Walt Disney World and Disneyland are making changes to the mask wearing policies soon. Walt Disney World will make face coverings optional for fully vaccinated guests indoors and outdoors. Disneyland is not requiring face coverings in some locations if vaccinated. Those not vaccinated are still “expected” to wear masks.

They will still be required on enclosed transportation though.

Here is what is now posted on the Walt Disney World website:

“Beginning February 17, 2022, Face coverings will be optional for fully vaccinated Guests in both outdoor and indoor locations. We expect Guests who are not fully vaccinated to continue wearing face coverings in all indoor locations, including indoor attractions and theaters. Face coverings will still be required by all Guests (ages 2 and up) on enclosed Disney transportation, including Disney buses, monorails, and Disney Skyliner.”

Disneyland has this change listed:

“Beginning February 17, 2022, face coverings are required for unvaccinated Guests (ages 2 and older) in all indoor locations, including throughout indoor attractions and indoor queues. Face coverings are required for all Guests, regardless of vaccination status, in certain indoor settings including Disney shuttles and in health settings, such as in First Aid. Face coverings are optional for Guests in outdoor areas.

All face coverings (whether disposable or reusable) must:

• Be made with at least 2 layers of breathable material
• Fully cover the nose and mouth and secure under the chin
• Fit snugly but comfortably against the side of the face
• Be secured with ties or ear loops and allow the Guest to remain hands-free”

Keep this in mind when visiting these parks.
