New renderings released by Disney today offer a first look at the actual guest cabins at the upcoming Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel.

Guest rooms show bunk beds, along with a queen. A display at the front of the room provides the view out into space.

An opening date for the 2-day, 2-night Star Wars experience at Walt Disney World is still not available, although construction resumed fairly quickly following the COVID-19 reopening and work continues.

    I'm pretty sure the Imagineers of days past survived projects they worked on being killed. And there were alot of them, even well into development (Tony Baxter seemed to have the most)

    You have to assume they are primarily using the support buildings adjacent to the main Starcruiser building? I wonder if this is going to be the DHS WDI field office for Monstropolis/RNRC to save them having to build demountables like they are at DAK and MK?

    I bet the daily reminder that your project could die at any time really helps morale

    It's openly discussed by cast members that it is now the home of Imagineering Central Florida.

    "Disney has a history of abandoning things and letting them rot..." TAX WRITE OFF! (the same way when an apartment complex has an empty apartment, they get to write it off on their taxes)

    They're not short of parking lot space.

    The only chance they would ever have to turn this around would be to redesign it as an OT Mecca and market straight at gen X…which is where a lot of “Disney adults” lie. That’s it… They completely miscalculated why people go to Orlando: for all the stuff. To lock you in, charge you a fortune, and use pathetically bad source material was a doozy even by Disney hubris standards

    It’s Disney, it’ll likely sit there completely untouched for decades. In 10 years an urban explorer will find their way in and be amazed that it looks the same as it did the day it closed, everything still intact, just covered in years of dust. Disney has a history of abandoning things and letting them rot until they find a way of monetizing the land again. (River Country, Discovery island, Life pavilion, etc).

    Just thinking out loud but if there is ever going to be a relaunch of Starcruiser in any format I wonder if it would be around the time of Mandalorian and Grogu film next summer?

    I think AT THIS POINT IN TIME with no announcements on what will become of the 'hotel', I think Disney should just cut their loses and demolish it. That will provide more land for expansion!

    I'm forever thankful for this project, because it encapsulated everything that was and still is wrong with Disney's parks division circa 2016-2025. First from Bob Chapek, now from Josh D'Amaro. (Who turns out have the same failed leadership style, even if they have different tailors) The hubris, the cheap budget cuts, the heavy cringe, the 24 year old Comms interns writing press releases, the executive smugness, the blatant inability to tend to details, the brazen greed, the fine art of over-promising and under-delivering. Also the lobby line dancing... "AMAZZZZING!" All of it was just so wonderful to behold. I'm glad they gave this gift to us, and may we cherish it forever! :cool:
