The cables for the brand new Skyliner have now been fully installed at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
The Skyliner, which is set to open in Fall 2019, will carry guests via gondolas between Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios and Epcot parks, as well as a number of the surrounding resorts.
The installation of these cables marks the latest development in the construction of Disney’s newest mode of transport, so make sure to keep your eyes peeled for more updates soon.
Are you excited for the opening of the Skyliner next year? What’s your favorite way to travel in Walt Disney World?

I still find it bizarre how it is still a year out from this point.
Anyone know why there’s such a time gap between this stage of construction and the stated opening date? I understand thorough testing, but the gap seems unusually long.
Maybe the delay is with manufacturing of the carriers?
Ski areas install larger, longer gondola and detachable chairlift systems on much more rugged terrain during their six month off seasons every year. I’m still at a loss how Disney can make this a two year process.
