Soda price increase at all locations throughout the Magic Kingdom

Aug 26, 2011

It has been a few years since the last increase, but the time has now come to bump the prices of sodas. The two sizes commonly offered were previously priced at $2.19 and $2.49. The new pricing is $2.59 and $2.89. No changes have yet been made to the pricing of bottled water, coffee, chocolate milk, or juices. Although we've only confirmed this change at the Magic Kingdom, it would be fairly safe to assume these changes will also be in place at all other locations throughout Walt Disney World.

News: Disney World Price Hike on Soda Pop

Aug 28th, 2011 by AJ. Along with the counter service price hikes noted in the parks this past week, we’ll also be paying more for our soda pop fix as well.

Pop Varieties

We heard via twitter from Epcyclopedia today that soda pop prices have risen by $.40 per cup. Old Fountain Drink Prices: $2.19 and $2.49. New Fountain Drink Prices: $2.59 and $2.89.

Studios Central reported that soda pop was $2.79 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios’ Backlot Express (which has refill stations that guests are able to access).

While price hikes aren’t necessarily “news” in Walt Disney World (they’re pretty much an expected standard at least once per year, right?), your family might drink enough soda pop over a week-long visit to have this make a difference. If your family of four purchases five drinks per person, per day, for seven days, that’s $56 extra dollars spent on beverages.

Interestingly, that’s about the same price you’d pay to purchase four refillable mugs. Of course, refillable mugs can’t be used in the parks, which is where you’d most likely be spending your money on soda pop during counter-service meals.

Note: We’re not sure if the price hike continues for table-service restaurant beverages.
