And before we leave the Swan, let’s just relax with this view for a moment… Pretty Swan Decor International Gateway and Walt Disney World Resort Policies On the path toward the International Gateway, this small brown building will become a ticket booth in the near future. It’s expected to be in place while construction winds down on the International Gateway Skyliner Station. Currently, Skyliner construction at IG has temporarily relocated the entrance and security while the new entrance from Skyliner is completed. Future Ticket Area near International Gateway Also in this area is a map with posted smoking areas. Recall that all smoking is banned from inside the parks, so designated smoking areas are outside of park entrances. Epcot, therefore, has two designated smoking areas. Epcot Smoking locations Epcot Smoking Area outside International Gateway And near the Friendship Boat Dock, a sign with information to “Know Before You Go”. Info includes stroller sizes, smoking policies, and more. Know Before You Go Signage near Friendship Boat Dock That’s that, Disney food friends!
