This post is part of our Frequently Asked Question Series in the Disney Armed Forces Salute Ticket FAQ section.
The Disney’s Armed Forces Salute offers huge savings on theme park tickets and resort rooms to those Service Members who are eligible to participate.
Is There a Limit On How Many Times I Can Purchase Disney Armed Forces Salute Tickets?
There absolutely is not!
There is however a limit on how many you can buy!
You may make as many separate purchases of Disney Armed Forces Salute Tickets as you would like, up to the current offer’s limit.
Please see Special information about 2020 and 2021 Salute Ticket Use!
Unfortunately this is a question that comes up often, which seems to be coming from Base Ticket Offices which are incorrectly saying that you are only allowed to make one purchase.
This is due to lack on knowledge. There was a very brief period (about 2 weeks) when this was true. The Disney Armed Forces Salute ticket offer which started on 17 October 2012 briefly had the one single purchase ticket rule.
But this rule ended within about 2 weeks of the offer starting, when I pointed out to Disney that they were turning away return guests and their cash.  By mid-October 2012 they did away with the rule. Unfortunately many Base Ticket Offices stuck with this rule the entire rest of the fiscal year offer period. And it seems some might still be doing it. Note as of 2018 I’m hearing of this less and less.
Have you been told you could only make one Disney Armed Forces Salute Ticket purchase? At what base? Tell us in the comments below.

Thank you for all you do to keep us all up to date!! The Lackland AFB ticket office has always been great.
My pleasure April!
Is there an email address where I can send you a question? My question involves ticket limits, but it also involves some personal family info that i would rather not disclose online. Thanks so much for your site! It has been a great help to me!
Absolutely Sarah,

Travis AFB ITT Discount flyer still says you can only purchase 1 time.
Hi Dorothy,
They are totally wrong! As this post notes this was only a policy for a short time in 2012 and some ITTs have just never corrected their policies
I know this is an old post but are there any restrictions on ticket purchasing now in 2018? we already bought 6 and went in may, but I was looking to go again this year.
Still valid, no changes Jenny.
6 is the limit per eligible member.
See http://www.militarydisneytips.com/blog/disney-military-discounts/regular-disney-military-discount-for-walt-disney-world-and-disneyland-tickets/
Are you saying that Jenny cannot go again this year because she used up her limit of 6 for this year? Or is the rule max of 6 tickets per visit?
Hi Julie,
Just saw and answered your question on Facebook.
She can certainly go again, but cannot use the highly discounted Disney Armed Forces Salute tickets. The limit is 6 per member during the 2018 offer period. As I mentioned the alternative (to full price tickets) is the Regular Military Discounted Magic Your Way Tickets, which offer a slight discount.
Note the Disney Armed Forces Salute room discounts are not limited and can be used unlimited times (if available for your dates).

Question so how many times a year can we buy tickets ?
6 if you want to but 1 at a time. And it’s during the offer period in question not per year.
Nellis Air Force base says we can only use military salute once per year
Hi there Kim,
They are totally incorrect.
You can use the tickets up to the 6-ticket limit (as many trips as that takes) and the room offer as many times as you want. I’ve been doing this since 2009 (as have many others).
Tell them to call Disney Military Sales and get their facts in order…
Sadly those working in Base Ticket offices receive little to no training. Often the new incoming military spouse is handed a binder and is told to get to work, as the last spouse running the office has already PCSed.
