The impending arrival of Hurricane Milton led Orlando's popular theme to close their gates -- a rare action speaking to the seriousness of the situation.

Walt Disney World announced its theme parks, water parks and shopping district, Disney Springs, would all be closed through Thursday, Oct. 10.

The Orlando area is the most visited destination in the United States due to Disney World, Universal and other attractions, drawing 74 million tourists last year alone.

Halloween-related celebrations have also made October one of the busiest and most lucrative times for theme parks.

While Disney rarely shuts its doors, its hotels are often havens for coastal residents fleeing storms. A check of Disney World’s online reservation system on Tuesday showed no vacancies.
