Today is Thursday, April 20th…a very important date in the realm of Disney World fanatics.
Magic Kingdom
Why is that? Well, today is the day that Disney World annual passes are back on sale! Sales had previously been paused for three of the four passes, but now they’re all available online. However, there’s a catch.
