[Question] annual pass upgrade with a 3-day ticket?

[renthead09]

I currently have an premium AP. I need to upgrade to premier before my trip to WDW in January.

I have friends going this weekend, and would like to go with them. They bought a multi-day ticket and are able to get in early on Saturday. If I buy a ticket the same as them, can I put that cost towards upgrading my current AP?

Thanks for any info or experience anyone might have with this. Cant find an answer anywhere.

No, ticket media can NOT be combined toward an upgrade.

thank you.

I was afraid that was the answer. Maybe I will try begging at the gate or baking cookies for the CM so I dont have to wait an hour to meet up with them. hahahaha

Sometimes if you are 1 person, trying to get in with your group, the head person manning the gates, can "approve" you to go in early.
That happened when I took my friend for his birthday. His ticket had Early Entry. We got to the gate & I was "OK'd" to go in, since it was just me & not a group of people.

All you can do is try, worst they can say is no.
