Is Disney Cruise water drinkable?

The water from the rooms is safe to drink directly from the faucet. The drinking water onboard the ships is either obtained from the local authorities in the ships' home ports or made onboard the cruise ship in their desalination process. This process removes dissolved salts and other impurities from the water.
