\"Refillable<\/p>\n

It’s one of the most common questions that people ask. Is the\u00a0Rapid Fill Refillable Mug<\/a> sold at Walt Disney World resort hotels a good deal or not? Well, for some the answer to that question is easy because the mug is already included in their Disney Dining Plan<\/a> package. But for those who have to pay out of pocket for the mug, that question gets a little more ambiguous. Today, I’m here to answer those burning questions you may have about the\u00a0Rapid Fill Refillable Mug system.<\/p>\n

What is the Rapid Fill Refillable Mug?<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Rapid Fill Refillable Mug is a hard plastic mug that can be found at Walt Disney World resort hotels. These mugs come with a cute outside design and many different colors, which can be helpful if the whole family has a mug to let everyone know who’s mug is who’s. In addition, during the Halloween and holiday seasons, Disney has been introducing mugs with special designs specific for the occasion! Each mug contains an RFID (radio frequency identification) chip in the bottom of the cup. This is very important to know….more on that in a second.<\/p>\n

Mugs that are purchased are good for up to 14 consecutive days after buying them.\u00a0 Wait…what do you mean they are good for up to 14 days? How can a mug expire? Well, remember that RFID chip I talked about? It is programmed when the Rapid Fill Refillable Mug is purchased. This chip is what ends up dispensing your soda from the fountain. (Again, I’ll explain more about this in a second.)<\/p>\n

One thing to note when purchasing your mug: They are activated for use for a full calendar day; not based off a 24 hour period. This means that if you bought your mug at 10:00 p.m. and used it, the first use day will end at 11:59 p.m. that evening. This is not really giving you the full value of your mug.<\/p>\n

What Beverages Are Included with a Refillable Mug Purchase?<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Guests can use the Rapid Fill Refillable Mug for about 14 oz of soda, hot chocolate, hot tea, iced tea, and coffee. Soda options include Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero Sugar, Sprite, Fanta Orange, Barq\u2019s Root Beer, and Minute Maid Lemonade. Of course, options change. Make sure to look at the offerings before purchasing the mug to make sure what you really want is indeed being offered.<\/p>\n

Not included with the purchase of your refillable mug: milk, fruit juice, or alcoholic beverages<\/p>\n

How Much Do Mugs Cost?<\/h3>\n

The cost of a Rapid Fill Refillable Mug is $19.99, plus tax and Disney says these mugs are valid for the entire length of your stay, up to 14 days. The price for the mug is the same whether you are staying for 2 days or if you are staying at the resort for 14. Those Guests who have purchased a Disney Dining Plan<\/a> will receive a Refillable Mug that is included with the price of the dining plan.<\/p>\n

In addition, Disney has recently added a new version of the refillable mug. This is a stainless steel version that is vacuum insulated that costs $29.99, or if you are on the Disney Dining Plan, you can upgrade to this type of mug for an additional $10.<\/p>\n

Where Can I Purchase and Use the Refillable Mugs?<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These mugs and refill stations can be found in the food courts of most resorts. Some resorts do not have a food court, so these mugs are also available at select quick service restaurants, pool bars or other locations. At select resorts, there may be more than one Refillable Mug Refill Station.<\/p>\n
