Hi Edward!
Just like you, I'm so excited about the
Disney Skyliner! I can't wait for the Skyliner's gondolas to begin transporting Guests throughout Walt Disney World Resort. It will be so nice to have an alternate mode of transportation from multiple Disney Resort hotels to
Disney's Hollywood Springs and
Epcot. Plus, I'm sure the gondolas will offer an amazing view of Walt Disney World Resort!
Since you will be staying at
Disney's Pop Century Resort, you will have access to a Skyliner Station right at your hotel. I just got back from a vacation at
Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort, which also has a Skyliner Station, and it would have been so nice to use the Disney Skyliner for our transportation. Currently, we know that the Disney Skyliner will begin transporting Guests in the fall of 2019, but we don't yet have an exact opening date. So I recommend that you keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for announcements about the Disney Skyliner. Over the past several months, the blog has posted several status updates about the Disney Skyliner and I expect that they may post plans about the opening of the Disney Skyliner as autumn approaches. Hopefully, it will be open for you to enjoy during your trip!
Even if the Disney Skyliner isn't open for your vacation, you will still have a variety of transportation options for your vacation travel. You can use
complimentary bus transportation to travel from Disney's Pop Century Resort to the theme parks, water parks and
Disney Springs. Plus, you can take advantage of the
Minnie Van Service during your vacation for private, direct transportation throughout Walt Disney World Resort!
Let us know if we can help you again as you continue planning your trip. T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
