Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge

The day celebrating all things “from a galaxy far, far away” is already off to a bang! Disney just shared that the official opening of the much-hyped Star Wars Hotel, Galactic Starcruiser, has been pushed to 2022, they also shared a video of that crazy cool working lightsaber in action (we told you we didn’t dream that up!!). Now, we finally got some information on where we’ll be able to EAT onboard the Halcyon!

What Could Go WRONG If Disney World Opens the Star Wars Hotel This Year

By 2 Comments

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…Disney announced that it would be building a Star Wars hotel experience called Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser!

The “Star Wars hotel” is more of a cruise-type experience where guests will stay aboard a “spaceship” for 2 nights and participate in all kinds of activities including lightsaber training, operating the ship’s defense systems, meeting Star Wars characters, and more. Reservations were set to open in 2020 (but they didn’t) and the hotel experience is set to open in 2021. But, if Disney does open the Star Wars hotel this year, a few things could go wrong. Today, we’re breaking that all down for you.

YOU Think Disney’s Star Wars Hotel Will Cost 10K and Your Firstborn Child 🤣

We’re anxiously awaiting more news on Disney World’s most anticipated resort, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser!

The new experience will be unlike any other Disney resort hotel, as guests will be aboard a “ship” (the Halcyon) for two days with only one port stop in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, very similar to a cruise. Guests will be able to participate in interactive stories and dress the part throughout their stay. It sounds VERY unique and we anticipate many (including us!) will be eager to try it out. Problem is, progress has been SLOW! We decided to reach out to our followers to see what YOU think!
