\"\"This post is part of our\u00a0Frequently Asked Question Series<\/a>\u00a0in the\u00a0Disney Armed Forces Salute Ticket FAQ<\/a>\u00a0section.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Disney\u2019s Armed Forces Salute<\/a>\u00a0offers huge savings on theme park tickets and resort rooms to those Service Members who are\u00a0eligible<\/a>\u00a0to participate.<\/p>\n\n\n

I Am An Individual Ready Reservist (IRR), Am I Eligible For The Disney Armed Forces Salute?<\/strong>

Unfortunately the answer is no.<\/strong>The IRR, which is a non-pay, non-drill status, is not eligible for the Disney Armed Forces Salute room or ticket offers.Disney uses this incorrect confusing phrasing (because they are not military and do not really understand terminology) on their site \u201d \u201cEligible Service Members\u201d are\u00a0active\u00a0or retired members of the U.S. Military, including the National Guard, Reservists, the U.S. Coast Guard\u2026\u201d What they really mean instead of \u201cactive\u201d is \u201ccurrent, participating\u201d and for reservists that means drilling, paid members who have a CAC not a green DD Form 2.If you live near a base, you can access the base with your ID. So you can buy the Regular Military Discounted Disney Tickets<\/a>, which will save you some,\u00a0if they will sell to you. Or you could contact a ticket office that ships<\/a>.\u00a0These tickets do not require activation.But do not buy the special Salute tickets! While someone at a base may sell you Disney Armed Forces Salute tickets, you are right to worry. It might be that you could slip through and activate them, again with unknowledgeable Disney personnel, but you probably wouldn\u2019t and would then have to try to get them to let you use the Salute tickets that you purchased towards full price ones.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n

So you can buy the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/disney-military-discounts\/regular-disney-military-discount-for-walt-disney-world-and-disneyland-tickets\/\">Regular Military Discounted Disney Tickets<\/a>, which will save you some,\u00a0if they will sell to you. Or you could contact a ticket office that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/disney-military-discounts\/buy-military-discounted-disney-tickets-by-phone\/\">ships<\/a>.\u00a0These tickets do not require activation.<br\/><br\/>But do not buy the special Salute tickets! While someone at a base may sell you Disney Armed Forces Salute tickets, you are right to worry. It might be that you could slip through and activate them, again with unknowledgeable Disney personnel, but you probably wouldn\u2019t and would then have to try to get them to let you use the Salute tickets that you purchased towards full price ones.","inLanguage":"en-US"},"inLanguage":"en-US"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12803","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12803"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12803\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":33065,"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12803\/revisions\/33065"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10467"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12803"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12803"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12803"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
