The past few months have seen some HUGE changes at Disney World.
Cast Members in Fantasyland
As more people become vaccinated, we’ve seen many health and safety guidelines change at the parks: temperature checks have been suspended, masks became optional for guests who are fully vaccinated in most situations, park capacity is going up, and fireworks are scheduled to return soon!
Now, Disney announced another BIG change, and this one means you’ll soon see a lot more smiling faces on Cast Members at Disney World. Face coverings are now optional for Cast Members who are fully vaccinated while they are working outdoors. In fact, we ran into one such smiling Cast Member this morning at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Meet David!
According to @wdw.ambassador on Instagram, “It feels great to take this step forward as we continue to make intentional and gradual changes to our health and safety protocols.”
