Back to the Future… In Citywalk??? https://ift.tt/G0sedtz

A long-standing rumor has been that Universal will be opening one, if not more, “Escape Rooms” at Citywalk in Orlando.

For those that do not know what an escape room is, well…

For an Escape Room Adventure, you and your group are locked in a room. The object is to use clues that are strategically placed within that room to figure out a mystery and a way out of the room.

News has leaked that Universal has applied for construction permits for two structures. They are rumored to be a “Back to the Future” and “Jurassic World” Escape rooms.

Universal Requiring Mobile Ordering? https://ift.tt/6KPJRT7

Many of the quick serve locations within Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure are no longer accepting walkup ordering. This means that you MUST use mobile ordering via a smartphone to place an order. This is a major inconvenience for those that do not want to use mobile devices within the parks.

CDC Airline Mask Mandate Lifted https://ift.tt/KzLCRbD

For the first time in over two years, masks are no longer required on US airlines. In a 59-page lawsuit ruling, U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle in Tampa said the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention overstepped its authority in issuing the original health order on which the TSA directive was based.

Although there is no longer a federal mandate requiring mask wearing, individual forms of transportation still have the option to require masks on their transportation.

At this point most, if not all, major airports have dropped the requirement of wearing masks in the terminals, but still strongly recommend that passengers voluntarily wear them.

It has also been announced that as of Tuesday, April 19, 2022, Uber will no longer require passengers and/or drivers to don a mask… It is unclear if a driver could still require a passenger to wear a mask inside their vehicle.

As of the time of this post, Universal has not released any comments on how or if this affects their current mask policy.
