News Disney mask policy at Walt Disney World theme parks

Some drivers don't have a clue that the cabin air filter in their car needs to be changed on a regular basis. Some car makes recommend every 30K miles. If the filter gets very dirty just imagine breathing what is coming out of your AC vent . That mask will help you not breathe that.

There are a lot of stupid people out there. I mean way more stupid people believing conspiracies than there should be. I won't force anyone to get the shot, outside of my offspring who are under 18 (hey I'm a mom I force my kid to wear a hoodie when it's cold and even bought a winter one as a trick to wear a warm coat). Do I think the conspiracy theorists are too dumb to vote? Actually yes. Will I stop them? Nope. Will I gently try to point out inaccuracies in conspiracy theories? Yep. Same with vaccines. I can try to get people to do it. I can suggest offering incentives to vaccinate, but I stop short at forcing.

Agree. It completely changes the experience on ROTR and especially Mickey's Railway.

I thought it was the worst on Falcon and Living With The Land, but I honestly think it bothers me more at shops and restaurants than on the rides.

It’s bad on all the rides, especially Living with the Land. If you’re not on the first row, then forget it.

A lot of drivers don't even know their car has a cabin air filter!
Masks on attractions don’t bother me at all. The plexiglass/plastic dividers are annoying on LwtL and KS in particular. Plexiglass dividers in lines I like.
Dealerships ( ie stealer ships) overcharge for this filter. Our local Honda dealer charges $90 for the service center to change out the filter. Our filter is behind the glove compartment. It takes less than 30 seconds to access it. The filter at the parts store at the Honda dealer is $30.

Yes, it's almost impossible not to notice it.

I think some of the precautions were just Disney being overly cautious so that if something did happen, they could say they did everything they could to protect people.
But is that necessary since we basically are agreeing to except any and all covid risk when we decide to vacation there right now?
I get that, but I also think we are past that point. I get them still requiring masks and having plexiglass in certain places, but they can certainly get rid of it on the rides.

I don't think it's a case of legal protection, instead it's for PR purposes.

I don't see them getting rid of it any time soon, because at this point they are continuing to add it in places. Also, it takes no effort to leave it and has no operational impact, maybe with the exception of having to clean it.

Will Disney be getting rid of outdoor masks now that Fauci says they will be updating that guidance? We are booked and are beyond our refund window. I wanted some measures still in place until kids can be vaccinated. I'd probably be okay with getting rid of outdoor masks and temp checks but I'd prefer masks for those long indoor lines

I personally think it will be difficult to drop outdoor mask mandates at Disney. It will make enforcement to difficult especially since people are constantly moving back and forth between outdoor, semi-indoor and full indoor spaces. There are just to many spaces at Disney that are in the grey area between indoor and outdoor.
