BLUE shrimp and a REAL lightsaber!? You’re going to want to be sure you have photo proof of it all when you stay at Disney World’s Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser! After all, you are paying $6,000 to be there — that earns you at least some bragging rights.

Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser
The new Disney “hotel” functions a lot more like a Disney cruise as opposed to a Disney Resort, as the cost includes a 2-night stay in a cabin or suite, most food and drink onboard, admission to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, valet parking, and a MagicBand, there are quite a few additional things that you can add onto your trip for an extra cost. This includes things like dining at the exclusive Captain’s Table, building your own droid or lightsaber when visiting Galaxy’s Edge, or a visit to Oga’s Cantina. And, now Disney has introduced ANOTHER add-on experience!
Passengers staying at the Galactic Starcruiser can now add the Disney PhotoPass CSL Portrait Experience to their two-night adventure on the Halcyon (CSL stands for Chandrila Star Line, the starcruiser’s operator known for its fleet of glamourous starcruisers). This is a PhotoPass Capture Your Moment experience that lets you book a private photo session with your very own Disney PhotoPass photographer.
According to Disney, the photo session promises to “capture your group’s Star Wars galaxy looks at unique places around the ship for a truly personalized photo experience.” In fact, you might even get to see some hidden spots onboard the Halcyon thanks to your “special clearance.”
Each 30-minute session also includes:
- Consultation, image capture, and review by specially trained Cast Members, using advanced digital photography equipment and lighting
- Downloads of all images taken during the session
We spoke with a Disney Cast Member who shared that the 30-minute session will cost $99 initially. If you’re interested in adding the experience to your trip you can call (407) 939-7739 up to 60 days in advance. Just keep in mind that you’ll only be able to download images captured during this session for the cost and will need to purchase Memory Maker if you’d like other photos taken by PhotoPass Photographers during your voyage.
And, we’ll continue to cover EVERYTHING about Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser, so stay tuned for more news!
