So I have 2 4-day parkhopper passes leftover from a trip that got canceled that can be used on a 4 day trip coming up. We will be a party of 3 this time however, so I need to secure one more set of 4-day parkhopper passes.
We do have one member in our party that is eligible for the Military Salute discount. However the only way to purchase these tickets (after talking to WDW on the phone) is either through the army base or going to Shades of Green. Well, for one thing I don't even know if our local army base even sells them and my search results have yielded nothing (as far where in the army base I'm supposed to even buy them). 2nd, it would take some time to get the actual tickets from the army base according to research. The trip is in September. We plan to book a Disney hotel tomorrow but we've already miss our 60 day FP window and by the time we get said tickets, it will be knees deep in the 30 day...and again that's dependent on whether or not the base will have these for sale.
Our only other option of course is getting them at Shades of Green upon our arrival. But we won't even have a car to get to the hotel and then there's of course the fact that we'll miss advance booking on FPs altogether.
I don't think it's even worth it to try for the military discount and thinking we should just order the needed set of tickets online when we book the hotel tomorrow. What do you think?
Also, would we have to book room and tickets separately then since we are a party of three but only need one more set of tickets? What is the best way to go about that?
