Wondering if boat still goes from W.L. to Contemp?
Thanks so much. For some reason I thought they did away with that.View attachment 960161

They suspended the Blue Flag route during COVID-19 and it took a long time to return but it has returned in October, 2023.Thanks so much. For some reason I thought they did away with that.
The limited hours only require a single crew shift to save expenses.If you’d like it to start earlier in the day like it used to, let your resort know.
Is the end time 4:50? Not sure if I’m reading that correctlyThe limited hours only require a single crew shift to save expenses.

It says 10:45pmIs the end time 4:50? Not sure if I’m reading that correctly
That is true. But they used to do two shifts and could again if demand was higher.The limited hours only require a single crew shift to save expenses.

Not sure if it changed recently, but in September the boats were running in both directions, we had the option of boats going to Wilderness Lodge first or Ft Wilderness first from the Contemporary. Was going to just take the Ft Wilderness boat since we had already waited like 45 minutes for even one boat to show up, but the CM told us to wait for the WL one instead since it should come soon and would get us there faster being the first stop, and sure enough it arrived just before the Ft Wilderness boat pulled away.And remember the boats (when they do run between WL, FW, CR) run only in ONE direction IIRC. Somebody will have to tell me what direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) that is. I used to know before the covid shutdown but don't know the current direction because I haven't used it since then.
But it is ONLY in one direction. Not a show stopper but it helps to know that it might be a longer ride with an extra stop and not a direct ride to where you want to go.

As I posted earlier in the 2nd post of this thread when the Blue Flag boats returned in October, 2023. They began running at 3 PM daily which the they still do today. ThePS - now just have to figure out what the time-of-day on these bi-directional boats is.

No, they close around 10:45 every night. The variable is only because two guys can’t close three docks all at the same time. I would be at the dock of whichever resort you are currently at by 10:30 to make sure you catch the last boat.Ending times depend on more factors including MK closing times plus other events in the 3 resort circle, no?
