Upgrading to Ap

[Lesverts]

Sorry to post another one of these but didn't want to bump an old thread.

I am going in June with tickets that are the 'buy x, get an extra day free' deal. Now if I were to upgrade to an AP would I get credit for a full x+1 or just x? It doesn't make a huge difference but with Disney every dollar matters. With the cost at x+1 it works out to needing only to use the AP for 4 more days to make it worthwhile, which would be to go to Food and Wine.

Disney's computers don't know what that "x+1" deal is. They just see the total number of days on the ticket. As long as the CM who does your upgrade does the price bridging properly, you'll get credit for the total number of days at gate price.

That is to say...
The OP needs to actually USE the original ticket to enter a theme park at least one time BEFORE doing the upgrade.
Then, the CM who is doing the upgrade will be able to perform the price bridging properly.

I know that's the common wisdom here, but in practice, I've never seen a situation where it matters.

Having participated in dozens of "we got the wrong price for our upgrade" situations on these boards over the years,
I have.

Now, if it were up to me, it wouldn't make a difference, either.
Taking it a step further, it wouldn't matter (to ME) if tickets bought directly from Disney would be price bridged.
