Coke or Pepsi?

[kamcgrory]

Coke or Pepsi products offered on the Disney cruise line ships? I am a hard-core Diet Coke drinker, and just watched a You-Tube video of someone stating that no Coke products onboard. Hoping that this was not true.

Only Coke products on the 4 cruises I've been on. I bring my own cans of Pepsi.

Unsubscribe from that channel… Disney and Coca Cola have one of the longest running exclusivity deal. Walt used it to finance Disneyland’s construction in the 50’s. They can only sell their products across their properties.

Sad but true - only Coke products at Disney - I’m a Diet Pepsi addict and bring my own to WDW…

Unsubscribe AND report it for false information.

How could someone not know this if they've ever been in a Disney park?!?

Have had delicious diet coke on all of my 24 cruises

Definitely Coke. There’s a long standing relationship between the two companies that I do not see going away any time soon. Just got off the Magic yesterday and this is still the case.

Since 1990 it has been Coca Cola Products only. Prior to that both were sold in Disneyland and WDW as Pepsi was the original sponsor of It's A Small World. https://www.wdwinfo.com/disneylandcalifornia/how-pepsi-helped-shape-the-disney-parks/

Pepsi was the original sponsor of It's A Small World.

Pepsi also sponsored the Golden Horseshoe Review in Disneyland for years.

That’s not true at all. Both Coke and Pepsi were sold at Disney Parks until Coca-Cola got exclusivity in the 90’s. Pepsi was the longtime sponsor of It’s a Small World, and currently has exclusivity at Shanghai Disneyland.

Coke products on board you can pack your own Pepsi (I had a former manager who told me he would always bring his own Mountain Dew whenever him and his family did anything Disney related)

Oooo. I do love me a nice cold Diet-Dew too. But I am good with the Diet Coke onboard. Thanks everyone!

no coke zero?

Just so you know, the Diet Coke tends to taste a bit funky (at least on the Magic and the Fantasy, but I've heard on the other ships too). I'm not sure why, but it isn't as good as regular Diet Coke. But I will take funky Diet Coke and Coke Zero over Pepsi products any day.

I agree-it's like the carbonation:syrup ratio is off or the syrup isn't quite the same...or something. On our last cruise I laughingly told DH that y'all don't think anyone can drink that much diet coke on a cruise to rationalize the price of concierge (they have cans, seemingly endless cans) that taste "normal" and he said "they don't know you." Honestly even when I'm in non-CL I'll buy the cans from the bar/room service because the funky taste just isn't worth it.

no coke zero?

pretty sure there was coke zero on the Wish last week at least one of the fountain drink stations on deck 11, but not 100%
