The most noticeable change as of late at Walt Disney World is the end of the outdoor mask mandate. That does not mean other health and safety changes are not underway. Subtle changes are taking place at resorts as well.

BouTiki is the largest store at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.

Previously, guests entered the right main entrance door and exited through the left side. Signs indicated which side was the entrance and which was the exit. Those signs have now been removed.


The doors located near Capt. Cook’s had previously been exit only. Now guests may enter and exit through either door.

We expect similar changes to occur at other Walt Disney World resorts, and even at theme parks, soon.

Finally more common sense coming from Disney!
This rule was right up there with not parking cars next to each other in WDW parking lot. LOL
This rule just brought people closer together because everyone is using same exits and entrances.
