Do PO-R and PO-FQ share busses at MK and Epcot?

I am still trying to decide where to stay for Icot 20. Since my hubby won't be with for part of the trip, I am staying on site. I can't drive very well at night so I just thought staying on property would be the best option for getting around that weekend. I want to stay at a moderate. I tried to convince him to stay at WL but it's just a little much. We have stayed at PO-R many many times. I kinda wanted to try PO-FQ this time, but wanted to know if they share a bus or have their own busses from MK and Epcot?

It's also my daughter's birthday weekend. We have stayed in the Royal Rooms at PO-R in the past, and I didn't want to take away from that experience and memory by doing it again. So I thought FQ would be fun since I have never stayed there.

They generally have their own busses when leaving MK and Epcot, especially during the busy times. I have had a couple of times, during the middle of the day, when they were shared, but that is when there were just a few people on the bus.

Same with heading to MK/Epcot, in the busy times they will have their own busses, but may share in a quieter time.

In general, sharing seems to be (in my experience) happening less and less, most of the time when I take the bus (other than Disney Springs), FQ and POR have their own.

yay thank you! I didn't want to wait for a crowded bus only to be the last stop if we were staying at FQ.

I have had a few nightmare bus rides at Disney, and a few awful waits just to be smooshed so it's nice to know we will go straight to our hotel.

When we stayed at POFQ last September we did not have to share a bus at all. It was really nice and easy traveling to and from the parks

If they do share busses, then FQ is first to be picked up at the resort and first to be dropped off coming back if that helps

Even when sharing, it wasn't too bad, b/c of the smaller capacity of FQ. However, on bad days or busy times, I do take our rental.

We were there the first week of Feb 2017. Very low attendance. POFQ always had their own buses, never shared with another resort.
