Ticket question for buy 4 get 3 free deal....

[jemgumby]

Hey everybody, I have a question and I can't seem to find the answer. With the buy 4 get 3 free promo going on can you wait until after you check in to add the non expiration? If so will you just pay the non expiration for the 4 days or 7 days? I know if you buy the no expiration before you check in you only pay on the 4 days but does that still apply if you wait until check in? Thanks in advance!

Hello.....anybody know?

I believe that the cost is the same no matter how many days are on the tickets. Same thing for the hopping option. The cost is the same whether you add it on your second day or you last.

The non-expiration cost is based on the number of days on the original ticket. So, if your package includes 7 day tickets, you will pay the no-expiration rate for a 7 day ticket, regardless of how many days are left on it after this trip.

And yes, you can upgrade the ticket at any point after you check in.

Do it before. I wouldn't chance being charged the 7 day price. Its $60 a ticket difference. 7 day costs $110 and 4 day costs $50. Personally I wouldn't chance not being able to get it for the 4 day price. Too much of a difference. Do it prior to your trip. Maybe when you are still 3 weeks out. Spread the payment out a little more.

Totally bizarre. I had NO IDEA that you could get the no expiration based on the 4 day ticket. That seems like some kind of mistake but when you go online it does work. The no expiration is based on 4 days. And if you extend to 8 days, it is based on 5 and if you go to a 10 day non expiration, it is based on 7. The difference between 7 and 10 days on the non expiration is $95.85 so for a family of four, this 7/4 deal could actually save you an additional $383.40.

Can someone please explain how I did not see this? Has this been discussed on this board? Has any one booked the 10 day non expiration????

I was wondering that. Thanks for looking it up. Considering that difference of a base 4 day and 10 day is only about $19. it would be so worth it to upgrade and tickets for another trip it would cost about $135 more for those 3 days. We went for 5 days back in Sept. Got the FL 3 day ticket and went to MNSSHP. Because of the party we only used 2 days of the 3 day ticket. I have 6 months to upgrade my ticket. We are going next weekend and upgrading it to a 4 day for $35. I could upgrade to a SP for $90 but things are shaky at work and who knows what this economy will do. So just 1 added day is good for me. But if this deal was an option to me I'd buy that 10 day ticket. Even if you add everything to it it comes to just over $475. But that would mean 10 park days and 10 water parks and more days, easily 3 different trips. About $160 a trip.

Yep, I think I will add the non expiration before check in and you really do only pay it for the 4 day ticket and not the 7 day ticket. Pretty cool!!!

I know mousesavers mentions being able to get the 7 day non-expiration for the price of the 4--I didn't know you could get a 10 day for the price of a 7!

We're planning on upgrading tickets to an annual pass--I know if you use them first, you can get face value for them, so this means we'd be able to save nearly $100 per pass? Or was this just a glitch that has been fixed? It just seems too good to be true. . . .
