For the record, I just updated the charts in the 1st post so that they are all there for 2 to 10 day Base tickets.
(I didn’t bother charting PH or PH+ since they are essentially the same with some $ amount added on top.)
I also didn’t jigger with the Y-Axis to make the $ match since cheaper tickets would look too smoothed out if I made the range large enough to catch everything for all ticket types.
I’ve got a bunch more work to do in my spreadsheet to make it usable for anything else yet.
But, folks might find this quick table interesting: These boxes at the top report the minimum and maximum prices for Base tickets by park days and the “Swing” between the lowest and highest amounts over ALL dates out there to next December.
Of course, you won’t likely see that large a swing in cost a few days or even a week apart, so you wouldn’t be able to reap that kind of savings by shifting your start window - you’d have to choose a different time of year.
Running a very quick thumbnail calculation out of curiosity, I just compared the difference in prices for 9 day Base tix by comparing what the difference in ticket price was if you shifted 1, 2, 3… up to 6 days back.
(Note: these are the Maximum change for all dates, there are plenty of times where a shift in date will only save a few $.)
Remember that 9 day tickets have a 13 day use window.
So, If I didn’t make any mistakes, looks to me that with those tickets you could possible save up to $18.98 per adult ticket with a 4 day shift back.
Getting those $30 savings with a starting day shift wouldn’t work, because you’d end up losing one of the park days you paid for. (9 day tix + 5 days shifted = 14 days, which is larger than your use window.)
OK, busy day, my brain is cramped. Time to drive home!
