Resort Refillable Mug

If you purchase the Disney Dining Plan, it comes with the plan! The mug gives you unlimited access to coffee, soda, and tea at your resort.

By Leave a Comment

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland is about to undergo one of the biggest pivots since the land opened, and it’s happening fast.

Galaxy’s Edge
