Universal Orlando Resort Updates Face-Covering Policy
It seems as though when Universal implemented the face-covering rule, there was a bit of a loophole. The guidelines stated that you had to wear a face-covering as long as you weren’t eating or drinking. So naturally, people just bought snacks or drinks to walk around without their masks.
Universal has come back and updated its policy stating that guests must wear face coverings at all times unless they are “actively” eating or drinking and they must maintain social distancing while doing so. Which means you should move over, out of the way from people, to eat or drink.
See the updated policy below:
Since Universal has reopened, their new safety protocols seem to be going smoothly.
What other safety measures are in place?
Universal continues to work closely with local health officials and their own health and safety experts and reference CDC guidelines with respect to the safety of their Team Members and guests during this limited opening of Universal Orlando Resort.
- Limiting capacity and following social distancing guidelines throughout all attractions, restaurants and shops throughout the destination
- Increasing our already-aggressive cleaning and disinfection procedures, and frequently cleaning all high touch surfaces
- All team members will undergo temperature checks and wear face coverings
- All team members will participate in extensive training on our new procedures
Please note the CDC advises that older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions might be at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19. Guests should evaluate their risk in determining whether to attend. People who show no symptoms can spread COVID-19 if they are infected, any interaction with the general public poses an elevated risk of being exposed to COVID-19, and we cannot guarantee that you will not be exposed during your visit.
Please visit the CDC website for the latest guidelines.
