    Aimara from MO Asked Please note that experiences, policies, pricing and other offerings are subject to change and may have changed since the date of this answer.

    We only have one day at magic kingdom and one day at Hollywood studios, we are not staying on property. Can we take the skyliner to one of the hotels if we make a lunch/dinner reservation to have a midday brake? Can we hang out at the lobby?

    Greetings, Aimara! You will be visiting my two favorite Disney Parks! You’re so lucky!

    With attractions featuring Toy Story, Indiana Jones, and Star Wars, along with Fantasmic!, my favorite nighttime show at Disney World, I would adventure through Disney’s Hollywood Studios all day and night! And who can resist the storybook-like nostalgia, mixed with modern-day thrills, offered at Magic Kingdom!? You are going to have two great days at Disney World, Aimara!

    On the day you visit Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you can ride the Disney Skyliner to the resort hotels for dining at the hotels. However, the Skyliner is not linked to Magic Kingdom at all, so it won’t be an option for travel on your Magic Kingdom day. While visiting Magic Kingdom, you can board the Monorail at Magic Kingdom and ride it to any of the three hotels that are situated along the Monorail loop. Those hotels include Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa!

    My top dining recommendations at each include 1900 Park Fare (Grand Floridian), Chef Mickey’s (Contemporary), and ‘Ohana (Polynesian)! Each of these locations offers delicious Disney Dining along the Monorail loop!

    Sit back, relax, and let Disney do the driving!

    Dreams do come true!
