What’s next? A Disneyland gondola?

ANAHEIM, CA — Plans filed with the city of Anaheim, CA, show that Disney plans to extend the Monorail with stops at all 3 Disneyland Resort hotels. This will put Disneyland hotels in direct competition with the three hotels that surround the Seven Seas Lagoon at the Walt Disney World Resort [Ed.: and Spa].

Disney (the company) spokesperson, Jun Disney (no relation) shared more details with us.

Details she shared with us

“It is no secret that the Disneyland Resort experienced lower attendance throughout this past summer. An internal survey showed that guests would rather visit the Walt Disney World Resort [Ed.: and Spa] and stay on the monorail loop, versus coming to the Disneyland Resort and walking to the parks. With the opening of three new monorail stations, we will finally be able to compete directly with the Walt Disney World Resort [Ed.: and Spa].”

Disney (the company) expects to break ground in March of 2020, with opening a year later in March of 2021 [Ed.: and Spa].
