Adding days to an old unused 4 day park hopper ticket

[Jhondy]

I have an unused 4 day park hopper ticket that was purchased in 2015ish or so. It was before the date specific tickets came into play. My husband and I are going to disney next October for 8 days. Can I still add days to that older ticket like you used to be able to? And is it still the case that it is better to use one day first and then upgrade the ticket cause then you only pay the difference between a 4 and 8 day ticket at the current pricing? I’m not overly concerned about fast passes cause we will have our 1 year old daughter with us so we aren’t trying to get any of the big headliners cause she obviously won’t be tall enough to ride them.

You never had to use them first. It was a hard to get rid of rumor, like how the one is that parks close on Christmas and New Year’s Eve. Some things get a life of their own

if it’s a regular old ticket yep you can update it. Add them anytime it’s convenient but before the last day

1. Can I still add days to that older ticket like you used to be able to?
2. And is it still the case that it is better to use one day first and then upgrade the ticket cause

1. Not exactly "add days" to your current tickets. That is no longer allowed.
HOWEVER... You CAN upgrade your older, unused ticket...
into a NEW, CURRENT ticket with the correct number of assets that you need.
2. You can use part of the older ticket before upgrading, or not.
It won't affect the upgrade one way or the other.
3. That is now more complex than it used to be.
Just go to Post #6 in the TICKETS Sticky thread always near the top of this forum
to see the rules to determine the cost of upgrading older tickets.
Read very carefully to determine which ticket price lists to use in your cost computations.
