Aerial Tramway 🚡
🚡 (U+1F6A1) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Aerial Tramway is part of the Symbols family (block: Transport and Map Symbols). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: AERIAL TRAMWAY depicts the official symbol for a cable car ride. Use it in messaging or interfaces to indicate travel plans, transit options, or a scenic ride in itineraries. It can appear in maps or travel apps to mark routes that involve an aerial tramway, or in chat to suggest an adventure or commute choice. Because appearance varies across platforms and fonts, rely on surrounding text to clarify the meaning and reduce ambiguity. Use emojis thoughtfully in UI and text to keep intent clear, and provide a plain fallback if needed. If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome or text‑style version may be shown. For accessibility, ensure nearby text conveys the intended meaning and includes helpful context for screen readers.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F6A1 in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.

Compatibility & troubleshooting

Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
