Disney Skyliner just celebrated its 5th anniversary! This free and easy way of traveling around Walt Disney World has quickly become a favorite of mine and so many other guests who visit.
Need tips for how to navigate the system? Don’t worry, I’ve got you. Here are 5 ways you can get the most out of Disney Skyliner during your next Disney Resort hotel stay. I have a feeling it may soon become your favorite, too (if it’s not already).
1. Enjoy a day of free activities at Disney Skyliner station stops as a Disney Resort hotel guest.
Even though it’s not an official attraction, the Skyliner is one of my favorite Disney rides … and you don’t even need a park ticket to try it! Known for its colorful cabins featuring favorite characters and relaxing vibes, this unique gondola system travels to four Resort hotels perfect for nearly every family size and budget.
2. Ride Disney Skyliner during fireworks.
The Disney Skyliner makes park hopping between Disney’s Hollywood Studios and EPCOT fun and easy. If you’re traveling between the parks at night and time your trip just right, you can also catch an incredible bird’s-eye view of some of our nighttime spectaculars.
3. Take ALL the family photos.
#DisneySkylinerHair. Ever heard of it? You will once you take flight, and you’ll want your camera ready to capture the moment when the wind blows through your hair.
In addition to in-flight photos, you can also take family photos at iconic locations across Walt Disney World at every station stop. Here are some of our favorites:
- Have a little one? We recommend taking a pic in front of their favorite, larger-than-life character at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort. What’s better? Traveling aboard Disney Skyliner with small kids is a breeze since you don’t have to fold up your single-sized stroller!
- With the Halloween season in full swing, take Disney Skyliner right to Disney’s Hollywood Studios for a frightfully fun family photo in front of The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror!
- If you’re looking for an elegant backdrop to take your holiday family photos, the view of Crescent Lake from the sands of Disney’s Beach Club Resort is just what you need.
4. Create your own Disney Skyliner food crawl.
The restaurants at Disney Skyliner Resort hotels are top tier. From breakfast with your favorite Disney pals at Topolino’s Terrace, to dinner under the sea at Sebastian’s Bistro, you really can’t go wrong. Start the day on an empty stomach, enjoy a tasty treat at each Disney Skyliner stop and return back to your Resort hotel full of some of the best Disney Eats across Disney World.
5. Chat with our cast!
Need more recommendations? Our Disney Skyliner cast are ready to help. While we don’t talk about Bruno, if he’s your favorite Disney character, they can try to make some magic and help you ride in an Encanto-themed cabin.
The list could go on and on. With so many ways to enjoy Disney Skyliner, you can see why millions of guests have climbed aboard to take flight and travel in style. It’s one of the most popular experiences at Walt Disney World!
Happy 5th anniversary, Disney Skyliner. We can’t wait to celebrate many more years in flight!
