Can a relative in the military buy park tickets for my family?

[RebYork]

My wife's aunt lives at Fort Campbell and she has access to buy Disney tickets. Can she buy tickets for my family at the military discount and give them to us to use at Disney? Just trying to think of any way to save a few bucks.
Thanks

I am sure each Ticket and Tours office has their own rules - but I can tell you when we were at the SOG I was able to purchase my father a Fl resident annual pass (he was right there with me) at the military rate - I don't know if it was a fluke or not....

We have some friends that "purchase" military tickets for us all of the time at either SOG or our local base MWR office. I try to schedule things where our friends are with us when it's time to purchase my new Annual Pass.

Shades of Green is the only military place I know that has discounted Annual Passes. Our MWR office doesn't sell them.

As a matter of fact at Shades of Green, they let us use our credit card to purchase when our friends show their military ID.

Possible! My sister (B-I-L is a Navy man) got tickets for other members of our family. And she got tickets for her co-worker's family.

So, I don't see why not. But, sorry, I'm NOT SURE!

Hope you get a better answer.

You sure can! Not only can you buy regular park tickets, but you can also get tickets for MNSSHP and MVMCP. My Dad (retired AF) has gotten our tickets there before.

At our ITT when I've bought tickets for parks, etc. for other people, they've always told me that I have to be with them when they use them. It's never been a problem for us because we always were buying them for people who were going with us. Maybe it depends on the tickets...some of them actually say that they are for military and some are just regular tickets but they sell them at a better price.

I know when we lived closer to Disney and had AP's that we bought through the military, they actually said on the ticket that you had to be able to show a military ID to use the ticket - that was years ago, though, so it may have changed.
