Disney closing Star Wars hotel after just year and a half. Austin is disappointed.

Disney’s Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser hotel is closing already. It’s been open less than two years, but I saw this coming. Just a couple months ago I talked about how they were cutting back on the number of days it was open. Not enough people were making reservations. I mean, it’s an awesome concept. You start in a simulation of leaving earth and going to a space cruiser hotel. Then you’re immersed in the setting for a couple of days with people in costume and acting like Star Wars characters with special rooms, food, and adventures.

But, it cost $3,000, per person. Normal people can’t afford that. So, It’s going to close in September. I’m checking to see if there are reduced prices……. Fingers crossed……… and…….. nope. The mouse is going for every last penny.

Anyway, I found a half hour video that a guest made of their visit. It looks kind of fun, but cheesy and the rooms look really small. Maybe, I’ll just wait until Space X puts that commercial station in space in a couple of years. The price can’t be much higher than Disney’s.
