Disney World and Universal Orlando Try to Get Past Hurricane Irma
It wasn't exactly business as usual this morning for Central Florida's leading theme parks. Disney (NYSE: DIS) and Universal Orlando parent Comcast (NASDAQ: CMCSA) opened their theme parks for the first time since Hurricane Irma devastated Florida over the weekend. All six of the popular gated attractions -- Magic Kingdom, Disney's Hollywood Studios, Epcot, Disney's Animal Kingdom, Universal Studios Florida, and Islands of Adventure -- closed earlier than usual on Saturday night, remaining closed on Sunday and Monday.
Closures are rare for the leading theme park operators. There was a shorter closure last year when Hurricane Matthew threatened the area, and this is just the sixth time that Disney World has had to shutter its parks in its 46-year history.
