    Hi, myself and my family are due to have a split resort stay soon with a Disney cruise in the middle of each stay! If I purchase a resort cup at the beginning of the stay will it stay valid for the rest of the trip when we disembark from the ship?

    Hey There, Hi There, Ho There, Georgina!

    Welcome to planDisney! We are THRILLED you stopped by and honored to help you plan your upcoming trip to Disney World! It looks like you will be arriving in a few days—WOO HOO! We know you are getting excited to experience the adventure of a lifetime, so it's time to pull out your suitcases and pack your Mickey ears. We can't wait to "See You Real Soon!"

    OK...this is a GREAT question! So, are you ready for some MAGICAL news?! After speaking to a very helpful Cast Member, I am very happy to share with you that you CAN purchase a resort cup at the beginning of your stay AND your cups will still be valid when you return to your Disney Resort after your swashbuckling time on the high seas! The Cast Member stated that when you return to your Disney Resort, just let the front desk know. From there, they will give you instructions on how to reactivate your mug if it is no longer working. 

    While you are on land at the "Most MAGICAL Place On Earth", I highly recommend that you and your family experience the EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival! This is a breathtaking celebration of nature, bursting with vibrant blooms and stunning topiaries of beloved Disney characters. Kids and adults alike love exploring the themed gardens and family-friendly play areas, and you can't miss Butterfly Landing. The Outdoor Kitchens serve fresh, seasonal flavors from around the world, making it a treat for the senses. Oh, and you can't miss live entertainment at the Garden Rocks Concert Series! I was just there last week, and it was so much fun! With beautiful scenery and interactive exhibits, it’s the perfect blend of fun, food, and flowers for the whole family.

    For any last-minute planning, make sure you check out the Disney Parks Blog for the most up-to-date information regarding all things Disney! Mickey and his pals have so many surprises planned, and we don't want you to miss a single one!

    If you have other questions, please let us know. We are here to help in any way!

    Have a MAGICAL day!
