Disney Military Salute extended into September 2012

[DavidHobart]

MilitaryDisneyTips.com has confirmed the extension of the salute into 2012 after correspondence with the Disney Military Sales team.

Black out dates and such are still up in the air, so they aren't taking bookings yet.

Great News as we are going in June and wanting to go again in October or November.

OMG! this is the best news I have heard all day. Had plans to go Oct. 1 but continued to wrestle with will they extend or won't they! It was fate that I logged on and found your post today! Thanks so much for the info!

I would imagine as long as we are at war that this discount will continue in some form.

As soon as Disney releases information internally I will update the locked sticky Everything About WDW Tickets in the TPA&S Forum. At this time there is nothing in the ticketing area of the internal official Disney web site.

The Parks blog has now posted on this but if you click through to the military links you get "Come Back Later for 2012 details." http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/bl...ampaign=Feed:+DisneyParks+(Disney+Parks+Blog)


MilitaryDisneyTips.com has some more info--ticket prices will be the same, you can use both the current and the new deal (that is go twice), etc here:

Steve at that site copied me on the email traffic he has had with the head of Disney Military Sales so this should be pretty good info...

I have many military friends, and will let them know. Thank you.

Way to go, Disney!

That's awesome! Last year we were shut out for F&W, this year we won't be...

I plan on buying the full 6 allowed tickets in October and only validating/using 3 of them for F&W, myself and guests. Then, I'm going back with DH and DD in mid - December ( still a DVC low point time- so hoping it isn't blacked out ) and we'll validate the other 3 then. Two trips with the tickets!

Well it's the weekend and no details yet, it could take a couple weeks. Disney has been slow every time releasing details on the Military Salutes.

Does Disneyland do the same military salute? My sister and I are planning to go to DL next summer, but we also want to het to WDW in December. Does anyone know if we could use the military deal at both parks?
