Walt Disney World Updates Face Covering Policy

According to the WDW Website:

“Face coverings are required for all Guests (ages 2 and up) and Cast Members. Please bring your own face coverings and wear them in all indoor locations, except when actively eating or drinking while stationary and maintaining appropriate physical distancing. Face coverings are optional in outdoor common areas at Walt Disney World Resort, but are still required upon entering and throughout all attractions, theaters and transportation.”

This updated policy went into effect on Saturday, May 15th.

Disney Wish DVC Member Exclusive Sailing Sold-Out

At the time of recording, the second sailing of the Disney Wish, a DVC Member exclusive sailing, is now sold-out. It is still recommended to keep checking both the DVC and Disney Cruise Line websites in case additional staterooms become available. 

There are still plenty of sailings to choose from as the inaugural season for the Disney Wish begins in June and runs through September 2022. Fall and winter sailings will be available for booking at a later date.
