New Disney Parks Rules Effective Today — New Smoking Areas Updated on Disney World Park Maps


Recommended Posts

In late March, Disney announced several new policies for guests visiting parks in Walt Disney World and Disneyland. And most of those new policies go into effect today, May 1, 2019.

Included in the new policies is a ban on smoking inside the parks. Park maps have been updated designating the new outside-of-entrance smoking locations accordingly.

In Animal Kingdom, the only smoking location is outside the gates near the security stands.

And as of today, the only Magic Kingdom smoking area is past the ferryboat and toward the bus stops.

Also this morning, many guests driving to the parks received this notice at the parking toll booth.

As a reminder, these new policies include a ban on smoking in the theme parks, limitations on Stroller sizes (including a new Policy banning Stroller Wagons), and new rules surrounding the bringing of loose and dry ice in the parks.

Now while we haven’t seen these stroller guides in Disney World parks yet, Disneyland has them on the ground to check your stroller size before going into the parks.
