It appears as if the Disney Rapid Fill program for the refillable mugs is going into effect as of right now, Aug. 14, 2013.
WDWMagic reported it, and Doctor Disney has confirmed that the Rapid Fill machines are indeed in place at all Walt Disney World Resorts. They are not all working with the new system as of yet, but are supposed to be doing so by the end of the month.
Some Disney Resorts do have the new system up and running so be on the lookout to see if your resort is one of them. If it isn’t, it will be soon.

A few things to know ahead of time:
A few things:
~ Guests will be able to purchase days for their refillable mugs in increments of one, two, three, or length of stay (four or more) and here is the pricing:
- $8.99 for 1 day
- $11.99 for 2 days
- $14.99 for 3 days
- $17.99 for length of stay (4+ days)
~ A “day” is a a calendar day, not a 24-hour time frame. So if purchase your Rapid Fill mug at noon, then you have 12 hours remaining on day one. If you purchase it at 7:00 p.m., then you have five hours remaining in day one and so on.
~ The Rapid Fill refillable mugs will be included in the Disney Dining Plan.
~ Guests that don’t want a refillable mug can purchase the regular paper cups that will be able to be refilled four times.
