Alright, I quit.

The BIRTHDAY 2FER?!?!?! Come ON!!! The ticket booth lines are 2+ hours long already! Now we have the incredibly difficult-for-guests-to-understand 2Fer and we have COMBINED it with the FOYB offer. That's right, IF you're a SoCal resident and IF it's your birthday, and IF you don't already have paid admission, and IF you registered online in advance, and IF you brought along your government issued ID or birth certificate, we can issue you a BIRTHDAY 2Fer, and your free one-day one-park ticket becomes a free 2Fer.

And if you already bought a 2Fer or a 2 day resident hopper, but it's your birthday and you did all the registering and bringing of IDs? Well then you qualify for the "additional birthday offerings" like the APs get!

Oh yeah, and there's a new military "salute" (read: free 3day hopper) too.

Poor, poor Main Entrance. I am so sorry.

I can see the SGTs now...

What do you mean you can't refund my 2Fer!? I want a free one, even though I already bought one!? You're trying to rip me off, I'm calling the police!!

So..............I can get into Disneyland AND California Adventure for free. Sweet!

I'm a Northern Californian (or southern Bajan Californian)!! What do you mean I can't take part in this promotion!!

.....and so many more...

If Vacation Planners demand (and somehow pull off a miracle and get) a, say, yearly 25% pay increase at the next Master Services negotiations, I would not hold it against them in the slightest, lol.

Most bases have a Welfare and Recreation office, sometimes called Special Services, and so forth. They have the latest info from the various parks and attractions. (The base dosn't have to be the same service that your family member is serving in)

http://www.mwr.navy.mil/

http://www.armymwr.com/

there are a couple of web sites to get started!!

This is from the website of the National Guard.

U.S. National Guard: Disney Parks offers free five-day admission to military personnel in 2009

The centrepiece of this offer at WDW will be a complimentary 5-day Magic Your Way ticket with the ParkHopper and Water Park Fun & More options.

At the DLR, the mainstay will be a complimentary 3-day ParkHopper Ticket.

Both will offer companion tickets at deep discount, as well as discounts on rooms at the resort hotels.

This is the website published by WDW:

As someone who used to sell tickets on the resort side (WDW front desk/guest services aka resort concierge), I have nothing but admiration and buckets of sympathy for any CMs who have to sell tkts or deal with ticket issues on a daily basis. I know that the FOYB options were going to complicate things, but my heart goes out to our West Coast Cast dealing with another year of 2fers and now birthday 2fers...

And does anyone else find that Donald 2fer billboard a little creepy? :eek:
