Just days ago, the Walt Disney Company announced the heartbreaking news that their immersive hotel experience, the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, would be closing for good. While this news is devastating, it was also quite predictable. Since opening less than two years ago, the Star Wars hotel has not performed nearly as well as Disney had hoped. While it has been praised for its boutique experience, the Galactic Starcruiser has become one of Disney’s biggest ‘flops” of the last decade.

The news of the Galactic Starcruiser’s fate has drawn lots of media attention from fans around the world looking for a Star Wars adventure. Now that everyone knows the hotel will only be making voyages through September 30, 2023, the pressure is on to buy tickets while it is still around. For the first time since opening, the Galactic Starcruiser is seeing an influx of fans racing to book their trip to the ship.
