Military Discounts for Universal Studios Tours




Universal Studios Tours is proud of the men and

women who serve the United States of America,

and to reward them for the great service that they

provide, specially priced tickets are offered. These

tickets are available for all active duty military

personnel, retirees, DOD personnel, members of the

National Guard, Reserves, all other military

personnel, and all dependants.



If you are unsure whether you qualify for these

special military prices, you should contact your

Commander, Universal Studios, or Commander,

Navy Region, Southwest at 619-767-6000.



In order to benefit from the special military prices,

your tickets must be purchased in advance. These

specially priced tickets are not available at the gate,

online, or over the telephone. Instead, these tickets

can only be purchased from MWR ITT/ITR offices

located throughout the United States. You must

present a military or US Government Identification

card when purchasing these specially priced tickets.



If for any reason your local base does not have

tickets available for purchase, they will order them

for you. This typically takes about five days, so take

this into consideration when planning your trip – get

your tickets as early as possible. Don’t wait too late,

or your tickets will not arrive in time for your

scheduled leave, and you will have to pay the full

price for admission into the park. No exceptions will

be made.



The only way you can order your tickets by

telephone, and still receive the special military

prices is by contacting the Commander, Navy

Region, Southwest at 619-767-6000. Your tickets

will be mailed to you, and should arrive within

seven business days. Overnight service may be

available, but there will be an additional fee. Do not

call the regular phone number for Universal Studio

tickets or you will be charged the regular price.

You will be charged the regular full price if you

order your tickets online, purchase them through a

Ticket Masters Outlet, or order them through a

travel agent as well.



The special military rates do not apply to tickets

that are sold through the Universal Studios

Hollywood Box Office. Again, for more information

on these specially prices military tickets for

Universal Studios Tours, contact your local base

MWR ticket office or Commander, Navy Region,

Southwest at 619-767-6000.



Universal Studios welcomes military personnel. If

you have served your country, make sure that you

take advantage of these very special military prices

– they were hard earned, and are well deserved!
