The tallest towers stands at 53 meters from the ground.The gondola lift spans across 22 pylons (intermittent supporting tower).The monocable gondola lift steel cable is 60mm in diameter and is one of the strongest monocable gondola installation in the world.There is 99 standard gondola that can carry maximum 10 passenger per cabin, and glass floor gondola that can carry maximum 6 passenger per cabin.It takes 10 minutes to travel 2.8 km journey (climb 620 meters) between the two terminal station at Awana Central and SkyAvenue.The Awana Skyway gondola lift can handle 3,000 passangers one way per hour.The Awana Skyway gondola lift travels at top speed of 6 meters per seconds ascending and descending the Genting Highlands.The speed of the gondola is usually slow enough for passenger to walk in and out of the gondola before the door automatically closed and takes off. Hence passenger will notice the change in speed during the ride in a gondola lift. How it works : The gondola grip is detached from the steel cable system into the intermittent rails at the terminal station running at lower speeds allowing loading and unloading of passengers, then at the end of the rail it is grip back to the steel cable system and continues its journey along the cable till it reach another station. This allows a continuous running cable car system at higher moving rate without intermittent stopping to load and unload passenger. The benefit of such system is allowing detachable grip where the gondola can easily and seamless transfer between different terminal station along a longer journey.

Type : Gondola Lift, a type of continuous cable car system where a loop of steel cable strung between two stations with intermidiate supporting towers, driven by a huge bullwheel connected to a motor at the terminal. The Awana Skyway is a gondola lift cable car that can takes passenger from Awana Central to SkyAvenue in 10 mins.
