Luckily, one of the entry stations to the Disney Skyliner is located right next to the resort. My guess is that no matter where you stay at Pop Century, you have less than a 5-minute walk to the boarding area! Here is the view from your cabin as you soar past Pop Century!
Often Skyliner will start running 30-60 minutes prior to park opening. Ask at your hotel what time it will start running. Don't forget to allow time to board Skyliner during rush hour, wait times can be 15-20 minutes during this period. Yes, another reason to get an early start on your day at Walt Disney World!
Are there long lines to board Skyliner? During the morning and evening rush lines can be as long as 15 to 20 minutes at the Caribbean Beach station. Transportation at Walt Disney World whether you're waiting for a bus, monorail, boat or gondola, will usually be about 20 minutes when the parks are opening and closing.
Does the Skyliner close if it rains? During storms or high winds, or if lightning has been detected nearby, the Disney Skyliner does close. When that happens, bus transportation will be provided.
The “central hub” and transfer spot is the station at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. The Caribbean Beach Resort station is considered an “end of the line” station, meaning you'll need to get off here and then transfer to the routes that'll take you to the other destinations.
There are no theme parks which can be reached from the Pop Century Resort on foot. You can walk to the ART OF ANIMATION Resort, approximately .3 miles away, via paved, lighted walkway. There are no theme parks or other resorts which can be reached from the PORT ORLEANS RESORTS on foot.
And as a general rule, you can not walk from All Star Movies to Pop Century. And although it is only about a 3-4 mile difference between the two resorts the main reason is there is not an official walking path.
Anyone can ride the Skyliner; you don't have to be staying at a Disney Resort. Probably the easiest way to catch a ride on the Skyliner (if you aren't staying at a resort with a station or if you are staying offsite) is to board at either Hollywood Studios or Epcot.
The Disney Skyliner station at EPCOT is located at the International Gateway entrance, which is located at the back of the theme park in World Showcase. Unfortunately, there's no way to walk between these two stations without walking through EPCOT.
While the Skyliner is generally a very reliable system, there are a few times it will be closed. First, weather may impact operations of the gondola system. High winds and rain will temporarily suspend travel. And, of course, there have been a few “crashes” of gondola cars at the stations.
Thanks for asking your question to planDisney! As you soar to your magical adventures on the Disney Skyliner, you are welcome to take your jet fuel (i.e. coffee!) along for the ride! There is a restriction on bringing alcoholic beverages on the Disney Skyliner, but your boost of morning Java will be just fine!
