Their metrics are they are allowed to do it now. That's really it.
They wanted both Land and World to be at the same time and now that can happen so they did it. That's their metrics.
They saw the different states starting to do it, then Vegas and the casinos, and that was it they started the ball rolling.

Interestingly, here in CT, the statewide school mask mandate is confirmed to end, so school districts decide. Those that have already decided to go with masks being optional will still require masks on buses due to the federal mandate. It seems the federal mandate is poorly written and/or enforced but meant to include all buses. Many are just ignoring the intent of that policy. Like Universal.

Not really. If it were primarily money, they would have mimicked Universal all along. They didn’t. They knew it was costing them money but chose to be extra cautious longer than most other amusement enterprises. I applaud them for that.

I think it is finally time to put the anti-mask rhetoric to bed. It really has no impact on WDW any more.

Public sentiment shifting… this move, and the removal of state mandates, are contradictory to everything the CDC and government officials have been saying for two years… the only difference is public sentiment shifting against masks.

One of the biggest myths in disneydom these days is that they’re losing gobs on masks. I bet not…
Agreed. It’s PR more than anything.
When you go to book you’re “once in a lifetime magical dream vacation” on wdw.com…How long until you need a credit check before entering the park?
a $1,500 limit ain’t gonna scratch it.

CDC expected to update mask guidance as early as next week
The agency is finalizing details even as most states have already lifted indoor mask requirements.

At least soon they'll be on the right side of the CDC again...
It is technically LA City. Which has requirements for even outdoor venues to require masks if there are over a certain number of people.

Well, regardless of what happens next with people from all over the planet who may or may not be vaccinated running all over Walt Disney World without masks on, I guess we'll soon find out what a Small World it really is.

That is an interesting question, eh? I doubt it will change policy by I’m interested on the open resumption of travel into the US in general?
disney does have a very important safety plan to combat this.
I would wager that people from all over the planet will Enjoy their vacations with the ability to Still wear a mask if they choose.
I have friends visiting there right now and her and her daughter are wearing masks even outdoors. That's their choice and there's nothing wrong with it. They're having a wonderful trip right alongside people who are not wearing masks.
And for anybody wondering why they would mask outdoors, her husband is on the film crew for black panther 2 and they get tested frequently so they Are being extra cautious while traveling.
