last night when we got back from the pool my parents room (connecting to ours-third floor south wing courtyard) had water leaking into the light fixture in the bathroom. It was pouring out and going. Right down the tub. (That was good. At least it wasn't flooding the room). Outside of the room it was leaking through the vents on the wall and down to the floor. Another gentleman from across the hall said his room was covered in water.
They came to assess the problem and got back to us about moving us to Polynesian two connecting studio rooms. We were happy to be connecting rooms still but sad to be leaving our wilderness lodge home. We've never stayed at the poly, so it would be a new adventure. Kids were sad-we're scheduled to be flag family on our last day Friday. After talking this morning to the concierge, we decided to stay here since they fixed the problem. (Broken air conditioning pipe on the 6th floor--affected about twenty rooms) they just have to make the light fixture safe again with the water that was pooled in it. They told us if we moved to the poly we'd have a view of the pool construction. And that was my fear. We just love our view here at the lodge. They gave us three nights comped back to our room! They have been above and beyond amazing. Drove us in a van this morning so we wouldn't miss our adrs at grand Floridian-being honest about he view from the poly-just amazing! So glad we don't have to leave our home away from home. And happy that they had such prompt attention to the problem. It could have been worse, glad the water in the electrical didn't cause more of a problem than it could have!
On our way now to MK! Have a magical day
Wow, what a night you had and what a mess! We had a big leak once on the 7th floor, but over the sink area. I'm glad you were able to stay put and they made it up to you. The WL van is such a treat and you can really get used to it fast! Have fun being Flag Family
On a side note......... 3 more DAYS!!!!!!! till we arrive
Carry on.
Ouch...but, like you said...you're going to DW! Not sure where you're at in the D/FW area but if you're southwest you may want to try the Austin airport for your next trip. We'll be on the 1st flight out 11/19 and arrive in Orlando around 10:30. We fly out of Austin every chance we get; Hobby used to be our "airport of choice" but we now LOVE going out of Austin. We have to drive 1 1/2 hours to get there but figuring in traffic that's about the same amount of drive time as it is to Hobby. Of course, if you're north of D/FW it wouldn't be worth the drive but wanted to put the thought out there for you. In 2012 I developed an AWFUL finger infection during our trip. It was sore before I left but got progressively worse during the trip. I ended up spending my last afternoon/evening in a 24 hour clinic 
but the trip was SO worth it. The pain goes away when you're in the parks! 
Good luck! 
The Hobby "first flight out" must now be about 30 minutes earlier than the last time I flew out of Hobby! 
It's been about 6 years but I know my flight left at 7 something. Have a SUPER trip 
Poor bus driver

...just a *wee* bit out of the way is putting it mildly 
The clinic doctor in Orlando didn't want to "put me through that" and then have me travel home. It still took a visit the next day to my regular doctor and about 3 weeks but I had all those Disney memories to occupy my thoughts!
