If you are thinking about booking a stay at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel at this time, be aware that there are numerous health and safety protocols, including keyless room entry and contactless interactions with Cast Members, currently in-place.
Disney is taking steps to protect both Guests and Cast Members as the coronavirus pandemic continues to be a major concern for many travelers.
