Magic Kingdom Is Off to a ROCKY START This Morning

By 2 Comments

We love a day in Disney World when everything goes perfectly. When we step inside the gate ready to ride some rides and everything is up and running and working properly — that is the perfect Disney morning.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Unfortunately, that doesn’t always happen. We’ve noticed that not all the rides are morning people either.

Cinderella Castle

When Magic Kingdom opened on the morning of Monday, September 18th, multiple lands in the park didn’t open with it. Actually, every single ride in Adventureland, Frontierland, and Liberty Square was listed as “temporarily unavailable” in the Disney World app. Fans began speculating wildly about what may have happened, but we never would have guessed that this unwanted guest was the reason for the holdup!
