I'm taking extended family to WDW for the first time this fall for the F&W Festival. Everyone in my immediate family already has either an annual pass or a non-expiring hopper ticket to use, but the newbies will need passes. Some of them will be there for 3 days and some for 4 days. We definitely will spend time only in EPCOT the first day, but may opt to park hop on subsequent days. If I can believe what I read in certain places about cost of tickets, would it be less expensive to buy Magic Your Way tickets (without any extra options) online prior to the trip, and then upgrade to the hopper pass on the second day we're there? It seems that maybe the current gate price of the ticket would be applied toward the price of the hopper and each person would pay the difference to upgrade to the hopper, which would be less expensive than buying a hopper ticket for the total number of days to begin with. I'm not trying to "cheat the system" or anything, just make the trip as affordable as possible for my relatives.
I hope this all makes sense, and someone can give me some good advice!
