Disney Premium Ticket - Upgrade?!

[raph_b]

I just saw this on americanattractions.co.uk

"Upgrade un-used days. Any un-used days can be upgraded to be valid for life (no expiration date) at Disney Guest Services in Orlando. Cost is $55 on the 7-Day Premium Ticket and $35 on the 5-Day Premium Ticket. "

I hadn't heard of this before. Has anyone ever done it?

If its true it sounds like a really good deal....

Yes we did it in 2005, we still have the days on our tickets as we been buying AP's

Even the plus options never expire.

raph to be honest I think that they have their money signs wrong! You have always been able to upgrade to no-expiry but it is on the initial days bought & not what is left at the end,basically to stop everyone just buying a base ticket & only upgrading a couple of days at the end. www.attractionticketsdirect.co.uk quote the same policy but state $70-$100 depending on days plus tax & all upgrades are done at the ticket centres at WDW warning that prices may vary locally.Even looking at some of the US sites the difference on the MYW ticket to no-expiry is $100.Now whether you could get americanattractions to give you a guarantee in writing that that would be the cost & one that WDW would agree to uphold.....?

I think AA may be getting crossed wires here. Unless Disney have changed proceedures in the last few days, you cannot upgrade UK bought ticket, ie 5,7,14,or 21 premium/umlimited etc tickets to be no expo tickets.

Its only the USA magic your way tickets you can upgrade and they are way more expensive, even with the exhange rate that our passes.

I also thought the same in that the UK tickets are a non upgradeable ticket and a special offer for the UK market only.

As far as I know 5/7 day Premium tickets can but 14/21 day Ultimates can't.
Same on http://www.orlando-ticket-deals.co.uk/tickets/5-7-day-magic-your-way-premium-disney.html upgrade available when you get to Disney.

Just bought a 7 day premium thru' American Attractions with an intention to upgrade unused days at the end (we are going for 5 days). They state:

Upgrade un-used days. Any un-used days can be upgraded to be valid for life (no expiration date) at Disney Guest Services in Orlando. Cost is $55 on the 7-Day Premium Ticket and $35 on the 5-Day Premium Ticket.

I'll see how I get on with this and report back when I return in April!

Neil I hope you manage to get the deal but I will be pleasantly surprised,as I said on my previous post the no-expiry is on days bought not days left,I also think that it's a strange coincedence that AA's $35-$55 if in £'s is approx $70-$100.I also think that our US posters would be in uproar as our Premium ticket is slightly cheaper that the equivalent MYW & it would cost them $100 to upgrade to no-expiry so further losing out!

We bought the premium ticket last year and upgraded on the last day of our holiday! We ve still got 3 park days and 4 plus days left! I think it was $55 each.

 

[crabbie1]

You can definatley up grade the premium passes as we did last year as we had 2 days left.I think we paid around $50 for this privalidge.I totally forgot we had done this until DH reminded me.As we have 11days there this year plus the cruise I don't think I will be taking them and wil just buy new 7 day premium passes.

you will only be able to upgrade tickets which are sold over the counter buy disney so flex tickets out of the question,these are uk only tickets
agree cost to upgrade is about $95.00.Then again would love for them to return to all tickets no-expiry as they used to be,the money men must have got to them
