Today, we’ve got a new update for you from the West Coast.
The global pandemic remains a fluid situation when it comes to Disney World vacations.
Previous Face Mask Signage
When the parks first opened, face masks were required at almost all times, social distancing markers were all over the place, and there was limited capacity in the parks. Most of those things have gradually faded away as things began to shift nationally and vaccines became widely available. But recently, safety measures like face masks were put back into place, regardless of vaccination status.
This week was a doozy when it came to Disney World news.

Can we let you in on a little secret? Sometimes we dream about driving away and just ~escaping~ for a bit. Do you relate?
Welcome to Disney World!
Maybe you’re thinking about escaping over to — oh, I dunno — Disney World, perhaps? No judging here. We love that place (did our name give it away? 😂). Gives us something to write about on a daily basis. But before you make the trek out to the Most Magical Place on Earth, let’s play a rousing game of Red Light, Green Light.
If you’re heading to Disney World for Halloween, this news is for you!
