COLORADO SPRINGS — The National Museum of World War II Aviation will reopen to visitors Friday.

The museum will be open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Masks will be required, and social distancing will be observed by limiting the number of people allowed to enter.

Visitors will be required to maintain at least 6-foot distance from other groups, and no more than 10 people per group will be allowed to enter.

Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the museum.

Docent-led tours will not be available. Instead, visitors will guide themselves through exhibits and aircraft in three structures.

Maps will show the preferred route through the museum to help maximize safe distancing.

The museum encourages all who plan to visit to buy online tickets before their visit. Tickets cost $13 for adults, $9 for children ages 4 to 12, and admission is free for World War II veterans.
