Hence the call for people to stop coming to the U.S. for tourism. I'm not claiming Disney is hurting now. I'm suggesting that the best way to change the U.S.

  Once air travel in the US ceases to function, at least 30% of the guests will be unable to come to Disneyworld. That's a big hit. For example visiting Disneyworld is the biggest tourist attraction in Brazil and it's in Florida.

  It's going to take a lot to accomplish that. Disneyland is super crowded on a huge fraction of the days of the year. There's just not a shortage of domestic customers. In the 1950's when Disneyland opened, California's entire population was (very roughly) 11 million people. Today, there are (again, very roughly) 11 million people in Los Angeles County alone. Since opening, Disneyland has expanded its ability to take in customers by cannibalizing its old parking lot, but there's not much additional, affordable room for expansion today. And there are precious few fair-weather locations that are also economically and politically suitable for "another Disneyland campus." It's also worth noting that the Disney Corporation, though large, has about 1/5 the stock market capitalization of Google.
