Can I bring non-alcoholic beer on a Disney Cruise?

First, you may bring your drink of choice onboard with you (non-alcoholic, too)! To bring your own alcohol onboard, you are limited to beer and wine, and limited in capacity per adult to enjoy in your stateroom. Please know the drinks must be in their original containers and in your carry-on for embarkation day.



Yes, you can bring non-alcoholic beer on a Disney Cruise, but it is treated under the same strict beverage policy as standard alcohol. As of 2026, guests 21 and older may bring a maximum of six 12-ounce beers (or two bottles of wine) per person at the beginning of the voyage and at each port of call. This applies to non-alcoholic versions as well. Crucially, these must be packed in your carry-on luggage; if you pack them in your checked bags, they will be confiscated and discarded. All containers must be original and unopened. If you want more than six, you'll need to purchase them from the onboard bars like O'Gills Pub or the 687 Pub. This policy allows you to enjoy your preferred brand of 0.0% brew while on your balcony, provided you follow the specific "hand-carry" logistics required for all specialty beverages.

Disney Cruise Line will allow you to bring your own soda onboard. However, it must be carried onto the ship in a day bag no larger than 22 wide by 14 high by 9 deep. So your wheeled collapsible cooler needs to meet these dimensions or find a different bag to carry the soda in.

Cups – Yep, you read that right. Disney Cruise Line offers free soft drinks on the pool decks all day and night. But, the cups they have to fill are small. To avoid having to leave your perfect spot next to the pool, bring a large cup with a lid on it, bonus points if it is insulated to keep the ice longer!

Final word. On most cruises, you're welcome to wander the ship with a drink in your hand, at least in most areas. It's just like one large resort, so grab your favourite tipple and then find your perfect spot to enjoy it. Just make sure you ask for plastic glasses if you want to head over to a pool or hot tub.
