Pardon my naivety on an AP...So my question is what is the advantage of buying the tickets first through Undercover Tourist? Lets say for example a 2 day 2 park to park with 1 extra day free is $270.95 through UT. What is the advantage to purchasing the UT ticket first rather than just buying the AP ticket in the beginning of your first time entering? IF for example you are interested in the Preferred Pass which comes with more benefits and perks, wouldn't you want to have the benefits of the Preferred Pass right away, like free parking(other than the first use) and 10% off dining at Citiwalk and perhaps some merchandise discounts and EP after 4PM for a Preferred Pass AND early park admission? Isn't the "upgrade" fee the difference between the price that you paid at UT in this case $270.95 and the after tax amount for a 2 park Preferred AP of $410.02? I am not understanding the need to purchase the tickets first through UT, then upgrade? Is it because some visitors may decide that they are not interested in the AP after visiting the parks? I was told by a customer service Universal, that IF you decide to purchase the AP you must do so before you leave the parks on the last day of your visit(which makes total sense). Just trying to understand
the logic behind "upgrading" versus getting the AP before you enter for the first time. THANKS!
