If you’re planning on snacking while waiting to get on your favorite attraction at Disney World, think again.
Disney World and Disneyland has banned eating and drinking in the queue lines for rides and attractions.
Before the new signs appeared, park guests were regularly standing in line, but would remove their masks to eat/drink and were not practicing social distancing. The signs also remind guests that a face mask must be worn at all times, and must cover both the nose and mouth.
Disneyland on Thursday announced the date that a portion of California Adventure will reopen. Buena Vista Street will welcome back guests beginning Nov. 19 for shopping and outdoor dining. Currently, the Downtown Disney district is open, but the rest of the sprawling Southern California resort remains closed because of restrictions put in place to contain the novel coronavirus pandemic. It is assumed the reopened area will be decorated in Disney’s signature holiday style.
The on-going pandemic has hit live entertainment at both parks very hard. Broadway shows are already cancelled into March 2021 with hundreds of performers and thousands of park support personal recently being laid off. Multiple Disney parks in Europe have already shut down again due to rising COVID-10 positivity rates.
Thoughts and prayers for the survival of the mouse house!
