b. Disney Hotels
There was no major damage to the buildings or facilities. Also, work on confirming the safety of the hotels has been completed.
The date of re-opening is not yet determined, as the hotels are scheduled to reopen at the same time as the Parks.
c. Ikspiari There was no major damage to the buildings or facilities. Also, work on confirming the safety of Ikspiari has been completed. The date of re-opening is not yet determined.
d. Disney Resort Line There was no major damage to the buildings or facilities. Although there is no impediment to the monorail operations, the date of resuming operations will be determined depending on the status of the other facilities within Tokyo Disney Resort.
e. Cirque du Soleil Theatre Tokyo Although there was no major damage to the building or facilities, inspection of the equipment is still ongoing. The date of re-opening is not yet determined.
2. Effects on our Business Results
Effects from this earthquake to our buildings and facilities were negligible. We are currently reviewing the ramifications to our business results due to the closure of the Parks and other facilities.

Tokyo Disney Resort Japan Earthquake Update - March 15
Posted today on the Disney Parks Blog...
First and foremost, our hearts go out to all of the people in Japan who have been impacted by last week’s devastating earthquake in Japan. In response to this disaster, The Walt Disney Company is making a $2.5 million contribution to the Red Cross to help aid in the disaster relief. The company has also coordinated a charitable giving program for all Disney employees and will match donations, dollar for dollar, up to an additional $1 million.
In regards to our theme park operations, Tokyo Disney Resort will remain closed this week so that a comprehensive safety investigation can be performed. While there was only minimal damage to the resort, the safety of our guests and cast members is always our top priority so we want to be as thorough as possible in our inspections. The quake caused considerable damage to the local infrastructure and transportation systems in the area so we need to take that into account as well. Fortunately, all of the guests who were at the resort when the quake hit have been able to leave despite these transportation challenges.
A decision regarding operations at the Tokyo Disney Resort will be made on March 21 and we will continue to post updates on the Disney Parks Blog as the situation progresses. The thoughts and good wishes of the entire Disney company go to our colleagues in Japan, their friends and families and all of the Japanese people as they begin their recovery efforts in this difficult time.

Disney's Official Statement on How the Earthquake Has Affected Parks and Operations
From the Official Disney Parks Blog...
As many of you know, an 8.9-magnitude earthquake struck near the coast of Japan on Friday and Tokyo Disney Resort was one of the many areas affected. Fortunately our team on the ground has reported only minor injuries and minimal property damage at Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea. The safety of our guests and cast members is always our first concern so both parks will remain closed on Saturday to allow for a thorough inspection of our attractions and facilities. Cast members at the Tokyo Disney Resort are also providing humanitarian aid in the form of blankets, food and water for guests who are still at the resort due to the transportation challenges associated with the earthquake.
Because of the quake’s effect on the waters of the Pacific, the Disney Wonder’s itinerary was altered slightly due to the closure of the Port of Cabo. Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, currently under construction in Ko Olina, Hawai’i, was not impacted.
Our thoughts and sympathy go out to our guests, fellow Disney cast members and all of the people in Japan affected by this terrible disaster. We’ll share any additional information today by posting updates at the top of this

Japan Hit By Major Earthquake and Tsumani. Tokyo Disneyland Resort Affected.
The major earthquake that hit Japan has had an effect on the Tokyo Disneyland Resort. According to reports the car park has been hit by an effect called "liquefaction" causing it to be drenched with water-logged segments from the ground. There were 69,000 people in Tokyo Disneyland at the time but there are no reports of injuries. Twitter user Rezaikram has Tweeted a few pictures like the one below of guests camped out in the public areas of the park. He reports that guests have not been allowed to leave the park.
5:00AM Pacific Time Update: Disney Parks Creative Entertainment exec Steven Davison (who is at Tokyo Disneyland for Fantasmic rehearsals) posted on his Facebook page that they have been told the parks will be closed on Saturday so officials can inspect for damage.
Disney's Aulani hotel (still under construction) is on the side of Hawaii that faces Japan so that is something to watch as the tsunami from the earthquake approaches Hawaii. It's due to reach the island at 5:07 AM Pacfiic Time.
