Popcorn refills.

[jenbuFL]

We leave next week for our Alaskan cruise and while I was starting to pack I found our refillable popcorn bucket from our cruise last year on the Fantasy. Does anyone know if we can reuse last years popcorn bucket for refills on another cruise?

I have heard good reports of that happening, but have not done it ourselves.

I keep seeing posts about the popcorn, but no prices given.

How does the cost break down?

Regular Popcorn cost - ?
Refillable Bucket cost - ?
Cost to refill the bucket - ?

I keep seeing posts about the popcorn, but no prices given.

How does the cost break down?

Regular Popcorn cost - 3.50
Refillable Bucket cost - 7.50
Cost to refill the bucket - 3.50

costs are approximate. The buckets are bigger than the regular popcorn size, by about 1/3.

They charge 15% gratuity on the popcorn too.

Thanks Justacrusier and Bree!!

Maybe a dumb question, but does the 7.50 include your first popcorn serving? In other words, is buying the bucket initially only 4 more than one popcorn?

Are the buckets the same on the ships as they are in the theme parks?

Assuming I can't take my refillable bucket from the parks and have it refilled on a ship.

Ok, I am not tracking. If the refill price is the same as a regular popcorn, why am I refilling a bucket?

The bucket is about 1/3 larger than the regular popcorn box.

We bought a popcorn bucket on our 2014 Alaskan cruise and did successfully get it refilled on our 2015 E. Caribbean cruise. It proved quite handy to pack smallish delicate fish extender gifts in on the way home.

Thanks for all the great information guys! Even if we don't use it I'll still bring it along.

Are the popcorn buckets cruise line specific? Anyone have a picture?

Popcorn bucket in park was same in size & shape, but had a different graphic on it than the one on the ship

Are the buckets the same on the ships as they are in the theme parks?

 

[sassysocks]

Correct me if I am wrong, but they only sell popcorn during the nighttime shows?

I've seen it down by the movie theatre as well for about 10 mins before the show (at least on the Magic)

I'd love to see pictures too. We have 2 popcorn buckets that I found last week, but I am not sure if they are from WDW, DCL, or Disney on Ice. Would be a nice option to reuse it on our cruise as I do not want to bring another home.

Here you go...here is a pic of the popcorn bucket that we got last summer on the Fantasy. I do want to try and bring it on board in a couple of weeks just in case we can get the refills...

Thanks for the picture - I'm surprised it's a parks bucket - I was hoping for a cruise ship graphic. Oh well, at least that's one we don't have.
