Construction of the new Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel at Disney World is taking shape.
The hotel, scheduled to open in 2021, will offer two-night adventures aboard a “glamorous starship.”
Once onboard, guests will interact with characters and become active participants in stories that unfold around them on their galactic journey. The hotel is built outside of Disney’s Hollywood Studios near Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and the hotel has “transport” areas, where it is assumed guests will be taken from the hotel into Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
The ship will be called the Halycon. For the curious, halcyon is defined as characterized by happiness, great success, and prosperity.
