Disney Skyliner to resume operation this week after recent incident
Starting today, Oct. 14, the Disney Skyliner at Walt Disney World will resume operation for guests after an incident occurred on Oct. 6 that caused the gondolas to bump into each other and some passengers to be stuck for three hours.
After a complete review by the manufacturer of the gondolas, Disney said that they have made adjustments to their processes and training, and are improving how they communicate with guests about their ride on the Skyliner.
Guests can ride the Skyliner from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. daily, but there will be changes to the transportation system’s operating hours for Oct. 16 to 18 due to system updates:
- Oct. 16 – The Disney’s Hollywood Studios line will be closed while the other two lines are open from 1 to 10:30 p.m.
- Oct. 17 and 18 – All gondola lines will be open from 1 to 10:30 p.m.
