From: Liverpool based Geordie, so calm down, calm down kidda!!
Last year the deal at Seaworld was for people who were operational, not reservists. Seaworld has a specific forces entry kiosk about 50 yards down from the main entrance (away from the entry to the main car park). They ask you and your party to wear a special ID as you walk around. I saw people being random stopped and getting handshakes etc. Always try for a discount ANYWHERE, including shops, don't be shy, they absolutely love the military. Every Shamu show has a slot where all allied forces (and families) are invited to stand up and you get a huge show of appreciation. Really nice touch, if not a bit over the top. The spams get some stick on Pprune, but they could teach the brits a bit on how to treat the 'heros'. Shades of green for disney tickets, it is worth checking the discounts against uk prepay discounts available on the internet. When I was in the RAF the uk tickets were slightly cheaper.
