Disney’s New Face Mask Policy

Disney fans can breathe a sigh of relief, Disney has officially lifted face mask requirements for most guests at its theme parks and resorts. Implemented on February 17, this major update marks a return to more normal vacation experiences and is welcome news for Disney Vacation Club members and all Disney travelers.

While the pandemic brought strict regulations and altered the Disney experience, the latest Disney news signals a shift toward regular operations. Guests can once again enjoy magical moments without the constant worry of mask mandates, although a few exceptions remain in place.

A Look Back: Disney’s Reopening Journey

Since the summer of 2020, Disney has worked through phased reopenings and gradually restored previously suspended park activities. Initial progress was challenged by surges in COVID-19 variants, leading to the return of certain restrictions. However, with improving conditions, Disney has now accelerated its reopening strategy and eased many health and safety protocols.

The current policy reflects Disney’s continued commitment to guest safety, while also embracing the return of beloved park experiences.

Current Face Mask Guidelines at Disney Parks

According to the new policy, fully vaccinated guests are no longer required to wear face masks in most indoor and outdoor settings across Disney parks and resorts. This update creates a more relaxed environment for visitors and signals a promising step forward for travel and tourism.

However, there are some important exceptions to remember:

• Masks are still required for all guests (ages two and up) on Disney’s enclosed transportation, including buses, monorails, and Skyliner gondolas.
• Unvaccinated guests must continue to wear masks indoors. This rule is designed to provide extra protection for those at higher risk.
