    Great starting idea but I would add more context like maybe adding loot on the island.

    For example: Prefab house on the island that has minimal loot in a chest or in item frames.

    I will agree that the sky does need more attention than the land below it does.

    There could be many diferent types of islands, some would have minerals, some could have broken nether portals, some would have mob spawners and chests, there could even be a new boss that could only spawn after defeating the ender dragon (or maybe some island only spawn after defeating the ender dragon), that way it gives more reason to play and explore after finishing the game

    A floating biome over the sea (and/or land?).

    Can be themed after any type of existing biome (random?) or a new one.

    Has mountains, forests, caves, lakes, waterfalls that go all the way down.

    Optional ideas for the sky biome:
    • Home of the phantoms (native mob)
      + Phantom castle
      + Phantoms don't die at day but flee towards sky biome
    • Ruins
    • Broken ancient airships
      + Crashed airships on surface (similar to sunken water ships but on land. With deflated balloon)
    • Only visible at night or at close range

    I recommend to change the title to "Sky Biome". It sounds bigger and grander.

    I would like the fact that you can only go there if you have Elytra because it is over the construcction limit. It would be a place where you can only go if you have defeated the ender dragon. More ideas:

    New mobs such as angels. (new civilization with huge buildings)

    New weapons such as wizard staffs or some type of magic weapon.

    New flying vehicles like ships.

    the sky biome should have giants, like in the story jack and the bean's stalk. Giants will reside in castles along with phantoms and a magic seed for a bean's stalk that will grow so tall reaching to a sky biome

    I like the idea of ​​a sky biome, Minecraft has already worked on renovating the caves and modifying the surface of the overworld but the sky is something that hasn't been tried yet.  
The idea of ​​​​expanding the game upwards and Promoting the player to go up to the sky seems like an interesting idea to add content vertically.
    It also seems like a friendlier idea to approach a new place that is more visible to the player, a biome that makes you curious to go up. Although the distance upwards is very great.
    The idea is already clear, but what would this place be like? And what would be there?
    I think that to maintain coherence it should be a very light biome.
    Find new blocks such as cloud blocks and mechanics in them, such as when you step on them they fall apart, also that they can contain water and generate rain under them,
    Without a doubt, with this many more ideas and mechanics can be implemented.
    but I think the most important thing and following the initial idea is to maintain the curiosity factor,
    adding some variants that make each sky biome different from the other and thus maintaining the desire in the player climb to the next one they find. The sky is the limit.
