Not entirely accurate. As long as you use the ticket once, you'll get credit for the gate price when you do the upgrade. That might be more than what you paid. Unless you bought the tickets (and just the tickets) directly from Disney; then you get credit for the price you paid.yes. cost difference depends on how much you paid for that particular ticket and current price of DVC AP.

exactly what i wrote.
No. In all but the most obscure circumstance, the cost difference does not depend on how much you paid. It depends on the gate value of the ticket you purchased.exactly what i wrote.
Can you upgrade regualr park tickets to an DVC AP while on site ? What is the difference in cost?
Yes.What about using a ticket from UCT towards an AP renewal???
I posted on the Budget Board the scenario of buying a 4-day PH/WFPM ticket from UCT (saving around $30 off gate price) and then using it once and applying it towards an AP renewal. Is that possible?
correctJust so I'm understanding, if one buys a 4-day ticket from UTC et al with the intention of upgrading to a DVC AP when onsite, that person could only make FastPass reservations for those 4 days that are linked to the tickets, correct? So it may not be a great option for a longer stay?

How does AP affect your ability to book FP?
It varies depending on if you are staying onsite or off.
You can book 30 days in advance if off and are limited to 7 days worth of FP's. However, if you are staying onsite then you book the number of days you are staying and can book at 60 days.
It would be onsite DVC and booked at 11 or 7 months out. So no different than just buying tickets 11 or 7 months out?
Correct. You will be able to book the FP's at 60 days out.
Can the first use be at a water park or does it need to be one of the four major parks?Not entirely accurate.
