Looking forward to the daily crash reports here. :thumbsup:

Rode the Skyliner for the first time tonight from International Gateway to Riviera and back. First time on the system for me. Cabins were a surprising size physically being in them. The ride was very smooth, didn’t have any stops and the breeze inside the cabin was beautiful (although it was fairly cool tonight, around 80 degrees).

Overall, it was very pleasant, but I’ve yet to do the full trip from Epcot to DHS (or even to CBR). This will be a big perk for all hotels attached imo, as transport to Epcot and DHS will be far faster now. Especially from Riviera.

I’m glad you made it back.

The gondolas do come into the station hot (and leave just as hot). Can totally See how that accident happened, but WOW would that be some scary crap if another gondola came bursting through the window of the one I was in.

I love how 80 is “fairly cool”

At no humidity and breezy, high 70’s, low 80’s can actually be comfortable!

Comfortable? Yes. Cool? No.

Sorry. I just miss seasons.

Disney finally released a statement today. Since they prominently mentioned new training....and slowing up the system for those having problems boarding, I'm guessing the accident may have involved loading an ECV , wheelchair, or something similar, with the system moving faster at that load time than it will now. .

You don’t like 10.5 months of summer and then a month and a half of Florida being bipolar?

Skyliner wants you to know that it’s completely natural and happens to everyone.

Disney Skyliner Gondola System Has Transported 1 Million Guests

This is not news. But Disney will have a grand opening for a bathroom and their fans love taking pictures in front of walls so I guess this is expected.

News? Maybe but it's a good insight into how many people this is moving.

It opened on 29th September, crashed on the 5th, reopened on the 14th and hit a million guests today.

That's over 45,000 guests a day. That's a lot considering not everybody needs to use it and people being put off after the crash.

Wonder if they double count the guests at CBBR transfer station.

This is just fluff trying to put out positive spin. It’s all frosting no cake.
