Will The Walt Disney Company Renew the Disney Armed Forces Military Salute Discount For 2020?
Will Disney continue to extend their Military Discounted Ticket and Resort Room Offer?
Military Disney Tips has been the first to publish the previous announcements of the Armed Forces Salute continuations, since September 2012. We have contacts in the Disney Company both official and unofficial as well as other friends in the Disney related industry. These contacts allow us to keep ouu fingertip on the pulse of the company in regards to military discounts.
Late September 2018 the 2019 Disney Armed Forces Salute was announced.
We usually do AFS 5 day park hopper, 1 party day & 1 rest day. The 5 day tickets work well for us.I think I want to apply the discount to my stay this winter. My only concern is, I’ll be there 12/7-12/14 and I currently have tickets and park hoppers for each day, 7day tickets. If the military discount is only 5 days, is it possible to get 7? How do people usually do the tickets?
The PP has a great plan!I think I want to apply the discount to my stay this winter.

The PP has a great plan!
We purchased the 5 day park hopper plus military tickets - 5 park days PLUS 5 waterpark visits (or mini golf). We thought that was an excellent deal. And the military tickets are valid all year (until December 19th I think), they do NOT expire 10 or 14 days after first use. We used one park day and 4 water park visits at the beginning of the summer and will use the remaining 4 park visits and waterpark (or mini golf depending on weather) when we go back this fall. It was a great deal for 10 days of Disney. Like the PP we built some resort/down days into our schedule to relax. The limit is 6 per military member/year. Our family of 3 could buy 2 sets if we wanted more days.
It sounds like you've already got your tickets for this year, but you can get on that room discount. The room discount is not limkited to just 5 days. Call the WDW reservation number. You can apply the discount to your stay. Have them look and see what's available first, if your current resort is available for the military discount, they cancel your original reservation (and tell them to quickly put a hold on that room) and then re-book you with the military discount. We've done it a few times no problem.
Thank you for your family's service to country. Enjoy your trip!
Maybe the cast member I spoke with was confused. I called earlier in the week and the room discount was great and I really would like to use it, but they told me it did not include my tickets which I would have to buy separately. She said it was only the room and my dining plan. Should I call back? Thank you SO much for all of your help!!!!!
She's right about the tickets. I think the rule is up to 3 rooms at once. You can use the discount multiple times a year. You have to buy AFS tickets from your local MWR office or Shades of Green will mail you tickets. You can also just buy regular tickets from any other discount retailer and use them.Maybe the cast member I spoke with was confused.

If your husband has a military issued ID card he should be able to book the military discount. My DH is retired and we have used the military discount many times.My husband is a 100% disabled vet. He is able to use Shades of Green and purchase military tickets on base. Can he also book the military discount at Disney or is it just for active duty families?
My husband is also 100% disabled and we buy the military salute tickets all the time. We have also used the room discounts if my cast discount is not available.My husband is a 100% disabled vet. He is able to use Shades of Green and purchase military tickets on base. Can he also book the military discount at Disney or is it just for active duty families?
