Disney and Star Wars fans eager to experience the upcoming Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser have already filled up the Halcyon starcruiser's maiden voyage during the early booking window.

With general reservations beginning October 28, early bookings have been made by some of Walt Disney World's most affluent guests, including Golden Oak residents, Club 33 members, and Disney Vacation Club members.

The two-night maiden voyage that launches on March 1 2022 sold out yesterday October 7, after being on sale since October 5. Currently, all future dates remain available.

Although the sell-out of the maiden voyage is an impressive achievement, especially given its lofty price tag of around $5200, it should be noted that the Starcruiser is a limited capacity experience with only 100 cabins.

Oh, look. Bait. 👀

"Able to watch people different from themselves..." You still really think that's the issue?

Agreed. Maybe they’ll do something like that at some point.

I think you can’t say what you meant, or it will get deleted. The “failed” Marvel TV character got excellent reviews, did a great job, and the show was unique and enjoyable for those who are able to watch people different from themselves without resentment. The movie was fun (!) and I would recommend it to anyone not hung up on, “Is this a girl movie?” type issues. The Wizard of Oz was a box office bomb. So? Next.

I’m really surprised by the missed opportunity here. I can’t help but wonder why they didn’t create a normal deluxe hotel based on Star Wars IP. You could still had the actors, but this could have been paid experience. A dinner show? More condense. Disney would actually saved more money and make more profits. Even if you didn't like Star Wars, Disney guests might have checked it out for the Space theme. You could have done a lot creativity with the pool or the bus stop to the parks.

I enjoyed the film. The villan was weak but that's the case for most Marvel films. Also not sure why you are posting about this in a Starcruiser thread?

I think you can work things out on your own. Here's an example The Marvels An inexperienced handpicked director + an unlikable lead + a failed marvel tv character + a shoehorned uninteresting marvel tv character + an unknown meh villain = A Box Office Bomb

Do explain.

There is so much truth to this, and far too many options to take the place that are close enough in quality or surpassing.

101% We have been arguing about this for 5-10 years around here…and If you said “I don’t know…this might not be the way to go…” …you were jumped on as archaic, immature, and a bigot in most cases. It was just reading the tea leaves. The world is flawed…and you can’t force people to evolve on a timeframe. They have tried…and they are losing untold billions from it. Not a good strategy at all

I think Disney has been using the worst strategy ever. There is no point in attacking fans and name calling, just because they don't like your bad product. It won't make them want to watch your future bad stuff anymore. They'll just say screw them I'll just watch "The Penguin".

As with society as a whole… …they started sending messages to the big fans that they weren’t good enough anymore. It’s a brutal lesson being learned by people around the globe right now

Disney has had a lot of missteps the past few years. They should probably go back to hiring the best person for the job, rather than whoever checks off the most boxes. How many bad Marvel and Star Wars movies and tv shows are we going to get. Heck Willow was so bad they erased it from existence. I can't believe what they've done with Marvel, how did they manage to derail that gravy train.

I am also an introvert, but I have learned to feel alone even among people. It helps me to worry less.
