I have done some research into the options of upgrading the base MYW tickets and think I have gotten all my questions answered with the exception of one.
I know you can upgrade a ticket and add the water park, park hopper or no expiration option. Can you upgrade from a 3 day ticket to a 10 day ticket? In other words, add more days vs features.
Well there is another question that just popped into my head as I was writing. So let me start with an explanation. Years ago (10+) at Disneyland, visiting with my Brother and his wife, we purchased some 3 or 5 day park tickets. They only had bought a one day ticket. During our visit at Disney a cast member asked us if we wanted to upgrade to an annual pass. Now I cant remember what type of annual pass it was but we passed up it since we were not planning on visiting LA with in the next year. Even though the upgrade to an annual pass for us would have only cost us a couple of dollars per upgraded ticket. My brother originally said no because the upgrade was to expensive.
I do not know how it came up, either the cast member brought it up or I did, but the option of a ticket swap came up. My brother would use our tickets to get the virtually free upgrade to an annual pass. Since it was our last day visiting the park we did not have any more unused days on the ticket. We openly discussed our plan with the cast member and she said it could be done, so we did it. Obviously this can no longer be done with the non-transferable legal mumble jumble and the biometric fingerprint thingy.
So here are my questions:
Could this have ever been done?
Was the non-transferable thing in effect 10+ years ago and the cast member did not know any better?
Has anyone ever done something similar at either park?
Is that why the non-transferable legal mumble jumble and the biometric fingerprint thingy are now in place?
