So, is the Disney Skyliner the dreamy, breeze-through-the-sky transportation Disney moms pin to their trip boards… or is it an actual anxiety-inducing gondola of doom? (Spoiler: For me, it was both.)
In this live-from-the-trip episode, I’m giving you my unfiltered, real-time reaction to riding the Disney Skyliner while staying at the Disney World Riviera Resort. If you’ve been eyeing the Disney Skyliner resorts thinking “oooh, that looks magical,” let me be your reality check (with love, of course).
We’re talking panic attacks, stroller logistics, ride pauses that feel like a lifetime, and whether I’d ever stay at the Disney World Riviera Resort again.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why my ride on the Disney Skyliner turned into a panic attack in the sky - and what triggered it.
- What it’s really like to stay at the Disney World Riviera Resort when you’re scared of heights.
- How stroller logistics work on the Disney Skyliner (and which strollers you'll need to fold).
- Why I still kinda-sorta love the Disney World Riviera Resort… despite the mental breakdown.
- What I’d do differently next time - and what transportation option I’m fully committed to now.
If you’re planning to stay at one of the Disney Skyliner resorts, this is the episode you want to listen to before hitting “book now.”
So tell me… are you a Disney Skyliner lover or “nope, not for me” kinda mom? Let me know your thoughts over on IG: @somewhereworthwhile.
