food IS a theme park
Disney World still looks pretty different from the way it did prior to the 2020 park closures.

Social distancing markers are still in the queue, capacity is still restricted with Disney Park Pass reservations, and some ride experiences are still modified. Now, though, we did spot one eased health measure over in Magic Kingdom.
One of the biggest post-closure changes visible to guests when they travel to Disney World these days are the plexiglass dividers on rides. Over time, some rides have these barriers installed, like on Rise of the Resistance and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, to increase the ride’s capacity. Other rides, particularly fast-moving ones, originally opted instead to load every other row to allow for physical distancing.

In recent months, however, we noticed Disney shifting protocol to loading every single row, like what we saw change on Rock ‘N’ Roller Coaster and Slinky Dog Dash.
