Read that report and tell me there isn't going to be some serious shirt when this breaks down in the peak of Florida heat.

The way that some are completely unwilling to consider any possible cause for concern of any kind, it seems kind of weird. Like maybe Disney has people on here trying to sway opinion.

If the gondolas get stuck mid-day during heat, could they just shoot water up to hose them off? Would that dissipate the deadly heat?

The wife and I both use ecv scooters. Will two of those fit on one gondola?

Anyone know if it is running today?

The more that people insist there is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, causes me to be more concerned.

Reading thru these threads about the gondolas and heat, it is fairly amazing how many people lack understanding of the difficulties that some face related to heat.

Given the accident, it is fair to say we can talk again about "What ifs"

60 hours and no posts, I guess everything has been discussed, not just the what ifs

Sure we have beat the downside to death, but haven't we also beat the upside to death. Maybe just close down the forum, nothing left to beat.

Air conditioning is pretty much a world wide technology.

What part of the reservation process was Gondola offered as one of two transportation options? And what was the other option.

I love the idea of Gondolas connecting the whole Disney World resort.

If they ever shut down monorail, they may as well close the doors to the whole place.

5-15 minutes in the heat could be no big deal, but consider that the gondolas will be under the hot sun for hours. They may have reflective coating, but they are still metal, and over the course of hours, metal absorbs heat. Most young people can deal with a little heat without much consequence...

The "around the clock" comment was probably a reactionary response to the suits worry that people think they are taking too long to get the thing up and running.

Advertising

I am sure many more will get decals to advertise new movies and whatnot.

Yeah I guess that could mean that it may open in August after months of testing with cast members being the first to ride...

What are we thinking now is the estimate on getting the thing open and running? That article a couple days ago in the Sentinel said cast member will start testing it in August and that testing will run for months. Doesn't sound like it will be running for the opening of Star Wars area. :(
