You're a month late.
- Really? You knew a month ago Star Wars would open in Sept at WDW? That's impressive.

He means it opens in August.Really? You knew a month ago Star Wars would open in Sept at WDW? That's impressive.
So far, no word on the Skyliner at the Stockholders meeting. However with Star Wars opening Sept 29th at WDW I would assume it has to be running before that.
It is opening August 29Open mouth, insert foot. Aug 29th.

It opens August, not September, we don't know what that means yet for the Gondolas.
I can't imagine the skyliner is not open prior to Galaxy's Edge - I think they need it to transport people - even if only to DHS (maybe EPCOT IG come online later?)
Also think good chance MMRR is open as well as I understood part of building that now was to help with crowds for GE ... plus can't imagine having the grand opening for that in the middle of the first month of GE craziness
If they wait for Riviera to be open they’ll be waiting until December.If they're doing SWGE in phases, I wouldn't be surprised for Skyliner to go in phases, either. I can see CBR <-> DHS open first, along with maybe CBR<->POP/AoA. I think they may hold the Riviera/Epcot line until construction is finished on Riviera, or at least to a stage where it won't endanger/interfere with passing gondolas.

They want the Skyliner running for SWGE so I expect it to be running (all lines) before riviera is open.Disney's official language leaves open possibility of Riviera opening earlier than December 16, but yeah it's still likely going to be a while after SWGE opens.
Official language:
"The official resort opening will be announced at a later date. Currently booking for reservations staring December 16, 2019."
Possible interpretation:
Official opening may still end up being December 16 but it could be sooner. If it couldnt be sooner they'd not differentiate "announced at a later date" and "currently booking ... starting."
Shouldn’t be tough for them to get it open. The system is essentially ready, just minor stuff around it and cast member training. They should be able to get it open for whatever date they want at this point.They want the Skyliner running for SWGE so I expect it to be running (all lines) before riviera is open.
Yep.Shouldn’t be tough for them to get it open. The system is essentially ready, just minor stuff around it and cast member training. They should be able to get it open for whatever date they want at this point.
So why aren't they opening it late spring/early summer?Shouldn’t be tough for them to get it open. The system is essentially ready, just minor stuff around it and cast member training. They should be able to get it open for whatever date they want at this point.
They still might.So why aren't they opening it late spring/early summer?
I am hoping for April 27 but I will be at pop August 28They still might.
April is probably pushing it.I am hoping for April 27 but I will be at pop August 28
Yep but if disney. But if Disney would like to give me a birthday gift..... not holding out to much hopeApril is probably pushing it.
LOL! This is a classic case of you can't please everyone!Even though I am sad that I am missing star wars opening by less than a month (insert crying in ball in the corner here). I am excited because this could very well mean that the gondolas and Mickey and Minnie's Runaway train could both be up and running when we are there at end of July.
