Skyliner - Whats our chances?

Hopefully2014 · 21 Oct 18, 12:40 PM

Booked Caribbean beach resort for 7 nights from 8 july next year. One of the reasons for choosing CBR was the possibility of the Skyliner being open by then? Whats peoples thoughts on the likelyhood of it being open by then?

Its anyone's guess... 'Summer' is the estimated window, but that could mean anything up to mid sept I suppose. I'm hoping both Mickey train and the Gondola transport is up and running by end July for when we leave.

I've heard that they aren't due to open it until late August/Early September. Gives them a month or so to test run it in quieter weeks before run up to Star Wars. I would love for it to be open by our trip next year, so fingers crossed!

There�s been speculation that it *might* open in Summer 2019 based on the progress made so far. We�re staying at CBR in August, so I�m hoping it will be up and running by then. It wouldn�t surprise me if it turns out to have an Autumn opening date though, just in time for the extra hordes heading to Hollywood Studios for Star Wars Land!

We�re in CBR next July, I�ve heard about the gondola but please can I ask what is the Mickey train?

Sorry, I may have given you the wrong idea...its a ride, not an actual train that travels round (incase you thought that

). Hollywood Studios, Mickey and Minnies Runaway Railroad... based on the style of the Mickey Shorts episodes that are shown on the resort tv's. Love 'em! Due out sometime in 2019...May/June/July/Aug/Sept...

We�re at Pop in March. In my dreams they will decide it�s their number one priority... 😁

Construction was at a fast and advanced stage when we where there late August , as its practical buildings and machinery I would expect a mid summer opening myself.🙏
