The 2-day galactic experience opened to guests on March 1, 2022 after months and months of anticipation. Disney gives guests a totally immersive vacation including a two-night, cruise-style itinerary. Guests will become the hero of their own adventure in an experience that surrounds guests in Star Wars storytelling 24 hours a day!

Guests can choose from different itineraries, have a wide range of dining options, stay in unique guests rooms and interact with plenty of Star Wars characters.

However, the amazing 2-day adventure comes at a high price. Do you think the high price is really worth it?

After the opening of the Star Wars Galactic Star Cruiser, many guests wondered if this 2-day immersive experience was really worth the high price tag?

Bob Chapek shared that Star Cruiser reviews have been “excellent” and that they expect to see “100% utilization” through the end of September.

Looking at availability for this experience at the time of writing, it seems that only a handful of dates are available and many dates from May through July have all been booked. It is pretty clear that despite the high cost, guests are excited and willing to pay for this immersive experience.
