Disney has been in the middle of a number of lawsuits lately, but one important court case could be ending soon.
Magic Key Exclusive Popcorn Bucket
One of the lawsuits that had been filed against Disney (a while ago) was a $5 MILLION(!) case surrounding Magic Key Passes (essentially Disneyland’s version of Annual Passes) and their interaction with Theme Park Reservations. The lawsuit alleged that Disneyland “deceived its most loyal fan base by artificially limiting theme park capacity and blocking passholders with ‘no blockout’ annual passes from making reservations.” But now, it seems that case could be coming to an end.
