Construction Update! Work on the Walkway From Disney’s Grand Floridian to the Magic Kingdom Has Started Again!

It’s been a while since we’ve seen construction progress at Disney World since all projects were put on pause shortly after the shutdown.

Construction Update! Work on the Walkway From Disney’s Grand Floridian to the Magic Kingdom Has Started Again!

Cinderella Castle Construction Before the Closure

But today, we’ve seen a lot of action happening at the resort today as some hotels are preparing to reopen on June 22nd along with the theme parks on July 11th and July 15th. The Disney’s Skyliner gondolas are back out, not to mention the walls around Homecomin’s new outdoor Shine bar have come down!

And thanks to DFB Reader@bioreconstructwe got to see Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom was receiving her royal beauty treatment again! Now, our eyes-in-the-sky reader has just captured a few images of the movable bridge that is expected to join Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort to Magic Kingdom!

Polynesian Resort guests should be able to access and use this bridge as well.

Do keep in mind, Disney has not commented on this bridge, so things are still a bit up in the air in terms of details. But we’re pretty excited by the potential that Magic Kingdom could be that much more accessible from these two resorts.

Are you excited to see construction has resumed at Disney World? Let us know which project you’re hoping will be completed by the time you visit in the comments below!

PHOTOS! Here’s a Construction Update On the NEW Patio Shine Bar Coming to Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ in Disney Springs!

A few weeks ago, we discovered construction walls alongside Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ in Disney Springs complete with concept art for an upcoming new spot: Shine Bar & Social.

And though Homecomin’ won’t reopen to guests until this coming Wednesday, June 17th, today we got a glimpse at the spot’s new patio bar, as those construction walls have been removed!

Here’s a peek…

In the meantime… keep on SHININ’!

Guess What Disney World Transportation Is BACK in the Sky Today!

At the start of the parks’ temporary closure, all of Disney’s Skyliner gondolas were put away for safekeeping.

Guess What Disney World Transportation Is BACK in the Sky Today!

Disney World

And while we just saw the carousel at Disney Springs’ marketplace spinning along with Cinderella Castle receiving her royal makeover, you won’t believe what else we just saw!

Disney’s Skyliner gondolas have returned to their tracks and they’re on the move once more! Man, we’ve really missed seeing these guys! The wires looked so naked without them!

Guess What Disney World Transportation Is BACK in the Sky Today!

Disney’s Skyliner

Keep in mind, Disney World hasn’t indicated whether or not Disney’s Skyliner will resume when some of the hotels begin to reopen on June 22nd or when the theme parks reopen July 11th and July 15th.

Guess What Disney World Transportation Is BACK in the Sky Today!

Disney’s Skyliner

So far we only know details about a few modes of transportation that will be back on track soon including Disney’s Magical Express airport shuttle as well as the buses that transport guests back and forth from the theme parks and resort hotels. Disney has also shared the monorail and ferry boats will be operating, but service will be limited due to reduced capacity.

Disney’s Skyliner

Disney has also confirmed Minnie Vans won’t be operating, so the only thing missing is what’s going to happen with Disney’s Skyliner? We’re eager to hear more information and we’re taking the gondolas being out as a GOOD sign we might find out something soon!

Have you had the chance to ride on Disney’s Skyliner? Let us know if you have in the comments below!
