After posting this (it supposedly was a day ago) I went to the United Vacations site. SeaWorld and Aquatics were still listed as were a number of hotels in proximity to the park.

Also, the only "news" stories originated from PETA or sites partial to their "efforts". I'll watch for truly mainstream sources to see if it's true or PETA trying to force an issue.

I would lean on that latter part of your statement. PETA has a history of harassing companies which have partnered with Sea World even before the Blackfish scandal.
