Yeah, there is no way I'm going to be getting in that Gondola. The rest of my family will give it a go though.

I hope for all of our sakes the Skyliner is better up kept in 30-40 years than the monorail

I don't know. I'm not even sure that those Gondola's will be a viable transportation alternative in 40 years. I just don't imagine they'll last that long.

Seriously, who in the hell made that call ? Its not as if they have a problem with other brands popping up everywhere in the parks these days !

There is no credible evidence that Siemens ever made such an offer.

 

[SmithSmith]

Who cares if Siemens offered to sponsor a monorail. The total revenue for Disney Parks and Resorts for 2017 was $18.5 Billion, 2016 was $17 Billion. Disney can afford new monorails on their own. Nevermind the fact they should’ve been planning for this expense for over a decade!

Maybe they find it better to replace them with....... cable cars..... or..... maybe the nautilus subs will run people back and forth in the lagoon...... that would be cool.

Lol submarines

Well if the idea was to replace it with a gondola then they screwed up by building it nowhere near the Magic Kingdom.

The gondolas are not supposed to help service the magic kingdom area they are for DHS and Epcot which will be getting much busier in the coming years.

Disney is likely waiting until they have to do something about the monorails. They just paid a boat load to automate them and likely don’t want to turn around and buy all new monorails already.

I'm dying to find out what they have in plan for the AKL to AK transport, so who knows what the new plan for the monorail loop will be....

They can build another one you know....or something else....

They may be getting close to the "have to do something" point... I bet they have several plans...

That was meant to be a joke. I’m aware the gondolas are for EPCOT and Hollywood Studios.

Do you know something the rest of us don’t?

 

[rteetz]

Yes they are getting close.

 

[SmithSmith]

Yes they are getting close.

I think we’re past the “having to do something” point.

 

[beer dave]

I know nothing... just have learned there's always something coming....

Obviously you’re not that familiar with Disney

Honestly I’m not sure we are past that point yet.

Glad you had a good trip. Glad you are back. things were getting slow. I have about 10 days.... but I don't have to run... thank goodness.

Lol What else has to happen for you to get to that point?

The running wasn’t as bad as waking up at 2:30 every morning.

For? training? I have no idea.... I just build stuff.
