Disney is currently preparing for the return of regular, non-distanced character meet and greets at Walt Disney World.
According to those familiar with the preparations, we can expect to see guests once again hugging and interacting with characters starting just after the Easter weekend. Disney is yet to make any official announcement regarding any changes to meet and greets,
Although most of Walt Disney World's character meet and greet locations have returned, physical distancing remains in effect with characters located behind a barrier and guests unable to make any physical contact.
Notably, Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser is not using any distancing measures, with guests able to freely interact with the characters aboard the Halcyon.
Character meet and greets have been physically distanced at Walt Disney World ever since the parks reopened from the COVID-19 closure in mid-2020. The return of pre-COVID meet and greets marks another significant milestone for Walt Disney World's return to normal.
