The Disney World Skyliner is often a dependable way to get around the park, but it isn’t without its hiccups. After a day at the park, relaxing on your ride home is a dream, but here are four times you might want to consider skipping the Skyliner for a quieter return home.
1. **When It's Too Crowded**
During peak times like early morning at Caribbean Beach or post-EPCOT fireworks, the Skyliner runs full with multiple families. This can be overwhelming if you value personal space. In these instances, opting for alternative transportation means avoiding crowded cabins.
2. **When It’s Raining or Storming**
The Skyliner will halt in severe weather conditions, making other travel options more reliable during storms. Even if just raining, those uneasy with heights might prefer not chancing a slightly wobbly ride.
3. **When You're Stranded**
The Skyliner hours don't always align with park events, sometimes leaving you stuck if you're out late. Bus transportation from the park might be a faster way home than getting off at midway points only to switch to different transport.
4. **When People Behave…Loudly**
For some, being in a small space with strangers who may be overly chatty or letting kids run wild isn't fun. When the energy levels go up, quiet transportation alternatives will offer a more relaxing journey.
While the Skyliner is a fantastic option for park-to-park travel and resort access, choosing walking, boats, or a Minnie Van could be the calm ride you're looking for when things get chaotic. Disney World offers many transport options, and you can choose the best fit for you.
