Combining new tickets with old ones in MDE?

We have several tickets with days still on them from years ago and were hoping to combine them with new tickets so we don't have to spend as much this year. (We checked them on a previous trip.) The complicating issue is that one is a child ticket and both kids are now "Disney adults". Can this be done at home or do we need to do that at Disney? We want to be able to do all our fast passes at 60 days. Or should we just continue to save them for n future trip? Thanks!
 
You can't combine them, but you can have more than one ticket linked to your MDE account.

If any of the (Magic Your Way) tickets have never been used, they can be upgraded, but only in-person at WDW.

If any of the adult tickets are partially-used (older non-expiring tickets,) they cannot be upgraded or altered, but can be used, as-is.

Any "child's" ticket that has been partially-used (older non-expiring tickets,) can be exchanged,
free-of-charge, to an "adult" ticket with the same remaining assets, by taking the ticket and the (former) child to any ticket booth or Guest Relations.

Any valid ticket can be listed in your MDE account and advance FP+ can be made
with them. Once you get to WDW, you can do any upgrading of individual tickets
and still keep the advance FP+ you made, even if you are no longer planning to
actually use each and every ticket (during this trip) that you have listed in your MDE account.

How many days do you need to purchase? Since each day past 4 is only $10, it would be worthwhile to save the old tickets if you have to purchase 3 or more days.

Thanks for all of the information Robo! Can we exchange the child ticket this trip if we don't end up using it and save it for a future trip for my son? Or do we need to wait until we actually plan to use it to upgrade it to an adult ticket?

Thank you! We need to purchase 8 days so maybe holding onto the tickets for now might be a better option.

Definitely save those tickets! You'd I my save $10/day. Those old tickets are worth so much more.
