Mark Swanson, the interim CEO of SeaWorld, said they are hoping to open June 10 for an employee appreciation night. Then, on June 11, they would like to reopen to the public.
As far as safety protocols, SeaWorld Orlando is putting the following measures in place:
Face masks required for employees and guests; Park will provide if they do not have one Mandatory temperature screenings for employees and guests before being allowed in the park Physical distancing throughout park Implement contactless payment systems Hand sanitizer as you get on and off rides Single riders line eliminated Social distancing will also be in place at animal exhibits and extra sanitizing will be done on handrails.
For Aquatica, rides and rafts will be cleaned thoroughly between uses. Extra sanitation will be in place throughout Discovery Cove as well.
The plans still need to be approved by Mayor Demings, and then Governor Ron DeSantis.
Stay tuned for more updates as we see them!

Michele is a life long Disney fan, and has two sons who have followed suit, each going on their first Disney trip before their first birthday’s. Part of the goal Michele has for The Main Street Mouse is not only to keep members informed, but to create somewhat of a Disney Family by relating to others through personal experiences and opinions. Also, Michele is making it a priority to share stories of inspiration and hope to other Disney Fans in an effort to share the Magic and hopefully make a difference in the lives of others.
