Bob Chapek: "..likely going to require is masks for both the casts and the guests..."
From his interview on CNBC today, Disney CEO Bob Chapek talked about a number of things, including that he expects guests will be required to wear masks in the park at reopening, even during summer months.
"...along with social distancing, one of the things that we're likely going to require is masks for both the casts and the guests..."
(At the 5 minute mark of the interview if you want to skip ahead to that portion)
Also talks about other things including the ramping up steps at Shanghai Disney.

I wonder if they'll revised character costumes to include masks? Central FL in August with a mask does not sound like fun.

Nope....no fun. I'm not going to wear a mask. Haven't worn one yet anywhere and certainly not going to wear one in a park, in the heat and humidity in the middle of Florida.

A very self-centered attitude. You are putting others at risk. If you don’t want to wear a mask, then stay home!

That is a very self-centered attitude also. Some people can't wear the mask as mentioned previously. Don't throw rocks in glass houses. If you you have an issue with it, then you can stay home too.

Here is fault in your logic. If you want me to wear a mask to protect you, then its your problem, not mine. If you are high risk or just scared, stay home. YOU want to inconvenience others.

Visiting WDW has ALWAYS had a list of inconvenirnces anbd requirements. People have long said they would stay home if they had to book dining in advance etc.
My adult son and I planned visits to WDW and each morning somebody in the family woul ask, "what's on for today?" and we'd say, "an EPCOT day that invcludes Akershus after Frozen Ever After ..."
Noone ever said, "what if I ain't in the mood for...".
When we walked 'across the bridge' tohave our Christmas Eve dinner at BOG everyone was in the mood.
we put in some flexibility for changes like a all day rain at BB etc.
Many of us remember packed busses after fireworks and I would sometimes say out loud, "we're all in this together".
I'd like to be avoid the whole plan ahead and reserve eveything including the park entrance itself BUT I don't want to pout at home.

I am not quite sure what that has to do with someone being self centered because they physically can't wear a mask. People who have disabilities have just as much right to do things they enjoy as people who do not have disabilities. Is wanting to breathe being self centered? I suppose you can view it that way, but in that case, it's ok to be self centered. The person who is afraid of someone not wearing a mask can stay home just as easily as someone who can't wear a mask. It is just as self centered for the mask wearer to make the disabled person stay home.

Just guessing you won’t be going then. I won’t wear a mask their either for the same reasons. But I have been smart enough to wear them while shopping and other activities since my wife is working directly with Covid patients and I wouldn’t want to infect someone like yourself unintentionally.

We wear our masks here whenever out in public. Its such an easy step to protect your neighbor, I don't understand the resistance of so many to do the same. Its no different for us from covering a sneeze, holding a door open, saying excuse me.
If Disney is functional come August, we'll bring a slew of character inspired masks and head out to the parks as planned.

Yeah, not wearing it to a park.
I don't even know my neighbors name. Plus, i question the use anyways, short of wearing the appropriate masks that you can either correctly clean/reuse or have disposable options. Which doesn't apply to man.

To be honest I don't know any of my immediate neighbor's names either, it doesn't change my desire to be courteous and kind. Same reason I donate to charitable causes when I can and make sure to pick up my trash.
Fortunately going to Disney World is not a necessity for life and everyone is free to choose if they want to attend and follow the rules or not attend.

Exactly, it's not going to be optional. People will be required to wear a mask in the parks or they won't be allowed in.

I don't think it will last forever. Eventually the bottom line will do the talking. If people don't go because of the masks, that restriction will be removed.

Actually, based on the way it reads, and based on the agreement with the union, masks will be required other places than just the parks. Wherever Disney cast members and/or guests are going to be in close proximity, I expect the masks will be required - except while eating or drinking. The cast members who are being asked to work and interact with thousands of strangers during a pandemic deserve the courtesy and extra protection of guests having a face covering for the short-term.

You are so right. And wearing masks is so stupid. They are nothing but a collector for every germ one comes across. All of these enlightened people wearing masks are doing themselves more harm than good. They touch surface after surface then touch the mask- everyone, so don't claim you don't. Nd if you eat/drink, what do you with the mask? Dispose of it and put on a new one? Put on the same one.

Yeah I'm not and plus I don't like the room rules and everything else is going to be a pain. Hardly worth it.

I am in the lower Hudson Valley in New York and the temperatures have been in the low 70's. I wear a mask and it does get very warm under it. I cannot imagine wearing one in the heat and humidity in Disney World. I know the grandkids would be very uncomfortable with them. I know it is all a precaution but I changed my mind for this year and made reservations for May 2021. It is wait and see now.
