Special $499 Year Long Pass
The new Disney Celebrates America Salutes ticket is a special, one-year ticket that grants access to all four Walt Disney World theme parks for U.S. service members and their families. It functions similarly to an annual pass by allowing multiple visits throughout the year, but it is not a traditional annual pass and does not include benefits like free parking or merchandise discounts. This specific ticket is valid from January 1, 2026, through December 18, 2026.

I just read that, was thinking of you and Richard.
Still seems pretty pricey. It should include free parking and merch discounts for veterans.
Yes, I agree this should come with the same discounts other annual passes come with , but when you compare it to the price of annual passes this is a pretty good discount.
