Disney World's Top Rival Finally Gets Realistic
Theme park operators in Florida have been conceding that they won't be opening their gated attractions anytime soon. It's been two weeks since Disney (NYSE: DIS) and SeaWorld Entertainment (NYSE: SEAS) pushed out the initially ambitious reopening dates for their Central Florida theme parks. They remain closed indefinitely.
Comcast's (NASDAQ: CMCSA) Universal Orlando had been publicly married to an April 20 reopening day since closing down in mid-March. It finally balked on Thursday afternoon, pushing the restart of its expanding resort until June at the earliest. Comcast's update now states that the resort will remain temporarily closed through "at least" May 31, an important addition to the language since it could be June, July, or whenever the coast is clear at the other end of this coronavirus epidemic.
