The easing of the mask mandate comes after Universal Orlando Resort
and cruise operator Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd also made
face coverings optional for their guests.
Disney World in Orlando, Florida, operated by Walt Disney Co, said
it expects guests who are not fully vaccinated to wear face
coverings in all indoor locations, including theaters.
An update on Disneyland California's website showed masks were
required for unvaccinated guests in all indoor locations, while face
coverings were optional outdoors.

Disney World and Disneyland both said masks will
still be required in certain indoor settings,
including transportation.
Many major U.S. firms, including Goldman Sachs,
JPMorgan Chase & Co, have also made masks
optional for their workers, although President
Joe Biden said last week dropping COVID-19 mask
requirements entirely was "probably premature".
