\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to announce plans for a new Disney Vacation Club property called Disney Riviera Resort coming to Walt Disney World Resort,\u201d Chapek said. \u201cOur Vacation Club Members are among our most loyal fans, and we think that they will love what we have planned, especially the rooftop restaurant that will offer unbelievable views of nighttime spectaculars at both Epcot and Hollywood Studios.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition, Chapek announced that a whole new transportation system of gondolas is planned, called the Disney Skyliner, to give guests a never-before-seen birds-eye view of Walt Disney World and connect the new Disney Vacation Club property, Disney\u2019s Art of Animation, Pop Century and Caribbean Beach resorts with Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios and the International Gateway at Epcot.<\/p>\n

Estimated to open in fall 2019, this new resort experience is slated to be the 15^{th<\/sup>Disney Vacation Club property with approximately 300 units spread across a variety of accommodation types.<\/p>\n}
