Active Duty Military Tickets + Dependents?

[Arielfan98]

I have never been to SeaWorld. I am active duty. I see can get a free ticket for myself and up to 3 dependents. Does anyone know what they consider to be dependents? I want to bring my 2 parents and my boyfriend who are obviously not dependents in the same sense the government/military classifies them. Do they qualify for these free guest tickets?
Thanks for any info.

It doesn’t sound like it. Have you gone through their website to check it?

I have begun the research process. It just asks for how many additional tickets after I verify my military status on id.me.

... a direct dependent like a child or a spouse would have an ID . . . in some cases a parent can be a direct dep' and they TOO would qualify for an ID showing they are entitled to access the base commissary, get medical care etc ...
