Today Disney has opened its general booking window for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser after presale opportunities saw many sailings sell out.
The eagerly-awaited Galactic Starcruiser hotel will take Guests on a (simulated) two-night voyage through a galaxy far, far away. While aboard the Galactic Starcruiser, Guests will be fully immersed in the Star Wars story, as each decision they make will shape the outcome of their journey.
Until today, the only Guests who have been able to book reservations are Club 33 members, Disney Vacation Club members, Disney VISA Cardholders, Walt Disney World Annual Passholders, and residents of Golden Oak.
Star Wars: Galactic Cruiser will have 100 cabins and suites on board, and is expected to sell out quickly. This is despite the sample pricing on Disney’s website beginning at over $1,200 per Guest, per night. The space cruiser’s maiden voyage pricing for March 1 was more than $5,000 for a standard cabin with two adults.
Disney also recently announced four popular “Add-On Activities” that are not included in the cost of the Star Wars hotel vacation package — dining at Oga’s Cantina, building a lightsaber at Savi’s Handbuilt Lightsabers, constructing an Astromech droid at the Droid Depot, and booking a seat at the Captain’s Table on board the ship.
Disney’s official Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser website states that:
Your Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser vacation package includes:
- 2-night stay in a cabin or suite
- Ongoing, immersive and interactive entertainment, where choices determine your experience
- Food and beverages on the starcruiser (excluding alcoholic and specialty beverages) and a quick-service meal at Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo or other select locations at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
- Admission to Disney’s Hollywood Studios for your planetary excursion to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
- Valet parking
- Exclusive Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser databand (known on your home planet as a MagicBand)
Reservations for the two-night experience are fully booked for the whole month of March. The high rate of bookings comes at no surprise, as this hotel is a first-of-its-kind immersive experience perfect for Star Wars fans of all ages.
General bookings will only be available over the phone at (407) 939-5271. At this time, there will not be an option to book a reservation online.
Hopefully, you’ll be on cloud Nien Nunb once you secure your place onboard the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser next year! Stay tuned for any future updates about this new Walt Disney World Resort experience.
