SaluteScoutUniversal Studios Military Discount — Sources and Offer Register
Official ticket, hotel, package, third-party and search-result evidence remain separated by source and date.
Sources checked September 23, 2026; published September 23, 2026. No purchase or eligibility verification was performed.
Universal Orlando official sources and current-status boundary
Reviewed September 23, 2026. Military Ticket Deals and Specials; November 2025 2026-pass announcement; Epic Universe add-on terms. The official pages establish ticket prices, pass dates, blackout periods, activation requirements and separate hotel rates.
The partner ticket-office listing from Shades of Green gives additional ticket prices but has a 3-Park date conflict. It is labeled as a partner listing, not silently substituted for the Universal terms.
Universal Studios Hollywood scope
Universal Hollywood military office list names an Authorized Military Ticket & Travel office as a purchase route but does not list current Hollywood offer amounts or terms. The ID.me search result returned HTTP 403 twice in the Chrome body audit, so it remains unreadable. The public Hollywood ticket store shows general admission offers, which are not used as military proof.

Six official fields remain separate
The offer table separates rate/price, purchase base, eligibility, restrictions, channel and dates. A ticket price is not a percentage; hotel rates use the flexible room rate; package prices retain their own hotel-night and admission bases. Missing inputs stay unknown.
No percentage ranking is made across a ticket, room rate, third-party package and vacation bundle.
Observed Google top-ten page-body audit
Query: universal studios military discount, with hl=en&gl=us&pws=0. The standard results page displayed 9 natural results. The web view displayed 10; its first 9 matched the standard order. Ads, AI Overview, People also ask, video and related-search links were excluded. Rows 2, 4, 6 and 7 keep the original rank and show the URL of the result used to fill that row. Result 15 was a PDF download and was text-extracted and visually inspected.
Across the 10 filled rows, 2 pages show a military-offer percentage and 10 give a base or restriction. Rate counts exclude dollar savings. Row 1’s percentage applies only to Universal Orlando hotel flexible rates; row 3’s percentage is a GOVX third-party hotel-plus-ticket package offer. Neither is a Universal ticket percentage, and the bases are not comparable.
Source and comparison method
Universal Orlando brand pages and its dated press release establish Orlando terms. Shades of Green and MWR pages are ticket-office/partner evidence and remain labeled that way. GOVX, forum posts and Facebook comments are third-party pages, not brand policy. No terms from one resort, park, room type or package are transferred to another.
Unknown Hollywood terms stay Unknown. The 2024 MWR price sheet remains historical.
