Walt Disney World has updated its face mask policy, affecting guests dining at the resort.
Brooke Geiger McDonald reports that guests are now required to wear face coverings at their table, and may only be taken off “while actively eating and drinking.” The coverings must be worn at all other times, including standing, waiting and sitting in dining locations. This is a change from the previous policy, which allowed guests to remove their masks once seated at their table.
Since July, guests have only been permitted to remove their coverings when eating or drinking while stationary. Last month, Disney also revealed that guests will have to remove their coverings while riding water slides or in the water when Disney’s Blizzard Beach reopens on March 7th, but advises that guests should still “maintain appropriate physical distancing.”
