Ticket Blackout Dates
Unlike previous years, there will be blackout dates in 2023 for Disney World military ticket usage. As it stands now, there are only two periods for blackout dates.
- April 1, 2023 – April 15, 2023
- November 19, 2023 – November 25, 2023
At this time there is no expectation for there to be more added. However, Disney does reserve the right to make changes to the Military Salute Ticket at any time.
Hotels
Discounted military rates are available at select Walt Disney World Resorts during most nights in 2023. Rooms must be booked by December 15th, 2023. The required length of stay is 1-14 nights, which should work for the vast majority of guests.
There are limited rooms and hotels that this discount applies to. I recommend reaching out to Disney to see what is available, to ensure the room will match your needs before planning and booking your trip.
