Upgrading parkhopper to AP?

[kangamama]

We've already used two days on our three day hoppers -- can I still upgrade it to an AP today (on our third day)? Thanks in advance.

Yes, but the start date for the pass will be the day you first used your 3-day tickets.

As GrtWtNorth said, you can still upgrade it, but you have to do it today while the ticket is still valid.

I've read this over and over on this board and when we upgraded ours not only did the AP go into effect the day we upgraded (9 days after first use) but our tickets were bridged. So I guess every case is different.

I've upgraded many tickets many times and the AP has always been backdated to the first day of use of the parkhoppers. And the price has never been bridged.

OP upgrade today and you'll be fine but expect your AP to be backdated to the first day you used your tickets.

That's too bad. We just did ours two weeks ago. Got the Orbitz deal 5 day PH and were given $300 credit. We used our first day on the 4th and went back on the 13th. Our passes expire April 13, 2015. Maybe our CM was new?

Thanks for the replies. In the end, I decided not to bother. Too hot, and too crowded this trip. I'll wait till we go again next feb, and possibly do it then.

We got in on the Ebates/Orbitz deal, and got the 5 day ticket for the 4 day price, plus got the 20% back. I expected to only get the 4-day price when we upgraded to AP's, but we got the full $300. We used them first on 5/6/14 and upgraded on 5/10/14. When we got home and I went to register them online, I found that they were only good until 5/20/14! I called, and the CM said that sometimes when they upgrade from a PH, the CM will forget to change the date of expiration (of the PH) in the system to the new AP expiration. She went ahead and pushed it out until 5/10/15, even though it should have been the date of first use of our PH. I was pretty pleased with the result.

You're lucky you checked online and caught it. A lot of people would have shown up at the gate a month later and had quite a mess to sort out. Of course, if they still printed the expiration date on the back of the pass...
