What does Disney use in their water?

I spent time making sure to confirm this and I verified that bromine is used instead of chlorine to disinfect the water in all rides that use water such as it's a small world in Magic Kingdom Park and Frozen Ever After in EPCOT. Bromine is a good alternative for those with chlorine sensitivities.

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.

There are also a number of counter service locations that have a complimentary water station set up for Guests' use, so keep an eye out for those. Our water bottles do have a filter to them but that is a personal preference. If you are sensitive to the taste of water from other areas, you may prefer to use a filter.
