Today Disney has revealed new images and details on what to expect when the Skyliner begins operation in 2018. Here’s a quick glimpse at some of the artist renderings and details direct from Disney. From what Disney revealed today it doesn’t look like\u00a0all<\/em> cabins will feature Disney characters, just a handful that will be soaring around property. There is still no mention of air conditioning, we revealed<\/a>\u00a0that it was unlikely so it seems that this is still the case.<\/p>\n

Select Disney Skyliner cabins will have iconic Disney characters incorporated into their exterior design to give the appearance that a Disney pal is riding along with guests, such as characters from the \u2018Fab Five,\u2019 figures from Disney attractions, fan favorites from movies, and more.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The design of the Disney Skyliner station at International Gateway at Epcot will be inspired by the park\u2019s nearby European Pavilions, and will be covered with metal and glass canopies, hand-painted murals and ornamental steel structures that harken back to the early 18th century Art Nouveau style. Guests traveling to Epcot via the Disney Skyliner will be welcomed to the park with a rare birds-eye view of World Showcase.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Disney\u2019s Caribbean Beach Resort station will be the hub of activity for Disney Skyliner. This station is inspired by the open air village marketplaces of the Caribbean and will showcase the nearby resort\u2019s architectural detailing and color schemes. At this station, passengers will be able to transfer gondola routes to reach their destination, or are invited to sit and admire the waterfront resort setting.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The design style of the station at Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios will fit with that of the park\u2019s main entrance and bus stations. Passengers traveling here from the Disney\u2019s Caribbean Beach Resort station can expect a new aerial perspective of the park\u2019s iconic attractions, like The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Pop Century and the Art of Animation don’t have any images released, but Disney did have a few words to say about the design.<\/p>\n

Disney\u2019s Pop Century Resort and Disney\u2019s Art of Animation Resort will share a Disney Skyliner station that feels whimsical and contextual with both resorts. Upon departing the gondola station, Skyliner passengers will ascend over Hourglass Lake and enjoy a panoramic view of these two colorful resorts.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Disney also released an idea of what to expect when riding on the Skyliner gondolas.<\/p>\n

[The]\u00a0cabins will slow down at the Disney Skyliner turn-station along Buena Vista Drive, where guests can see the mechanical and aerial components that make up the Disney Skyliner.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So it looks like we’ll also get a glimpse of the ride system when the project becomes operational next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
