Disney World Makes Small Move With Big Consequences

The world's most-visited theme park resort kicked off 2021 with an interesting twist last week. Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) is now letting Disney World visitors with multipark admissions check out more than one of its gated attractions on any given day. You have to go back to mid-March of last year -- when Disney shuttered its domestic parks -- to find the last time that it allowed what it calls park-hopping.

This is a pretty big deal for Disney, especially given three of its other resorts worldwide are currently shuttered in an effort to contain the COVID-19 crisis. It's a financial game changer for the entertainment giant for some obvious and not-so-obvious reasons, and it comes at a time when its struggling theme park segment could use a boost.
