OPENING DATES:
  • Phased re-opening Magic Kingdom/ Animal Kingdom: July 11, 2020
  • Epcot and Hollywood Studio will open: July 15, 2020
Cast previews and soft-openings will lead to opening to "launch, learn, and adjust" along the way. ​


Other Key Findings
  • New theme park reservation system. Guests will have to make reservations for the park they will be attending that day. More information will be coming. 
  • ​Required facemasks for guests and cast members, more handwashing, and increased physical distancing. 
  • ​Significant reductions in capacity and implement practices to have more social distancing.
  • More frequent cleaning protocols for guests and employees will be implemented. 
  • Guests and casts will also have temperature checks at the main entrances for guests. 
  • Increased mobile food ordering and temporarily pausing meet and greet and play areas. Push towards magic-bands and encouraging a cashless environment. 
  • They are temporarily suspending parades, fireworks, and other events that create crowds.
  • Character greetings will be paused. 
  • Guests will receive "Know before you Go" information through their website, travel agents, and the WDW app. Protocols will be present and visible throughout the parks. 
  • ​Social Distance Squad "highly energetic individuals committed to emphasizing social distancing" will be implemented. 
  • They may be using QR codes for maps and disposable menus for ordering in restaurants. 

​The plan was approved by the Tourism Council.

They then went into a series of presentations of representatives from the theme parks. Here's a brief summary of what SeaWorld said about their ORLANDO parks.

SeaWorld: Targeting opening June 10, 2020 for an employee appreciation night and then open to the public on June 11, 2020. For enhanced safety measures they will be modifying their policies on face coverings, physical distancing, cleaning and sanitation, employee and guest temperature screening, work and sick policies and Covid-19 training. They state that they will manage the capacity accordingly. 

KEY ELEMENTS
  • Guests and employees will be required to wear face coverings. If a guest does not bring a face covering one will be given to them by the park. 
  • ​Guests and employees will all be required to pass a temperature screening.
  • Ticket screening will happen by gate attendants through Plexiglass
  • There will be far more food pre-packaging options.
  • They'll have dedicated entry and exit doors for shops. 
  • IT SOUNDED LIKE Guests will be required to have their own bags for any souvineers they purchase.
  • They are paying closer attention to handrails. 
  • Will provide hand sanitizer as you get on the ride and hand sanitizer as you get off the ride.
  • More physical distancing for character greetings.    
  • According to the CDC there's no proof that shows that Covid-19 can spread through water so there should not be a major impact to waterparks. They will increase physical distancing.
