Frances,
Thanks for your question!
The
Disney Skyliner is a fantastic new addition to Walt Disney World!
Since the Skyliner does not connect
Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort directly with the
Magic Kingdom, the fastest way to get from the resort to the Magic Kingdom would not be by using the Skyliner, but instead the
bus service. That would take you about 25 minutes, from the time that you get on your bus.
But if you really want to use the Skyliner for that trip, you can take it to the
Epcot station. That will take about 13-14 minutes. You can then walk through the park, and then hop on a
monorail. After switching monorails at the Transportation & Ticket Center you will finally make it to the Magic Kingdom, but your overall trip could take well over an hour.
I would suggest that you use the bus when going to the Magic Kingdom, and use the Skyliner for visits to Epcot and
Disney's Hollywood Studios. You can also take advantage of the Skyliner for a visit to
Disney's BoardWalk. It is an often overlooked venue for an entertaining family night out!
Have a Magical Vacation!
