Disney Is Paying Fans To Figure Out Why Star Wars Hotel Bombed
Disneyland Resort is set to launch a focus group of guests who previously stayed at the Star Wars: Galactic Cruiser hotel to see why it failed. After numerous delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Star Wars-themed hotel, which offers a two-night role-playing experience for fans, officially opened at Florida’s Epcot Resort Area in March of this year. So far, the hotel has received some unflattering reviews and more than a few complaints about its price.
The idea behind the Galactic Cruiser is a straightforward yet ambitious one: allow fans to experience the thrills of space as an actual character within the Star Wars universe. The Cruiser can accommodate up to 350 guests at a time, and customers are encouraged to participate in the journey’s interactive storylines, which includea variety of Star Wars characters as well as fellow passengers. During the 48-hour stay, guests are served five Star Wars-themed meals and can stare out at the vastness of space from the craft’s specially designed virtual windows. A spot on the journey will cost a single passenger around USD $750.

Whether due to lack of interest, cost, or being confined with others for 48 hours, Star Wars: Galactic Cruiser hasn’t exactly gotten off to the game-changing start it was intended to. That could be the reason why Disneyland Resort is now asking a focus group made up of the Cruiser’s past guests to provide information about their stay. According to DLnewstoday, those who participate in the group will be given a $175 Disney Gift Card.
