Guests can start traveling via Disney Skyliner in fall 2019!

Scheduled to begin operation this fall, the Disney Skyliner will be a new way to connect Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Epcot to four nearby Disney resort hotels – Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, Disney’s Pop Century Resort, Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort, and the upcoming Disney’s Riviera Resort.

The towers for the Skyliner have been under construction for nearly a year, and are now beginning to see the gondolas being added to their cables. The Disney Parks Blog shared this video on the testing from Jordan Matthews at Walt Disney Imagineering:

Many of the gondolas will feature graphics based on Disney attractions, films and characters. For example, guests may embark on a gondola that, from the ground, looks as though Mickey, Minnie, Pluto or Chip ’n’ Dale are riding along!

Many Disney animated films will be represented on the gondolas, including “Beauty and the Beast,” “Lilo & Stitch,” “Frozen,” “Moana,” “The Princess and the Frog,” “Peter Pan,” “Ralph Breaks the Internet,” “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” and “Zootopia.”
