That is true however the delay doesn’t appear to be a cabin production delay like originally rumored. There could be another component like you said but the cabin itself doesn’t appear to be delayed.

Only if gondola delivery is part of the critical path.

I really can't wait until this is open so that we have to find something new to argue about on this board for what will inevitably become over 1000 pages. Also, if anyone on here truly had all the plans in front of them, there would be no need to speculate or argue at all.
And, yes, I know that no one is forcing me to read this thread, however I truly do appreciate the actual updates and information that is sometimes provided in here.

Just check them all and see if any are labeled with some ski resort's logo...

They all have a label that says, "Mineral King". Employees are working overtime to scrub these labels off the gondolas.

The fabulous magical bus system will still be available.
Maybe with slightly less frequency, but there's been no indication that bus service between areas connecting to the skyliner will be discounted.
On that note can you get a bus from:
GF/Poly/Contemporary to the TTC & Epcot despite them being connected via the monorail?

Bus service on those routes is still planned to be eliminated.
They do not run buses on routes serviced by the monorails.

Nope you cannot, unless the monorail is down. From the Poly it would be a walk to the TTC without monorail.

Much greater odds of that than getting a bus solo. Which has happened a couple of times for me.

Yes we do. The Doppelmayr Garaventa Group hired Rockwell Automation as a subcontractor on the Disney Skyliner:

As an engineer, Everytime I see this video it brings me joy.
Watch out for those differential girdle springs...they can be tricky..

You will still have options but they may take longer and not be direct routes. You could also choose different hotels.

On a more serious note, has there been any more rumblings on a potential opening for this instead of fall? Seems there's been a number of changes to this year's schedule and curious if they'll get this open for summer (June 30 maybe). Know there's a difference between when its ready and when Disney is ready, but seems with the testing, evac testing and construction they are in a good spot. Would think they'd want it running smoothly well before SW but also to get some pub out of it before SW takes over in august.

There were a group of permits filed today for roofing work on the group of buildings at CBR that the Skyliner passes over. Not sure if there is a connection.
