Can a SoCal CityPass be upgraded?

[ND Disney Daddy]

Does anyone know if the 3-day park hopper included with the Southern California CityPass can be upgraded to more days? I was planning to buy 6 day park hoppers ($216 online) and Seaworld/Universal combo tickets ($120), and I'm just wondering if it would be cheaper to buy the CityPass for $276 and upgrade from 3 park hopper days to 6.

Thanks!

Yes you can upgrade them but you lose any discount when you add the other days.

You can definitely upgrade them, but people have reported different amounts that were credited toward the upgrade.

Mouse Savers says you get $206 credited toward adult tickets and $185 credited toward child tickets, so that is the amount I've been using to plan.

Hmm... if my math is right, I could save $25 with the kid's CityPass plus upgrade.

Kid's 6 day park hopper: $190
Kid's SW/Universal combo: $109
Total: $299

vs.

Kid's SoCal CityPass: $229
Upgrade from 3-day to 6-day: $45 ($230 minus $185)
Total: $274

-----------------------------------------------------

Unfortunately, the savings are only $9 on an adult CityPass:

Adult 6 day park hopper: $216
Adult SW/Universal combo: $119
Total: $335

vs.

Adult SoCal CityPass: $276
Upgrade from 3-day to 6-day: $50 ($256 minus $206)
Total: $326

--------------------------------------------------

The Seaworld/Universal combo ticket does allow unlimited entry to either for 14 consecutive days, but we're only planning to do a day at each anyway.

The CityPass would allow a visit to the SD Zoo or Safari Park, which we don't plan on doing but it wouldn't hurt to have the option.

The CityPass seems like it would be the way to go. Is upgrading to more days a hassle? Can it be done online, or can you only do it at Disneyland?

This is exactly what I was thinking of doing, getting the SoCal pass & upgrading to a 6 day Disney!
I considered purchasing everything separately because I can get discounts through my husband's union for cheaper than the rates listed on the websites; Seaworld~normally $69.99, I can get them for $49.99 each, $20 savings per ticket. Universal, not a huge savings, normally $74, I can get it for $66, it looks like the zoo is normally $40pp, w/discount $34.50 and a 6 day Disney pass is now $216, they only offer up to 5 day passes w/his discount for $202. Total= $366.49. It looks like it would still be cheaper to get the Socal City pass!! 371.99-326.00=40.49 savings pp= $161.96

That's a good sized savings, so we would probably go with this pass!! Thanks guys...
