Florida's major theme parks reopen after Hurricane Milton

Florida‘s iconic theme parks, including Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando, and SeaWorld, resumed operations on Friday after being temporarily shut down due to Hurricane Milton.

The powerful storm, which made landfall on Wednesday, led to a complete closure of these attractions, disrupting the vacations of thousands of tourists. Following thorough assessments of the storm's impact, the parks have reopened, though not yet at full capacity.

Some seasonal events, such as Halloween-themed celebrations, remain suspended as recovery efforts continue.

Hurricane Milton, which forced widespread closures across central Florida, caused significant disruptions. Orlando International Airport, the busiest airport in the state, halted domestic arrivals on Wednesday but began resuming operations on Friday.

Many tourists, like Simon Forster from Scotland, had their vacations extended as flights were delayed. Despite the challenges, some visitors managed to find ways to enjoy their extended stays, with activities such as miniature golf becoming a popular alternative during the park closures.
