Hi and Welcome to the DISboards

I only have experience with the Soda Mug. Yes it is pay one price and have as much as you want.

Is it worth it? Depends on how much soda you drink. It is free with your meals in the dining room. If that is enough for you then no it is not worth it. If you like to drink a lot during the day and the weather is quite warm then yes it probably would be worth it.

I think now that you don't have to buy the Mug, you can just get a sticker to put on your card and they just give it to you in a glass.

Prices for a four-day cruise on Wonder:

Soda: $20 for one sticker allowing unlimited soda. You can put it on your KTTW and get disposable cups each time, or pay $3 more for a mug you can use. A lanyard for the mug is another $2, plus they hit you with a gratuity for it all. If you drink more than four sodas per day in addition to meal time consumption, it may be worth it. For us it wasn't. There's also free lemonade/fruit punch available outside the port side entrance to Beach Blanket Buffet on Deck 9 you can get without the sticker. My kids would have been OK with that instead of the soda.

Beer Mug: I can't remember the exact price (maybe $9.95?), but it gets you an ESPN mug and 20 oz. drafts for the price of a 16 oz. draft for the duration of the cruise. Doesn't work for bottled/canned beers, obviously, so your selection is typically pretty limited in most places. It's value will be a volume-based decision.


Here's a tip on buying: There's lots of people buying their stickers, mugs, etc. on the first night and everyone seems to line up at the table in the main entrance area. However, there's another table set up in the Promenade Lounge just down the hall to Parrot Cay that's usually not nearly as busy.
