ORLANDO, Fla. — Walt Disney World is changing one of its COVID-19-related policies, and we’ll be able to see folks smiling when it kicks in. As of this month, face coverings will be allowed to be removed while photographs are being taken — but with very specific restrictions.
“You may temporarily remove your face covering while actively eating, drinking or taking an outdoor photo, but you must be stationary and maintain appropriate physical distancing during this time,” the official Disney World website reads, along with an asterisk indicating that this change is effective as of April 8.
It’s similar to Disney World’s mask policy when eating and drinking, which keeps visitors from wandering without face coverings.
