Today the Orange County Recovery Task Force released their initial guidelines for various businesses for re-opening proceedures. Included are guidelines for hotels, restaurants, movie theaters and theme parks.

I went and grabbed screen shots to share the information with you.

Theme Parks

We’ll start with that since that’s what most people following this blog are interested in. They had the information divided into small theme parks and large theme parks. The Large Parks being Universal Orlando and Walt Disney World.

The list includes the following:

Hotels

The hotels are listing guidelines limiting house keeping to only when necessary and after guests leave. They are also saying that mobile check-in should be used, Disney already made that mandatory.

Mandates for hotels include sanitization of surfaces, employee health checks, removing service items from rooms, not stocking mini-bars, sanitizing keys and bells and no conferences until Phase 3.
