Adding a day to discount tickets

Disneyland
1

I know several years ago that if you bought a discount ticket from a 3rd party if you waited until after tapping in for the first day you could add a day and only pay the ticket window difference instead of losing the discount amount as well?

Does this still work?

I have a 4 day hopper from UT if I try to add a day now I have to pay the difference between a 4 and 5 day plus the amount that the 4 day was discounted.

I’m sorry I don’t know! My only experience with tickets at DL is direct from them. And the one time I have ever upgraded discount tickets was at WDW and I did have to bridge that whole gap of not just the discount but a price update, even though we’d used them. :woman_facepalming:

Thanks. Maybe they caught on. UT will let me return the ticket and buy a 5 day but it’s only $10 cheaper than upgrading with Disney so not sure it’s worth the hassle :rofl:

My upgrade fiasco at WDW was in 2016 so I don’t know if WDW just never had that loophole or what. But yea, I think for $10 I would also just go directly to Disney. However, the line at the booths can be long and you have to do it during park time so that’s another consideration.

When ya comin’ to DL??? :smiley:

I can upgrade it online. Was just curious if I could save by tapping in my first day. Probably not worth the hassle or risk there aren’t any park reservations.

Be there in 2 months! :tada:

Aw man, but you’re gonna plan a trip back to it before that ends, right?

This is what happens when you plan a trip a whole year out, booked DVC at 11 months for a fabulous 2 bedroom at the Disneyland Hotel Villas, and then all this stuff gets announced when it would be next to impossible to change dates with 5 people from 5 different families. Sigh.
I am going back in June or July to see all the new stuff. I am also going in October and December, but think the 70th stuff will be on hiatus until 2026 due to Halloween and Christmas in the parks.

She definitely should! I know a person or five who will gladly join her.
