Health & Safety Practices
Health and Safety Guidelines have changed quite a bit since the reopening of the Disney Parks. Initially masks were required at all locations. This later changed for only indoor locations, and then simply on Disney transportation.
Currently, masks are required in a few key areas at Disney World. First, you are required to wear them at any indoor location. This includes shops and restaurants.
Second, you must also put one on before entering the official queue of an attraction and while on that attraction if any part of that queue or attraction is indoors. In Central Florida there is a shortage of COVID-19 testing locations. Now, Walt Disney World is partnering to help meet this need.
