Too bad not for disabled veterans or retired service members. My BIL is 100% service related disability his humvee hit an IED, my husband 80% from the gulf war and war on terror, and my cousin 90% from the war on terror.
The website says disabled and retired military are eligible as well as their family members. You would just have to visit a military base or you could visit the Navy exchange in Orlando, which isn’t even on a military base and purchase the tickets from their tickets and travel MWR. Website even says you can call Disney and purchase through them as well. If you have a valid military ID, va card, or DD Form 214 you should be able to purchase the ticket. I don’t understand why you think that you wouldn’t be eligible for the ticket?
If you’re a Florida resident, I’m not sure that this is a good deal. Currently if I renew my pixie dust pass, it comes up to $498 to pay in full. So it seems kind of silly to go over to the navy exchange and purchase this pass when I have to pay for it outright in full. Whereas with my pixie dust pass I can just make payments. Also, there are blackout dates on this special ticket. Are there less blackout dates on it than with the pixie dust pass? This would be the only reason why I would purchase it at this point. It seems like from what I’m reading online that it is the pixie dust pass, but I’m not sure. So I have to call Disney and find out about the blackout dates. If they’re less than the pixie dust pass, I’ll update.
Think I will just continue to go to Busch Gardens. They at least give military & veterans one free pass every year. Just read something about them offering discounts on dining too. FLY NAVY!!!
Has Disney done this special every year, or just next year? Why aren’t senior (grandparents and people have certain medical or taking medication that can’t ride rides) get discount too?

Universal has been offering this type of ticket for cheaper including the water park for years. It’s about time Disney has caught up.

MWR doesn’t charge tax, though, right?That’s a big savings on $500 tix.
