    Hi, any update on if the Skyliner will be closed in Jan 2025 for maintenance?

    Hiya, Kit! 

    Can you believe that we're almost to 2025? How exciting that you're not only counting down to the new year but a Walt Disney World Resort vacation as well!

    It sounds like you'll be calling a Disney Resorts Collection hotel along the Disney Skyliner your magical home away from home, and whether you're hanging your mouse ears at Disney's Riviera Resort, Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort, Disney's Pop Century Resort, or Disney's Art of Animation Resort, I think you'll find that the convenience of soaring into EPCOT or Disney's Hollywood Studios is its own special kind of magic!

    You're clearly a veteran Mouseketeer, Kit, because you're aware that the Disney Skyliner typically undergoes refurbishment each January. However, because we are already halfway through December and a January refurbishment has not yet been announced, I'm led to believe that we might expect the 2025 refurbishment to occur later in the year. Of course, this is just my opinion and any official information regarding a refurbishment will be shared on the Disney Skyliner webpage, so if being among the first to know about the refurbishment is important to you, you'll want to check there periodically. Happily, even if the Disney Skyliner is not accessible during your magical vacation, you'll still have access to Walt Disney World's bus, boat, and monorail transportation, and access to these transportation options is included in your stay. Just like magic! 

    I'm sure you were hoping for a more definitive answer, Kit, but for now, my best advice is to monitor the Walt Disney World website as you continue your countdown. In the interim, feel free to stop back by planDisney with any other questions that arise about your upcoming vacation. 

    Thinking Happy Thoughts,
