Actually I think it's Sunday. People who bought and used their keys on August 25th of last year will have keys that expire on August 25th of this year, so I would count the 40 days starting on July 17. Interestingly, I can recall a number of times in the past when Disney implemented price increases on Sundays. Also, that's
Disneyland's anniversary. Wouldn't that be a fun day to start a new/revised annual pass program and increase prices? Ha ha. If there's going to be any news on this, I would expect it to drop in the next hour or so, but at this point who knows. It's been radio silence from Disney so far. I suppose they could just quietly start sending out e-mails to key holders as their renewal windows open up (or whenever Disney darn well feels like it even if it's inside the magic 40 day window), and we will find out what's up through places like these boards.
