Disney World Shares “Health Acknowledgement” Guests Must Adhere to

As we inch closer to the phased reopening of the Disney World Resort in Florida, more information on the experience and precautions are coming out. Read on for more details.

In order to enter the Walt Disney World theme parks, guests are making a tacit agreement that they are not unwell.

As you probably already know, face coverings will be required for all guests over the age of 2 and temperatures will be taken before entering.

Upon entering the Walt Disney World resort, guests are agreeing to the following:

That they are not currently experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 as outlined by the Center for Disease Control.

The following symptoms have been identified: Fever or chills, shortness of breath, cough, fatigue, muscle aches, body aches, headache, loss of smell or taste, sore throat, congestion, runny nose, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

That they have not been in contact with a person with known or suspected COVID-19 without completing the requisite 14 day quarantine.

That they themselves are not currently under 14 day quarantine orders.

If a guest cannot confirm all of the above, they will be denied entry to the Walt Disney World resort.

This is very similar to what we saw with the Hong Kong Disneyland reopening announcement.

Upon entering the Walt Disney World Resort, you agree that none of the above apply to you.

Walt Disney World, and their main competitor Universal Orlando, are taking the spread of illness seriously. Check out my article on minimizing your risk during your trip.

What do you think of these guidelines? Do they make you feel safer to enter the parks? Let us know in the comments on Facebook and in our friendly Facebook crew.
