Aug 2012 - Got a current 3-Day Park to Park ticket?

[Akwafunk]

You might want to go and ask at guest services about an upgrade to a Power Pass. I put this in my trip report, but thought I'd add it here so more people might see it. This was my experience today:

(A whole lot of) SOMETHING FOR NOTHING (extra)

I have a Preferred AP (for the room discounts, of course, plus solo mum needs a break trips) but the guys don't. I purchased 3 day park to park tickets for them through UT, and couple nights back we were chatting, and I suggested (since there are prompts all over the parks) that I look into the cost of upgrading those to the Power APs (we're near enough that our trips are more likely to be quick weekenders in the off season, so it works for us).

At guest services this morning the guy working out what it would cost me went all quiet and looked very perplexed about half way through the process.

Now, I paid $149.95 for Tim's and $139.95 each for the boys' and the Power Pass costs $189.99.

"Well. This is weird," he muttered. "It says you don't need to pay anything more to get the passes..."

And so I didn't. And got the passes! Yay.

wow, how nice for you.

I've tried 3 years in a row to upgrade AAA tixs bought at great discount to a PAP but only offered trade for what I paid for them (less than $70). Could be it's that they no longer sell the same ticket in my case (7 day park to park).

I wonder - that's possible, I guess. I have no idea how it happened, but was completely surprised. Keep trying, though.

Has anyone else upgraded with and undercover tourist ticket before? I was thinking of doing this for my kids once we get there. Do they usually see what you paid for them?

the UO tickets are coded in the barcode.
that is how guest services at UO can pull up to see what you paid for them.


you pay the difference of what the ticket cost you compared to the additional cost of the upgrade.


if you paid less for the park tickets thru UT and upgrade at UO to add another day/park, you pay the difference.
