After Disney XD was successfully launched on 13 February 2009 in the United States, the Disney-ABC Television Group re-branded Jetix France to Disney XD on 1 April 2009 and it was expected to be rolled out to other European countries in that same year. In May, Disney announced that Jetix in certain countries (namely Hungary, Romania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Bulgaria) would be rebranded as Disney Channel, marking that channel's first introduction in those countries. The change occurred on 19 September 2009.
