Masks no longer required outdoors at WDW

[SwirlTheCitrus]

Going today... This is going to be interesting.

A new thought: this should eliminate the need for "relaxation stations". A lot are in theaters for shows, maybe they will start opening most shows?

Fantastic! The June trip is saved!

I see the pictures of the lanyards - that is a great idea - but the pics don't show where we can get them. Where do I get a mask lanyard?

We got ours at a local CVS. They had plain and some Disney themed ones! They had them on a little display rack right inside the door.

Those who are visiting at this time, I recommend getting a mask lanyard. We have them and they are awesome if you are going to be masking on/off frequently.

“Upon entering and throughout all attractions” would include while waiting in line, correct?

Why aren’t children under 12 required to wear masks? None of them are vaccinated.

In reading the new guidelines, this the first time I noticed your masks had to be double layers--has it been this way all the time? If so, I really missed that one.

we're arriving on June 7th and this is the best news!

the infection rate of children that age is miniscule, as is the severity of symptoms in this age group.

I was thinking..., does the new CDC guidance change nearby non-Disney hotel/restaurant mask policies? I know that Florida had opened up previously, but I’m not sure what hotels/ restaurants were actually doing. Seems that more lenient policies in nearby hotels/restaurants could impact business at Disney Springs, which might put pressure on Disney to take the next step of allowing people maskless indoors (other than in attractions/shows).

They just mean the material should be double layered which almost all paper and clothes masks are. They don’t mean 2 masks.

Now let's open the shows, increase capacity, start fireworks, bring back all employees, and get this baby off the ground!!!

I think you meant children under 2, right?

 

[BarbLynnM]

I made my own masks, so I guess that means buying some new ones.

This is the right thing to do. It’s time. I went last august and the masks were brutal. Going again this august and hoping that the restrictions are lifted completely by then.

Dollywood, NO mask

FOLLOWING UPDATED GUIDANCE FROM THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC), FULLY VACCINATED GUESTS CAN NOW VISIT DOLLYWOOD WITHOUT WEARING A MASK OR PHYSICALLY DISTANCING

I’m going to AK today. Made a reservation last night, that was the only park I could find available for AP. My son most likely will go live on his IG. As I’m sure many other folks will too.

This is so dumb. If you can walk around without a mask then you can stand in an outdoor line 3 feet apart without one too.

Maybe because very few people stuck to 6 feet. It’s been months since people in line noticed the tape. On Tuesday I had an ecv almost hit my legs in line for Rise of the Resistance.

Always been double layer

Restaurants outside of the Disney bubble are 100% capacity as long as tables are 6 feet apart. (Doesn’t mean chairs are 6 feet apart. From there, owners may use stricture rules themselves.

Hair salons, restaurants, stores, pharmacies outside of the Disney bubble don’t require patrons to wear masks. But workers are supposed to.

My DIL works at Disney Springs. She’s still required to wear a mask.

Publix is no longer requiring masks for vaccinated customers or employees.

On the one hand, EXCELLENT news and a big step back towards normality. On the other hand I'm a bit bummed that we just returned from WDW and just missed this relaxation of the rules!

SAME. We were there last week with 3 HOT days & it was miserable.

But you know we still somehow will end up being 'Mom, keeper of soggy masks' anyway Someone will say the lanyard itches their neck or doesn't look good with their shirt...
