We’re LIVE From Inside Magic Kingdom in Disney World For the First Time Since the Closures!
Magic Kingdom in Disney World officially reopens on July 11th. But we’re inside reporting LIVE today from Cast Member previews. We were invited by a friend, which means we can give you a sneak peek of what to expect when the parks officially reopen in just a few days.
A lot has changed…and we mean LOTS! Not only are there new health and safety procedures, but even the castle is a different color. Follow along with us as we journey through the park this week to check out what it’s like to dine, ride, and shop in Disney World.
Be sure to check back as we will be updating this post throughout the WEEK.
Parking and Transportation
When parking today, we were directed into every other spot. Disney later fills these spots in after guests have exited their vehicles.
Now, since this is just a preview, transportation is operating a bit differently. Today, the tram was not operating, but the monorail and ferryboats are available.
We were given a number to stand on prior to boarding the monorail.
A partition has been added inside of the monorail as well.
Bag Checks and Temperature Checks
Disney is now asking guests to put all electronics and anything metal into a clear plastic bag when going through the bag check. This can add a bit of time depending on how many electronics you have with you. Don’t forget, guests must have their temperatures checked prior to entering the parks as well.
The entrance had stickers on the ground to help guests in physical distancing as they enter the park.
Cinderella Castle Refurbishment
Our first priority, once we were actually IN Magic Kingdom, was taking a look at the new pink Cinderella Castle! The refurbishment is still a work in progress, but Disney has made some serious progress on this iconic structure.
Do keep in mind, this is just a preview. Therefore, procedures could always change prior to reopening. Cast Members and guests alike are still figuring these new processes out, so things may vary on a daily basis.
We know that things look pretty different. So, if you have any questions that you’d like answered, please let us know. We will do our best to get you all the answers you need!!
