Can you ride the Disney Skyliner without getting off?

The Riviera station is the only station that you do not have to get off at, unless it's your intended stop. Caribbean Beach Resort guests can also hop on at the Riviera Resort station if they're closer to it (for example, staying at a room in Aruba) and would like to go directly to EPCOT.

It gets HOT in Florida. Okay, that might not be a secret, but it certainly may be a problem for Skyliner rides during the summer. The gondolas don't have any sort of air conditioning, but they are vented to allow air to flow through as you're moving. In our experience, it's not a huge problem — except if you get stuck.
