My son is going to be in marching band at Disney (Magic Kingdom) this April, and the group is offering the parents/families who are going to purchase the discounted 4-Day park hopper that the students in the band are receiving. It's a significant discount. My husband, daughter and I will be going down there and staying for several days beyond when the marching band leaves (leaving my son with us as well)...so we were going to buy tickets on our own for the three of us not in the marching band since we need 7 days, and then a 3 day ticket for my son. But I wondered if they will let us upgrade the 4-day park hopper to 7 days. In the past, we have been able to upgrade pre-purchased tickets from travel agencies that offer at a small discount, but they looked the same as regular tickets, so when we went to the gate to upgrade, they only charged the difference between the two # of days for each ticket from the gate price (not difference from new # of days at gate price to old # of days at discount price).
But since these 4-day park hoppers are at a significant discount through the performing arts consultants at Disney World, I don't know what the tickets look like or if they will be coded with special restrictions.
Either way, we will purchase one of the discounted tickets for my son, in case it isn't upgradable, and then at least he will have the two. But I wondered if someone here might know anything about that and whether I should just get the discounted tickets for all of us.
TIA!
