My $100 bet is still in play - no ones taken me up. $100 says cabin's are air conditioned.
(BTW I looked closer at the main image of the gondolas, it's pretty clear that they are 100% enclosed.)
So they are going to have 10 minute rides in a furnace? Those glassed in boxes will be 130 degrees on an August afternoon.
Oh @skier_pete, must we keep tussling?
I don't want to argue about this. All I'm going to contribute is that gondolas bypass roads, which makes distances traveled shorter. Gondola speeds are on average about 12-14 mph these days, some faster. Unless you have some information the rest of us aren't privy to, there is no way to know the exact duration of these rides or how the cabins will be cooled/ventilated. I prefer to believe that these are an improvement to the property. If you prefer to believe otherwise, please do.
