Disney pulls out of Port of L.A.

Another blow to the local cruise business - the Disney Wonder will wrap up its L.A. schedule at the end of the year and move to the Port of Miami. Disney's presence in L.A. had been tentative from the start; the cruise line had signed a two-year deal in 2010, with an option to stay through 2015. In general, the port has been struggling in recent years because of modest terminal facilities and nagging concerns about the drug violence in Mexico.
