Disney World Reopened Bookings for the ‘Star Wars’ Hotel…And It’s a MESS

By 3 Comments

As you may already know, Disney World has announced that they’ll be closing the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel later this year.

Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Atrium

The experience opened in March 2022, and it was truly one-of-a-kind. Similar to a cruise, you stay “onboard” the Halcyon Starcruiser for two days while you live out a Star Wars story and participate in activities, watch entertainment offerings, and have all your meals in the dining room. But the experience didn’t perform as well as Disney hoped, and now it’s set to close. Bookings reopened for the final voyages today, and if you’re trying to plan one last trip, we have some bad news.

However, Disney announced this week that the Halcyon would make its last voyage at the end of September 2023. Well, that voyage is now officially sold out.

If you’re a Star Wars fan, a live-action roleplay fan, or just someone who loves an immersive theme park experience…Disney World has something just for you.

Star Wars Hotel Atrium

The Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser opened back in March 2022 and it’s a truly unique offering in Disney World.
