Disney4me Posted May 14, 2020 Report Posted May 14, 2020 Today, Universal CityWalk in Universal Orlando Resort has reopened with limited operations for the first time since beginning a temporary closure of the entire Resort in light of the current global situation. At press time, we are providing live coverage of our full experience on reopening day of the Resort’s shopping and dining district (while the theme parks remain closed until further notice). Universal CityWalk Reopening We’re also taking a closer look at our experiences with the new health measures in place around CityWalk, from our arrival and parking to dining and beyond. And while we’re definitely doing some eating, we also stopped by the Universal Studios Store. If you’ve ever visited Universal Orlando during your Florida vacation, this may be a familiar sight! Universal Studios Store A Universal team member stands near the door to monitor entry since retail locations in Florida are currently operating with limited guest capacity. Universal Studios Store As we explore the shops on CityWalk, one thing that we couldn’t help but notice is the prevalence of items such as face masks and hand sanitizer available for guests to purchase, as Universal has stated would be available on their website. Universal Studios Store Universal requires that all guests and team members wear a face covering. Universal Studios Store We found plenty available for purchase at 1 for $6.00 or in packs of 3 for $15.00. Face coverings Face coverings The masks themselves feature adjustable straps and you’ll also spot instructional signs for tying slip knots. Face coverings Face coverings Individual bottles of antibacterial hand sanitizer featuring carabiner clips for ease of carrying on your bag are also available for $3.00.
