Animal Kingdom Entrance

We have already checked out Magic Kingdom, and now we’re ready to explore ALL the changes in Animal Kingdom.

We will be updating this post throughout the WEEK, so be sure to check back. And if you have any questions about the changes and the new procedures, please let us know! We will do our best to get you the answers you need.

Do note: This is just a preview, so things could change for the grand reopening of Animal Kingdom on the 11th.

Parking

Passholders were permitted to head into Animal Kingdom parking at 7:30AM for the preview. Attendants were parking cars in every other space so that guests can physical distance as they get out.

Bag and Temperature Checks

Temperature checks are done with handheld infrared thermometers in large white tents. Remember, these checks are administered by AdventHealth professionals.

Then it’s onto bag check. The new process here has you keeping all items in your bags and carrying them through the detectors.

Crowds and Wait Times

Right at the start of the day, Avatar Flight of Passage was registering a five-minute wait. We’ll definitely be keeping an eye on this wait time as more guests arrive at the park.
