NEW YORK — Six Flags Inc. confirmed Monday that it shut down indoor facilities — including restaurants and show venues — at its Mexico City theme park over the weekend at the recommendation of Mexican health officials working to contain the spread of swine flu.
Spokeswoman Sandra Daniels said the park will continue to cooperate fully with the Mexican government on the swine flu outbreak, which is suspected of causing up to 149 deaths in Mexico.
Daniels noted that the entire park is closed today as part of its normal operating schedule unrelated to the health scare.
Other U.S. companies are also curtailing operations in Mexico City — the epicenter of the swine flu outbreak.
Starbucks Corp. said Monday it has shut down 10 of its cafes in Mexico City in response to the swine flu outbreak. One of its employees in the city is being treated for flu symptoms, although it is unclear if the worker has swine flu.
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. said restaurants at its hotels in Mexico City will have limited operations and close at 6 p.m. to comply with a requirement by the Mexico City government. The company noted that all bars and night clubs in the city are closed by order of the government.
