What’s Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Like?

Fangirls Going Rogue and FANgirl Blog were invited to a pre-launch sailing of the exciting new Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser experience at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. It’s almost impossible to put into words how this experience unfolded or how amazing it was to be part of an adventure in a galaxy far, far away. Despite the seemingly insurmountable task of expressing how it made us feel, we recorded two podcast episodes – one each night of the cruise – to share, in non-spoilery ways, our impressions, tips and tricks, and ravings about the dining experience. Links to both episodes are below. In addition, Fangirls Going Rogue created this vlog, offering this glimpse into our adventure.

Adventure Awaits as Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Launches for a Galaxy Far, Far Away Starting March 1, 2022.

Immersive two-night vacation experience invites Walt Disney World Resort guests to live their own Star Wars stories in an entirely new way.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (Feb. 21, 2022) – When “Star Wars: A New Hope” blasted into theaters 45 years ago, the film created a monumental cultural event, setting the imaginations of generations to come ablaze with tales of heroism, villainy, adventure, mysticism and romance. What is it like to travel to a galaxy far, far away? What is it like to fly on a starship? To make friends with an alien? To wield a lightsaber? To engage in a space battle? What is it really like to see, feel and live Star Wars?

The answers to these questions and many more will be answered March 1, 2022, when Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser debuts at Walt Disney World Resort. This first-of-its-kind immersive adventure is a vacation experience going beyond anything Disney has created before. Guests become the heroes of their own Star Wars stories during a two-night adventure aboard the Halcyon starcruiser, a vessel known for its impeccable service and exotic destinations. Passengers relax in well-appointed cabins, enjoy exquisite dining and out-of-this-world entertainment, experience Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in new ways, and explore the ship in search of hidden secrets and new opportunities.

Throughout the voyage, guests’ choices determine their personal stories as they interact with characters, crew and other passengers, becoming part of the action and the broader Star Wars saga. They may be asked to keep a secret, deliver a covert message, take part in a high-stakes heist, defend the ship, hide an ally … the possibilities are seemingly endless. Decisions guests make affect how these tales unfold, intertwining with those of other passengers and well-known characters such as Chewbacca and Rey as momentum builds on an action-packed adventure that may determine the fate of the galaxy.
