Hey everyone, just wanted to share some info my wife got this weekend (and sorry if this is the wrong forum or if this has been posted already).
She was on the phone a few times adjusting our vacation plans for next summer and when they asked why we chose Caribbean Beach (they seem to ask what about the resort interested you) she told them we were sort of banking on the fact that the skyliner would be ready by August and the cast member on the phone told her they thought it would definitely be ready by then and most likely much earlier. They told her that they get updates every week about resort construction so they can alert potential visitors if they can expect any at the resort they are looking to stay at. They then told her the update they got this week said the construction at CBR was set to be competed by Jan 30th, 2019, so guests would not have construction notices for stays after those dates. Now I know this does not mean the entire system will be finished being constructed, or there wont be some more work such as painting and obviously test runs of the gondolas, but from what they said (and our estimations as well) it would seem that the skyliner could be ready for guests sometime in March/April (and definitely ready by August for our trip, yay!).
I don't know about everyone else but this is exciting news for our family but also makes our decision of which resort to stay at a little harder than before.
