QuikQuote: Tourists have been increasingly taking trips to the Magic Kingdom, but with the U.S. on an increased terrorist alert, some theme park enthusiasts may stay clear of Walt Disney Co.'s attractions in Orlando, Fla., and Anaheim, Calif., according to Credit Suisse First Boston Corp.
The last time the alert was at orange, in May, Orlando occupancy declined for five consecutive weeks, with declines in three of those weeks in the double digits, the analyst said.
