food IS a theme park
The Disney Skyliner is one of the newest and most convenient transportation options in Disney World.
Disney Skyliner
You get to board a gondola and travel through the sky — so it’s basically a ride outside of the parks! The Skyliner connects a few Disney World Resort hotels with two Disney Parks, but this transportation option will be unavailable for a few days. Find out if you’ll be affected on your next Disney World trip.
There are quite a few different forms of transportation you can use to get around Disney World including Disney buses, boats, the monorail, and one of Disney’s latest forms of transportation — the Skyliner.
Time for a Trip on the Skyliner?
Recently, the Skyliner’s operating hours were adjusted for one day, and now we’ve got some news about an upcoming Skyliner CLOSURE that you need to know about.
Update: The Skyliner has reopened as of Wednesday evening.Â
There are quite a few ways to get around Walt Disney World. One of the newest forms of transportation is Disney’s Skyliner.

But, if you were planning to take the Skyliner to EPCOT today, you might not be able to do so.
Hop aboard Disney’s Skyliner and you can easily make your way to EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and several of Disney’s hotels, including Disney’s Pop Century Resort and more!

We’ve been exploring the Disney World theme parks A LOT now that all four have reopened!
EPCOT
And while we all know park hopping is temporarily unavailable during the initial phase of Disney World’s reopening, we also know a lot of you folks back home are curious if guests can resort hop at Disney World right now. And we’re not gonna lie — it’s a little confusing right now.
When select Disney World resort hotels reopened last week, we knew transportation would be limited, but we were still holding out hope we might get to ride the monorail or go for a gondola ride on Disney’s Skyliner!
Grand Floridian Monorail Station
Well, that didn’t exactly happen…BUT today we finally know exactly WHEN we can expect Disney World’s many modes of transportation to be operating again!
As of today, select Disney World Resort hotels have now reopened!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
And prior to the reopening, Disney released lots of details regarding changes guests could expect to see — including the suspension of some resort activities, enhanced cleaning protocol, and the requirement that all guests have a hotel (or both hotel and dining) reservations to enter.
Now that we’ve used Disney World’s new Mobile Dine Check-In and experienced our first character meal (all while navigating Disney’s new Park Pass Reservation System which launched today) we’ve had a little time to go diggin’ around for more details regarding Disney World’s phased reopening!

We’ve just learned that unlike Disney World theme park guests, resorts guests will not be required to undergo mandatory temperature screenings for the time being.
