BREAKING NEWS: Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Hotel Will Open in 2021
Ever since rumors started flying about a Star Wars-themed hotel coming to Walt Disney World, everyone wanted to know when it would open. We recently learned the hotel would be called Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser but we were still waiting for that opening date. Even as a travel agent myself, I didn’t know if it would open until 2020 or 2020. Tonight, I am happy to confirm that it will be opening in 2021 – just in time for Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary!
Once open, the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Hotel will take Guests on a new type of immersive vacation that only Disney could create – a two-night, cruise-style itinerary where you’ll become the hero of your own adventure in an experience that surrounds you 24/7 in Star Wars storytelling.
If you look at the newest concept below that was also just released below, you get a first look at what you’ll see when you arrive for your Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Hotel vacation. The Galactic Starcruiser Terminal is where you’ll begin your Star Wars experience!
Whether you show up via personal vehicle, Disney transportation or by landspeeder, curb-side check-in prepares you to leave Earth behind, jump to lightspeed and begin your Star Wars story. From the Starcruiser Terminal, you will enter an exclusive launch pod (above) for travel up to the Halcyon, your starcruiser in a galaxy far, far away. Through the pod’s viewports, it looks as though you are traveling through space to approach the massive ship that is much too large to land on any planet.
A “spaceport of call” to Black Spire Outpost o is included in your itinerary, where special passenger transports take you to the planet Batuu or Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
To get from Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Hotel to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and back, you’ll remain fully in-story as you step aboard the transport ships designed specifically for this new immersive experience, which you can see in the artist concept rendering above, released today. It will connect you directly to a spaceport at Black Spire Outpost on Batuu, where the story you began in the starcruiser will continue and evolve while exploring the 14-acre land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
