The pricey and immersive Star Wars hotel at Walt Disney World in Florida is closing after just one year of taking guests on a two-night 'voyage' that could cost up to $20,000.
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser was originally sold as an experience rather than a hotel and costs around $1,200 per person per day. One 'tricked out' suite has been reported to come in at a whopping $20,000 for the trip.
The immersive lodging, which is based in Orlando - and does not have any windows - will carry out its final 'voyages' in September, four years after it was announced at D23 Expo in 2019 as part of the parks $1 billion Star Wars land.

You have to wonder who came up with this idea and convinced everyone that people would pay big bucks for this space-ship experience.

How many Americans did they expect to be able to pay $20,000/room/night, much less when they are antagonizing the American public?

I guess the Star Wars Hotel had a Darth of customers.

They’d be better off to just lower the price by half.

They recently, within the last six months or so, were saying that it was doing well.
Lol.

No windows. A simple flat screen monitor set into the wall would do.

There was a lot of bad press about it at the beginning but then I heard that it was not that bad and doing pretty well. Guess that was just Disney PR.

That’s no problem for elite Democrats.

Actually just adding that to your comment but strike for emphasis.

Who knew the no windows total immersion experience was gonna suck? I don't like airplanes, woke franchises, trans genders and certainly dont want to hang around with a bunch of trekie rejects in a windowless building.
this is what happens when you start listening to the voices inside someone else's head because yours is empty or you dont want to be mean to a dumb ass who needs his ass beat.
then again its disney, so good for them, They keep beating themselves up!
