For many Star Wars fans and Disney Guests, the excitement for Walt Disney World’s new Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser quickly dissipated after the initial commercial for the Resort was shared by Disney. The commercial received such intense backlash that many reservations were dropped. Disney eventually wiped the video from the internet themselves, potentially due to the damage it had done to the reputation of the new Resort.
Now, reservations are seemingly at an all-time low for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser leaving many worried about what the future will look like.
We recently noticed on Disney’s official website for the Galactic Starcruiser Resort that reservations are way more available than they were previously before the commercial released.
Reservations for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser used to be booked solid for the foreseeable future but as seen in the screenshot above, reservations are now booked at less than half capacity for the upcoming months of both April and May. While many Guests are still excited for what’s to come when the Resort officially opens this March, many are wondering if the Resort has already failed.
July and August are both wide open in terms of reservations, with August being completely empty. It is important to note that many are only judging Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser based on the video Disney posted and the Resort overall could be an incredibly immersive and fun experience when it officially opens.
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser is a part of the overall Star Wars expansion to Disney’s Hollywood Studios which started with Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. Here on the planet of Batuu, Guests can live out all their Star Wars fantasies and interact with iconic characters like Rey, Kylo Ren, and a whole lot of First Order Storm Troopers. Guests can also experience two state-of-the-art attractions like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Millenium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run. More on Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser:
