Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Ashley. It looks like you'll be enjoying a Walt Disney World Resort vacation in just a few days! That's super exciting.
My family just enjoyed a stay at Disney's Riviera Resort, and one of our favorite things about this unique Disney Resort hotel is the convenient access to the
Disney Skyliner. It made traveling to and from
Disney's Hollywood Studios and
EPCOT a breeze! My kids especially loved this mode of Disney transportation.
To answer your question, Disney Skyliner hours can vary (even by the day). Typically, the operating hours begin one hour before theme park opening and end an hour and a half after theme park closing. During our most recent stay, signs were posted at the Disney Skyliner entrances that listed the operating hours for the day. We were sure to take note each morning before hopping on a gondola for the theme parks!
Don't forget to download the
My Disney Experience mobile app before your arrival. It's magic at your fingertips! There are lots of cool features on the My Disney Experience mobile app, but one in particular that you may find useful is the Bus Arrival Times feature. To travel to
Magic Kingdom Park and
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park from
Disney's Pop Century Resort, you'll need to rely on Disney bus transportation. The Bus Arrival Times feature provides real-time estimates for when you can expect buses to arrive at your Disney Resort hotel. How cool is that?
I hope this was helpful, Ashley. I'm wishing you a magical Walt Disney World Resort vacation!
Ashley
