The loss of the 14 day I think is a bigger deal than Disney may realize.
I haven't checked.... but what is the price of the flex option compared to just adding more days to your ticket? So, for example you buy a 5 day ticket, want to use it for 3 days, then go to where-ever for 4 days, then back to WDW for your last 2 days. Would it be cheaper to get a 7 day hopper vs. the flex option? giving you the extension of the 2 days you need. I know doing this you actually won't use all 7 days, but is it cheaper than the flex option??
Actually, you've got it a bit mixed up. If they want 3 days in the park, they can buy a 3-day ticket which has a 5-day use window. Adding another 2 days (a 5-day ticket), allows up to 8 calendar days to use it. In your example, it still wouldn't be long enough for a 4-day gap in the middle. Whether or not the Flex option would be more/less cost-effective may well depend on the dates - but I priced a "low cost" time in late January and the Flex option (at $62.95) was still less expensive than buying a 5-day ticket.
