I'm visiting Gibraltar this weekend - any truth that the cable car is
closed?

TIA Dave

Jim will respond in due course. What tends to happen from time to time is
that the Cable Car, like any piece of machinery, needs servicing. Round
about this time of year, when demand is at its lowest, is when it gets shut
down for a day or two here or there to permit inspections / repairs etc to
be carried out. Of course that is not to say there is NO demand on those
days, but the off-season tourist could by pure coincidence have picked on
the day in question to go for a ride.

Hi Ken - Thanks for your reply - Yes I understand what you're saying. If the
cable car is not working this weekend it's not a major problem . (There's
probably more important things in life to worry about than that!). I'm
fortunate enough to have another trip scheduled for March; and if I don't
make it this time, then maybe the next - Subject of course to agreement with
the Big Man in the Sky.
Regards - Dave

Ah one thing to know is that it does not operate on Sunday.

I forgot to look, but will check tomorrow.
