    Angry I Just dont get it!

    Why is it that when you book a quick service disney dinning plan it comes with a resort mug.....

    Why is it that when you book a regular disney dinning plan you do not get one...

    Why is it when you book a Deluxe DDP it comes with a resort mug...........




    It doesnt make since that the cheapest and most expensive get a mug but the middle one does not!

    Anyone ever noticed this??????

    Hard to tell why Disney makes the decisions they do. I'm guessing it's based on statistics of some sort.

    Maybe they just forgot? I'd give the dining plan phone line and ask. They may have a better answer than us.

    I have never priced out the dining plan, so I don't know the difference in price. But maybe it is used for upgrade incentive.
    For example, regular dining plan costs X, but if you are going to get(buy) a mug anyway, deluxe is only X dollars more. Idk just a guess.

    The Deluxe DDP is more than $30 more than the Standard DDP and the QS DDP is only $10 less. The mug NOT being part of the Standard DDP is just a way to get more money from the people using the most commonly purchased DDP selection.

    I agree with you totally, but i just think that it is lame for them to give you one included in the quick service plan when you pay more for the Regular plan and dont get one.

    I am sure it is all in the numbers. More folks definitely take the standard dining plan then the others. So they are banking on the majority of people to buy the mugs.

    I just checked the Disney website, and the refillable mug no longer comes with the Quick Service dinning plan - it's only with the Deluxe.

    Although I think it should come with all, at least not that it is only with the Deluxe makes some sense.
