  • It looks like Disney is cutting the budget even more on the $6,000 Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel. Instead of the rumored luxury buses that were supposed to transport you to and from the hotel, Disney has resorted to plain ol' box trucks. And Universal Orlando is even taking shots at them. Then we talk about the Halcyon tie-in advertisement... er... comic book from Marvel Comics.

    For 6000$ (~5300€) you can theoretically spend three weeks in the Dominican Republic with two adults and two children, all inclusive plus flight from Vienna and back.
    And Disney thinks it's OK that you can take a box truck to their larp hotel, where you can play for 3 days star wars for the same amount of money?

    As a Hotelier I am very concerned about how they are trying to do this all on the cheap.
    I have experience with brand new hotels and seeing the results of cutting corners and budgets. It's a disaster waiting to happen.
    Add the fact it's entirely experimental, it will have countless moving parts, they have to balance hotel operations with performing and there is no plan B if they have to fix mechanical or operational issues that put rooms out of service.... This place screams disaster.
    Mark my words, either it will take a minimum of 2 years to shake out all the bugs and gremlins (or at least know where they are so they can be dealt with quickly), or within 5 years this will change from a all in one specialized experience to just an ordinary star wars themed hotel run like any other Disney hotel tourist trap minus all the extra crap.

      I watched hours of vlogs from CZcamsrs who went and it's just as I predicted: a massive dumpster fire! Bob Chapek truly has lost the plot.
      PS: i was afraid he would try to bribe some into giving positive reviews. I (and a LOT of other viewers) sternly warned our favorite CZcams channels: "You better give an honest review even if it's bad or we'll unsubscribe!" They took the warning seriously. None of the channels I frequented liked it and they all said the price was ridiculous.

    A box truck sounds like something you kidnap people in, not ferry people around in.

    I heard Disney is offering an exclusive, for an additional fee, called the Tico Experience where you get to guard the escape pods to prevent passengers from bailing early.
