Disneyland and California Adventure officially announced plans to close amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“While there have been no reported cases of COVID-19 at Disneyland Resort, after carefully reviewing the guidelines of the Governor of California’s executive order and in the best interest of our guests and employees, we are proceeding with the closure of Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure, beginning the morning of March 14 through the end of the month.
The statement also reveals that Disneyland will work with customers to refund pre-purchased tickets and hotel stays but warned that due to the likely high volume of callers, the wait to talk to someone may be long and requests"patience" from callers. The Disney company also wanted to make it clear that there have been"no reported cases" of COVID-19 at the park.
So far, the closure only impacts Disneyland in California. Disney World in Florida will remain open for now. According to , this is only the fourth time in history that Disneyland has ever closed its doors. The other three times were during 9/11, the Northridge earthquake, and after JFK's assassination. Disneyland is currently the largest employer in Orange County, employing nearly 30,000 people and is a major contributor to the local economy.
