Disney posts Galactic Star Cruiser pricing, and it's unsurprisingly expensive

Wasn't Padme a space Karen?

I disagree.

Space Karen > Jar Jar

Hell, Rip Ride Rockit > Jar Jar

Well, three of my nerd friends from Texas are already tapping me to help them plan a trip for Galactic Star Cruiser. So, there will at least be a few customers.

My collab partner says he wants to go there as a retirement gift to himself. He's got 25 years to save up.

So Universal’s Harry Potter immersive hotel coming in 2026?

Disneys Avengers immersive hotel in 2028?

Followed by the grand opening of Iron Gwazi and Icebreaker in 2030.

This can probably be seen as a once in a lifetime destination for many people. My jaw drops when I watch YouTube and see how much people pay for stuff at the Star Wars areas, like personalized light sabers and droids. I'm sure people will pay $5k for a an immersive Star Wars hotel experience.

I'm interested in watching people on YouTube do this. I'm sure the kayfabe will be epic.

I have zero doubts this this will be anything less than a smashing success. Plenty of people will be willing to drop that amount of coin to do this.

Universal suggests you could buy churros instead.

I love the UO Twitter feed

Heh. Their top level hotels aren’t exactly cheap either.

That strategy was completely worth it though, even though it took decades to follow through on. The original three hotels are pretty nice with Contemporary Resort-like access to the parks. Eventually they landed on the somewhat cheaper rooms further out, including the new buildings on the former water park site.

Count me in. Did GE for my 50th and it was an amazing time.

I do a lot of cruises, this is just the next logical step for me I guess. :)

My only beef with it is one thing. Why do I have to be recruited by The Resistance? I've always identified as an Empire/First Order kind of guy.

So, minimum of $4800 for 2 nights. Lets say they don't overlap any stays so there are 182 possible booking dates a year. Multiplied by the 100 stated cabins.

$87,360,00 a year. Minimum income.

That's a LOT of churros.

And if they all spend on drinks like I do whilst cruising, that's some great math.

Yeah.. all I can say about alcohol on cruises is, "Thank the Gods for inclusive drink packages."

I wish that was a thing on DCL.

The itinerary indicates that on the morning of the second day there will be an excursion to Galaxy's Edge. Will this be a kind of ERT where that area is closed to the public every other day? Otherwise it seems like it would kill the illusion to disembark at Batuu and encounter a bunch of folks in "I'm with Stupid" t-shirts.

No, because one of the included meals is at the big counter service location, so you'll definitely be with stupid. 🤣 I mean, you'll be with other (affluent) tourists, er, "passengers," anyway.

There's another part of the human race you'll get to cosplay with for 48 hours. I'm sure they will all be at the Regalia.
