Upgrading Ticket mania tickets?

[MagicalMom]

We bought 6 day passes (non-hopping) from Ticket Mania for our July trip. We have decided that we would like to add 2 more days on. Is this possible, even if we didn't buy them from Disney? Will they really only charge us 3.00 a piece for each additional day? Thanks.

Yes they will upgrade your passes. The credit they give you toward your new passes may be the discounted price you paid, or the gate price of the passes. Last month, the people we were with upgraded their passes that I purchased from Hotwire Savings Club for them. The group of people that did it at Poly guest services had to pay a little bit more than the people that upgraded at MK guest relations. Looks like MK guest relations credited the gate price, while Poly guest services credited the actual price paid. This was on the same day, for the same passes!

Hmmmm, was there much difference between what the 2 groups paid? I was hoping to upgrade while checking into POR & have the tickets added to our room cards also.

They sometimes only credit the wholesale price of the ticket (what Ticketmania paid Disney) which is even lower.

Magic Your Way passes should be upgraded based on the gate price of the old pass versus the gate price of the pass you would have wanted. So "adding two days" to a five day pass should cost about six dollars.

For (pre-2005) hopper plus passes your old pass may be valued lower, based on what the ticket seller or travel agent paid for the bulk tickets.
