In the parking lot, spots will be staggered so that even cars are social distancing from one another.From there, anyone entering the park must wear a face mask and have their temperature checked by a worker sporting a handheld thermometer http://trib.al/TRSdfKR
Crowds will be controlled and the wait for the ride will feel especially strange:
The healthy jitters of thinking about the first drop may be replaced by either the unnerving feeling of wearing a mask or the simple annoyance of it http://trib.al/TRSdfKR

Orlando was 95 degrees Thursday afternoon. Covering your face with a cloth mask while waiting to get on a ride wonât be very comfortable.

Eating will be difficult: You canât exactly lick a Butterbeer ice cream cone with a mask on, so the park is spacing out tables to allow people to remove their masks while they eat.Good luck to parents getting the masks back on their kids after that http://trib.al/TRSdfKR
Universal is also making use of virtual lines for more of its attractions so that people arenât physically standing together for long periods, and itâs eliminating single-rider lines so that groups arenât paired with strangers http://trib.al/TRSdfKR
In theory, itâs a carefully constructed plan by Universal to make the best of a terrible situation.
