A free membership travel club for all active, retired, and veteran military members and U.S. Department of Defense-affiliated personnel, as well as their families, Armed Forces Vacation Club provides a one-stop shop for all your travel needs. With savings of up to 60% off hotel stays and resort accommodations starting at just $57 per night, club membership can translate to real and significant savings for military personnel.

“Military Appreciation Month is a time to honor and give back to those who have sacrificed so much for our country, and for AFVC, that starts with affordable and accessible vacations,” said Amy Lipka, SVP Travel Solutions, Armed Forces Vacation Club. “On top of our regular discounts, we’ve announced some special members-only offers during the month of May, which we hope will empower service members to enjoy time with their loved ones on a much-deserved vacation.”

In honor of Military Appreciation Month, AFVC is rolling out several special offers just in time for a busy summer travel season:

  • From May 1-20, AFVC members have access to Resort Vacation Certificates for just $319* (regularly priced at $429). Each certificate can be redeemed for a seven-night stay at among 4,200+ resorts worldwide within 12 months from the date of purchase and can be used by the member or gifted to friends and family. Accommodations include spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom options with homestyle amenities like separate bathrooms and full-sized kitchens in most suites. Upgrades may be available during certificate redemption to access peak travel dates and expanded condo sizes, at an additional fee. Ten dollars of every certificate purchased during this period will be donated to the In Honor of Our Troops (IHOOT) Foundation, which helps veterans heal and reconnect with their loved ones through meaningful vacations.
  • From May 21-31, AFVC members can book seven-night vacations at ‘R&R’ resorts for just $344* ($75 off the regular fixed price of $419). The ‘R&R’ portfolio taps into excess resort inventory to pass on premium savings to members. With Las Vegas, Nevada, and Kissimmee, Florida, ranking as the two most popular destinations between May and September of this year based on member bookings, travelers can plan their ultimate escape to popular destinations like these—without breaking the bank.

  • Throughout the month of May, new members will also be eligible for a free 90-day trial* of Armed Forces Vacation Club Premium* at sign up. While standard AFVC membership is completely free, members can choose to upgrade to premium membership ($119 annually or $249 for three years) for added perks, including cruise deals.
