The Disney World parks have had to make a large number of health and safety changes recently.

And these changes always seem to be evolving.
Disney World Releases Another LONG Survey About Guests’ Experiences in Magic Kingdom!
We Asked Our Readers: Would You Bring Your Kids to Disney World Right Now? Here’s What They Said.
After the longest closure in Disney World history, the parks have now reopened to guests.
Main Street, U.S.A.
Upon reopening, the parks implemented a number of new safety measures for the health of both guests and Cast Members. These changes include reduced park capacity, Disney Park Pass reservations required for entry, face masks required for all Cast Members and guests age two and older, social distancing measures, and more.

What’s Happening With Rope Drop in Disney World?
When it comes to conquering Disney World and making the most of your day in the parks, many guests would traditionally take advantage of “rope drop.” Not familiar? Each park previously would handle rope drop a bit differently, but basically it is the process of first opening the parks each day to guests or, for guests, the process of getting there EARLY to be one of the first people in the park.
The name is based on a literal rope being draped across the front of land entrances before they opened for the day. Sometimes Cast Members would stretch a rope in front of the park opening crowd and walk them back to the most popular ride, reduing the ability of guests to run to the most popular attraction, which is obviously dangerous for other guests and Cast Members.
What Rope Drop at Hollywood Studios looked like pre-closure
But now, in a reopened Disney World, is rope drop still even a thing? Is it still worth it to wake up SUPER early and be among the first guests to enter the parks each day? Let’s take a look at what our experience has been like since the parks reopened and share our thoughts!
