GENERAL SKYLINER STATION INFORMATION:
We rode several times in our trip.
Each time, we started at Hollywood Studio and rode to the Caribbean Beach station. From there, guests can transfer to another Skyliner. The only station we did not go to at all was Art of Animation/ Pop Century (one station serves both).
All stations have restrooms available, except Art of Animation, which I’ve read will be getting one.
Caribbean Beach and Riviera have restrooms at the station. Hollywood Studio is outside of the station, toward the first set of bus stops on your left.
We traveled through the Riviera Station, but only traveled thru it to get to Epcot. We didn’t get on or off there.
These images are all from the Hollywood Studio station.
Approaching the station from the bus area.
Mobility Aids (including special needs strollers) need to fit size requirements the same as for buses. One scooter per gondola; probably for weight, balance and space reasons.
We did see people boarding with one scooter or wheelchair and a stroller.
Each station has a handicapped loading area where the gondolas come to a complete stop for loading/unloading. At all the stations EXCEPT Riviera, gondolas get pulled off and onto the line for loading in that area. Riviera, it’s just a stop, which means the whole line needs to stop momentarily.
Caribbean Beach is a hub, where transfers to all the different lines can be made.
Going to Epcot involves getting on the Riviera Skyliner and going thru that station without getting off at the stop.
This is the view of gondolas leaving the Hollywood Studio station (viewed from walkway from bus area)
