So it seems like it is the luck of the draw for whichever CMs are working that night!
Bingo.

Anyone know what the current pool hours are for doubloon lagoon? Just wondering what to expect for my upcoming October trip now that a fence is up around the pool area.
Okay, I have an odd question. How horrible is the toilet paper? We have never stayed at FQ before. And yes, I am beside myself with excitement.Anyway, last year, when we stayed at Coronado, the toilet paper was not good. Like sand paper not good. I'm just trying to figure out if I should pack my own. LOL.
I hate to be the bearer of bad/sad news, but my family is at POFQ right now,and at least in building 3 the Blushing Orange scent and Mickey head toiletries are no more.
We have now had our toiletries restocked twice, and it is a brand called H2O+. The shampoo and conditioner are called Sea Marine, the body lotion and soaps are called Sea Salt. Sea Salt isn't bad, so far I'm iffy on the Sea Marine. Smells ok, but more earthy than sea to me.
Anyway, just wanted to give an update.
They will run in a little rain, not a downpour and definitely NOT in a thunderstorm.Does anyone know if the boats to Disney Springs run if it is raining / thunderstorms, or if there is a bus service instead?
Thanks
Not when there are thunderstorms or windy conditions . We been on when there has been a bit of rain. There is always a bus even when the boats are running.Does anyone know if the boats to Disney Springs run if it is raining / thunderstorms, or if there is a bus service instead?

Is Sasscagoula QS up and running 100%? I don't remember reading about it. Looking to visit resort in early August while at Disney Springs

We were at POFQ from May 23-31 and the boats weren't running the whole time. Very disappointing. I think the water may have been too low in the canal?
I wonder how things will progress with the drought conditions in Florida. No campfires, but who wants a campfire in Florida in July?We were at POFQ from May 23-31 and the boats weren't running the whole time. Very disappointing. I think the water may have been too low in the canal?

I wonder if perhaps you were just unlucky at the times you wanted to use the boats? We were there from the 17th May until 31st and there was only one evening we were disappointed because we were told the boats weren't running because of expected thunderstorms. Apparently if there is lightening within a 6 mile radius, they stop the boats. We enjoyed riding them so much, it is just the loveliest way to get to DS, that on the last morning of our trip (31st) we made a special trip by boat to Disney Springs before going to the airport. Equally, we could just have been lucky on the days we wanted to take the boat![]()
That's really interesting about the TV. We never checked out the Disney resort channel so it was a case of "ignorance is bliss"!I guess that is the case then. I never saw them running though and the message on our TV said the boats were closed "due to weather" the whole time we were there. We had a car and drove to Disney Springs instead.

I was checking the 2018 resort rates for POFQ this morning and it appears that Sunday nights are now more expensive than weekdays. So Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights now have an up-charge.
