AOA refrigerator capacity

[jess2022]

We are staying in the Finding Nemo suites in June. One of our kids has allergies so we need to order Ripple milk for him in addition to our regular milk. We also need to keep frozen 2 packs of fish sticks (shopping at garden grocers: 44 fish sticks in a 24.6 oz box). Will the fridge fit 4 or 5 48 oz milk containers and 2 frozen dinners? I see pictures of the fridge online and descriptions that the AOA suites have bigger mini fridges than other values but I don’t see if we can put a couple of half gallons horizontally (I don’t know the depth of the fridge).

I think in the past we had bell services hold some containers for us but I’m not sure if they are allowing that now and would charge $6 each time of delivery.

Can you tell me how this worked out? We’re planning on AoA and in the same allergy / needing to bring milks situation. Thanks!

I think all rooms have a 'cooler'. No freezer.
Most guest put ice in bowl to keep items cooler if need be.

Eek! This makes me wonder if we should switch to ASM family suites. Can anyone else confirm the frig at AoA? I thought they were bigger than the standard room coolers but smaller than ASM.

I think the OP returned to report in post #20. No freezer but they were able to get a separate freezer brought in.

Thank you. I missed that.

We were only able to secure the separate freezer one time (out of 3 requests). They may bring it in for medical reasons but not for food storage. It blocks a good portion of the kitchenette area btw.

The fridge (has no freezer section) but is pretty decent sized and we were able to fit 3 ripple 48 oz and 2 2% half gallon boxes (in addition to coke, water bottles, triple zero yogurt and watermelon chunks). Garden grocers, Amazon Prime and Whole Foods carry Ripple brand milk. Regular milk is available in half gallon size at Landscape of Flavors (1% or whole half gallon milk is $3.69). Single serving soy milk is also available for purchase.

The restaurants were a miss in terms of communication between waitresses and chef and none brought out the ripple milk on our Dec 2022 trip (April trip CRT and Landscape of Flavors QS gave us ripple milk; apple juice and carb heavy meals were not a great combo). We did order one tetra pack (ripple chocolate milk) but it was in our room as we trusted the restaurants. Topolinos had a vegan egg scramble and vegan waffles. There are vegan ‘just egg’ omelets that can be made in a toaster (whole foods carries them).

AOA doesn’t have a toaster in the room and I don’t believe toasters are allowed in a room. We don’t feel safe using public toaster with kids allergies.

I now don’t bother requesting a freezer. I purchased a soft sided cooler and take our fish sticks and put them in a gallon sized ziplock bag, cover them with ice and put it in the fridge. Remember to order or take ketchup packets.



I also take a microwave safe cup to warm up milk and sometimes a plate (you can wash the plate if it’s removable, I believe some of the microwaves don’t have a removable plate). I order dish liquid if I’m staying at a value and take my own sponge.

Only the suites have a microwave
