(Reuters) -Walt Disney World said its theme park in Florida would remain closed on Thursday, joining other major Orlando attractions preparing for disruptions as Hurricane Milton approaches the state.

No trips to Florida theme parks this week. All major theme parks have closed for Hurricane Milton ahead of its hit. But when will they reopen?

Tourism in Orlando rapidly came to a standstill Wednesday with the main airport and at least three theme parks and other businesses set to shut down, leaving Florida residents and visitors fleeing Hurricane Milton to hunker down in area hotels.
