Disney has released the trailer for its upcoming Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel, which will be launching in 2022 at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. The hotel will celebrate what has become one of the biggest and most popular franchises in the world. The Star Wars film series began in 1977 but brought in a new generation of fans with the start of the sequel trilogy in 2015. With its streaming series, including The Mandalorian, the Star Wars franchise continues blooming under Disney.
Building on this momentum, in 2018, Disney released the concept art for a luxury Star Wars hotel for its theme park in Orlando, Fl. Over the years, the company has documented the development as the hotel transitioned from concept to reality. First-look images revealed hotel rooms that perfectly mimic the spaceship cabins in Star Wars, decked out with a galaxy view, X-wing style color schemes, and bunk beds built into pods. Aerial shots of the hotel have also teased the massive scale and out-of-this-world experience it will offer.
Disney Parks released a trailer ahead of Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser's 2022 launch. The brief trailer depicts a family's adventure onboard the Galactic Starcruiser. It highlights an immersive experience, with a Star Wars-inspired story arc of guests traveling far and being recruited by the Resistance to save the galaxy. Check out the trailer below:
The trailer advertises the hotel as a "2-Night Adventure," further highlighting the fact this will not be an ordinary guest experience. Rather, visitors will be transported to a real-life Star Wars scenario where they get to play out a story. The trailer came after more detailed pricing info for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser was released. The projected price for two guests is a total of $4,809, while the projected price for four guests is $5,999. These number may vary depending on the specific activities booked and the time of year. Of course, the numbers don't seem quite as high when one considers the finer details of this transportation from Earth to space, including the ability to work the controls of the ship, eat at Halcyon's supper club, own launch pods, and participate in fun activities such as lightsaber training.
Overall, the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser is likely be a once in a lifetime opportunity. The trailer is set up like it's teasing the next Star Wars film instead of a hotel, portraying the epic adventure and mission that awaits guests. 2020 was an extremely rough year for Disney theme parks, while 2021 has seen a cautious resurgence. The Star Wars hotel combined with the recent launch of Disney's Avengers Campus certainly heightens the appeal of the theme parks during this period of recovery. Of course, the hotel does raise some concerns for guests. First of all, the steep prices make it improbable for the vast majority of vacationers, especially considering the job losses and economic struggles during the pandemic. The tight cabin-like rooms may cause some claustrophobia, and it may also be difficult for guests to enjoy the full extent of the hotel experience while also exploring the parks. However, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser will certainly draw in guests and could be very profitable if it lives up to its trailer in providing an immersive, realistic experience for Disney visitors.
