    If we do a split stay with the DDP, can our mugs just be renewed rather than new mugs being issued? We certainly don't need to take home ten mugs!

    Hiya Deborah,

    Welcome back to planDisney! How fun that you are planning a visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth during Thanksgiving. A turkey day in the theme parks has been on my bucket list for such a long time. I mean, nothing would be more iconic than dining at Liberty Tree Tavern during Thanksgiving!

    But let's chat about refillable mugs before I go down that delicious tangent! So, great question about refillable mugs, Deborah. When you have a dining plan, you are entitled to a resort refillable mug as part of your dining plan. So, if you have a split stay at two resort hotels, for example, and a dining plan for each one with a family of five, that would be ten refillable mugs. Unfortunately, at this time, you are not able to reactivate a refillable mug; the technology doesn't allow for that. That said, each refillable mug, once activated, is active for 14 days. Depending on how long your stay is, you can use the refillable mug from your first stay for the subsequent one. If you need more time beyond 14 days, you can redeem the refillable mugs from your next dining plan. Just remember that the opportunity to redeem unused mugs will expire at midnight the night you check out of your resort hotel.

    I hope this was helpful, Deborah! I completely understand not wanting to have to add additional mugs to your luggage, especially when that luggage space could be used for Mickey ears or bubble wands. If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to come back and see us. We would be happy to help you plan the very best magical vacation.

    Happy Planning,

    Ashley F.
