Last week, Disney released an update to their policy about eating and drinking in the parks, requiring that guests who are eating and drinking remain “stationary” when they take off their masks. Today, Disney released a new update clarifying what coverings will be acceptable for guests to wear.

Previously Disney World updated their face covering policy to remove bandanas and gaiters as options for acceptable face coverings. Now, Disney has reportedly stated that they will no longer be allowing face masks with valves, mesh materials, or holes.

  1. For some time now, I’ve noticed lots of signs around Disney World warning about the danger of gaiters, but they must have rushed those signs out because “gaiters” is misspelled on every sign. They’re displayed only in outdoor locations too, I’ve noticed, primarily near waterways. Odd.

  2. We were at Poly, MK and AK last Sun-Wed. After they banned gaiters. There were many guests wearing gaiters around the resorts and even in parks. All of these rules are useless if not enforced.
