Disney Testing New Security Procedures at EPCOT

Disney is always looking for ways to enhance guest experience and safety, and recently, new security procedures were tested at EPCOT’s eastern security plaza. These changes aim to streamline the process and improve overall efficiency while maintaining high security standards.

The most noticeable change is the new organization of guests as they approach the security area. Here’s how the new procedure works:

Guests Using Wheelchairs or Strollers: Directed to the far left, closer to the exit.
All Other Guests: Sent to the far right, closer to the Monorail station.

Previously, all guests entered the same area, with those using wheelchairs or strollers navigating through a separate line within the same general space. This new separation helps to better manage the flow of guests and reduce congestion.

Another significant change is the arrangement of the bag check tables, with the tables now set up diagonally instead of side by side. This new configuration seems to be designed to offer more privacy during the bag check process, as it makes it harder for other guests to see items being inspected.
