At least Disney lets you bring your own on board, if you prefer. Most other cruiselines officially discourage that practice. But I'm not sure if the beverage chiller in the room would get Bud cold enough for me to drink. The farther away it is from a microbrew, the colder I have to have it!

And thanks, Mark, for trying to get info from Disney about the mug testing. Sounds like the official line is that this really is a test - so they don't want to commit to any details that could change as the testing continues/before rollout.
So those that are staying at the All Stars in the near future during this testing, make sure you let Disney know about any issues you have with it - so that when/if they DO roll it out everywhere, they get the biggest things taken care of!

I agree, that's just a ridiculous price. You'd have to be drunk already to pay it.

I find it interesting that Disney releases a free dining offer for dates that are, in essence, right around the corner considering that TS eateries are most likely going to be pretty full up by this time. Sure, its not impossible to get a TS ADR at this time, but you have to be flexible in your location choices and dining times.

New visitors to WDW, especially those who do not necessarily understand the DDP, may have a difficult time getting what they want.
