s for active duty and retirees.
Hi Katherine,
I suspect that you are correct.
No I have not heard back from Disney. I queried both WDW N+Media Relations and WDW Public Relations and did not receive an acknowledgement or reply from either.
I did receive a call from another guest communication department of the company that “shares” the public relations email address. She stated that she’d seen my email and was just calling to make sure someone had responded. When I told her, “No, could she get them to?” She replied that she was unable to do that. We talked a long time where I explained the situation in depth and she answered with several standard misconceptions. I asked if she could find the answer for me and she said that she couldn’t as she had no connection to the departments involved.
