Gondolas At Walt Disney World?

A delicious rumor has appeared regarding the building of a modern form of Skyway at Walt Disney World.

Documents obtained by the Orlando Sentinel from the Disney-controlled Reedy Creek Improvement District confirm the resort has been planning the project, which has been rumored for months. Reedy Creek notes refer to six stations with three lines linking Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Epcot, Caribbean Beach Resort and the lakeside area between Pop Century and the Art of Animation resorts. Each cab would hold 10 occupants.

Wow. If this is true, then it would make for direct and fun connection between the two parks and those resorts without using the darn buses. Supposedly, these gondolas transport system are more robust and significantly less expensive to build than the monorail.

The only qualm that I have is what would happen in the event of a breakdown. Think of being stuck in one of these things, in 98-degree weather in the middle of summer in Orlando, without air conditioning. How will they hand such a scenario? It was bad enough already when it happened to the monorail, which at least is on a solid track. But dangling many feet of the ground while stuck in one of these?
