Do you know if you can take a manual wheelchair in the regular sky liner line. a friend has oftened to lone me a wheelchair for my next visit I normally use it more as a walker then to sit in will they let me take the normal ( none stopping) sky liner with it. the line at the evening is so long for the stepped one I like to avoid that if at all.

sorry for all the rambbling
 
I don't understand the question. There is no difference in the actual skyliner route for the lines. It's only the load/unload stations that have the separate line for those that need it.
 
I think the op is asking if she was to go in the handicap queue where you have to wait for them to pull a gondola off to the side for loading (like with ecvs)
 
Here's what I think OP is asking:
Can they take a wheelchair through the regular queue since they are mostly using it as a walker and don't need the gondola stopped in order to load. They say the regular queue moves faster than the wheelchair/ECV queue in the evening.

@gap2368, you can always ask a cast member if you can use the regular queue. Be sure to let them know if you are planning to fold up the wheelchair before boarding the gondola.
 
I would keep your eyes on the gondola. When I have been there the line that stops (I use a scooter) has been way shorter than the other line. By a lot!

This is what I am asking. I would rather use the regular line
 
(note: My adult son can walk, but has Down Syndrome and Autism, etc.). I prefer the regular Skyliner line too. I would push my son until we were a few groups away from boarding, and he would stand and I would slightly fold up his chair to make it less wide. This made it easier to get onto the gondola at a normal pace. It was a little tricky guiding him on while I managed the chair, but doable. (He was in a Convaid chair not a typical manual wheelchair).

Thank you for your replay
