In 2019 Disney world introduced a new mode of transportation for guests named the Disney Skyliner. This Gondola style mode of transportation connects guests to select Disney Resorts and 2 Disney parks.

Quick Access To Two Disney Parks
Disney Skyliner connects 4 Disney Resorts to two Disney parks – EPCOT & Hollywood Studios. Depending on your starting location, the ride to either connecting park is approximately 3-10 minutes away. This is a much quicker transporatation option than busses for a few reasons. One being that the Disney Skyliner runs continuously, simply hop on and be on your way. Where as busses include waiting for the bus, boarding all guests on or off the bus and driving through traffic. None of which Disney Skyliner has to worry about.
The Views
Guests can fly above Disney World Resort with birds eye views below. Get never before seen views of Epcot, Hollywood Studios and more from above. Depending on your location, the Disney Skyliner soars 15-60 feet above the ground.
Stop At International Gateway
The ride to EPCOT drops guests off at the International Gateway. This is perfect for guests wanting to experience all that Disney’s Boardwalk has to offer, including dining, shopping and entertainment. Disney’s Boardwalk is just a short walk from the International Gateway. Start your morning with Bon Voyage Breakfast at Trattoria al Forno. Browse art at the Wyland Galleries and grab a treat from the BoardWalk Bakery. Have a relaxing afternoon and consider Surrey Bike Rentals for a unique way to experience the Boardwalk.
