After purchasing military discount airline tickets to Germany, military personnel and their family should begin exploring where to stay. If the trip includes a stop at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the Edelweiss Lodge and Resort may be the perfect accommodations. This is one of several Armed Forces Recreation Centers (AFRCs) worldwide that offers upscale lodging to military personnel at discounted prices.
Finding discount airline tickets to a destination like Germany may seem like quite a discovery. Learning that there is an AFRC in that country is like a double bonus. Edelweiss was built exclusively for active duty military personnel, retirees, DoD civilians, military reservists on active duty, foreign military assigned to a U.S. military installation, and all family members of authorized guests. It features everything travelers would expect a world-class resort to possess.
Those who are unfamiliar with the Garmisch-Partenkirchen area of Germany should do some research. This has long been one of the most desirable locales in the Bavarian Alps. Whether visitors enjoy summer or winter sports, they will have fun while enjoying the breathtaking views of the Alpine region.
Between October 2 and December 1, military families are entitled to 25 percent off their Edelweiss room rate plus free breakfast. Rooms are available for Columbus Day weekend when guests will have the opportunity to participate in special events. Kids can have fun romping in the play castles and doing karaoke while the adults try their hand at a game show or take in the live entertainment.
With a military discount, airline ticket prices are so reasonable that there should be enough money left to book a room with a fabulous view of the Alps at Edelweiss. Outdoorsy types will love the wood cabins at Vacation Village, which is part of the resort. Whichever accommodations are selected, this will be a vacation the entire family will love.
