Don't want to be a total pill but once again, the immersiveness will die the second a ton of strollers get parked in the hallways and toddlers are running around!!
yeeeeeh... for this price there should definitely be an age restriction... i'm not saying only adults but like 10 years and up... this is far too expensive to have it ruined by all those things you said... this might be a bust but it's disney and disney world so probably not...
That's my concern as well....I don't want a bunch of screaming toddlers that don't even understand what is going on. but for some reason, their parents pay a mint to take their kids to a hot theme park for an experience they will be too young to appreciate or remember. And...of course all of those families that hate each other but for some reason, all decide to go on vacation together and are miserable the whole time. Ugh, it needs to be for ages 10+
As a huge Star Wars fan this is an experience I've always wanted to have but sadly I probably never will experience it. Disney has just eliminated 1/3 of their Star Wars fan base with this level of pricing. I guess I can add this to joining Club 33, Being a DVC member, and doing a VIP Tour.
I don’t think they every intended this experience to be for the masses. There are only 100 rooms. The all star resorts have almost 4000 rooms alone. Even the most expensive hotel in wdw has almost 900 rooms. I think this was always intended to be a premium experience as you can’t have the intricate storytelling and interactivity at a big scale.
@@OrdinaryAdventures this doesn't soften the blow though.....Star Wars has always been my escape from the real world...and I was stoked that wow I can actually escape for a few days, bring my OC to LIFE....then the pricing was announced and I just wanted to cry
For that price...I want a light saber, a droid, one of those games to take home, a special pin, an outfit, snacks, and all drinks included. I hope they let you film...the first “trip” will be all vloggers🙄
We've already seen that alcohol and specialty drinks are not included in the price. If they follow cruise pricing, photos will also cost, as will souvenirs and premium experiences.
Not to mention, your flight if you aren't local, WDW tickets if you want to spend time in the Parks, hotel for the Park stay, food...yeah its going to be a $20,000 vacation
The price is my best *Darth Vader* voice: *_"Impressive, most impressive."_* or *_"The Force (Price) is strong with this one"_* Fingers Crossed they will allow video capture of this because that s the only way I will be able to go; my pennies is not enough to pay for this.
& you're literally paying that for just a day and a half if you take a good look at the itinerary which is why they seem to emphasize the 2 nights aspect of it more: you arrive in the early afternoon on day 1 (& yes even in space you will need some time to settle into your room & chill a bit before joining the fun), have 1 full day on day 2 then day 3 is an I'm sure quickie breakfast & being shown the door, portal or whatever they want to call it as quickly as possible so they can do a clean up & prep for the next group of guests ASAP.
You are not alone. This is only (responsibly) affordable for a tiny slice of the country right now. Literally 50% of our nationwide community are breathing a LITTLE easier because of the recent 60 day eviction moratorium; they have not been able to pay rent, and debt is at an all time high. My wife and I had to gently break it to our two little Star Wars fans that this is highly unlikely to happen for our family. Awkward. But yeah, we will watch the hell out of others’ videod experiences. The best ones will be fully in character and edited like a film, the way folks do with SW video games and VR experiences that my family has watched on RU-vid. Sadly, there might be some film extras walking around in flip flops and Mickey t-shirts. ;)
@@margaretanglade5293 a land based fake Disney Star Wars cruise... I'm not sure if they missed it, but the Captain's table thing is an extra fee. This is usually the case for specialty restaurants on cruise. However this space cruise scenario may be the reason they see it okay to jack up the prices to such an extreme.
I love how Kitrah is saying we are going to get this and we are going to get that. Oh my dear wait until you see the price. I am sorry but I can go to Europe or a Disney seven night cruise for family of three for the price they are asking
The starcuiser should absolutely have a pool. Think back to the movie Passengers where they have a pool overlooking space up and to all sides. That'd be a cool place to spend the evening.
I could swear in the drawings I saw a year ago, they did have plans for a pool. Wonder if covid, and delays made them scrap it so they could just open it, and make lots of bucks.
I've said that several times and I'd much rather save up and spend that same amount of money on a real 7-day cruise rather than a 2 day pretend cruise.
My dream of going once went out the window, let alone twice. I thought it might be about $1000 a night for the room, for two of us, not per person. This is just a little too much. If they don't have a swimming pool, they should have one of those weightless experiences.
@@OrdinaryAdventures See my comment above..you can have a HECK of a great time in the Zero-G jet. Ron Howard used them for weightless portions of APOLLO 13. For that amount of money, you could have an awesome week's vacation with the Vomit Comet (yes...peeps really do!) and money left over to visit--oh I don't know--maybe Disney World! Again, this all depends on the company. Many of them are based in Florida or California, and others tour the country. I would bet my vintage E-tickets left over from previous trips (from 1967 on--was one of the first to ride PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN which was so cool!) that most folks would enjoy this and consider it worth the expense. There are several companies who do the flights varying in price. Some of them just raised their prices (sadly) and some are more than the $4000. True it is not STAR WARS themed, but it is more like really being in space!
Wow!! I love how everything is exciting and new, and the feeling of "can't wait to see this new adventure" and then the price drops . . . the video takes a silent and melancholy kind of vibe, lol. I absolutely love Kitra's reaction. I live here in Florida just down the street from Orlando and I probably won't be going to this until something is done with that price or discounts are released despite being a huge Boba Fett fan. Thanks for the info though!! Great video guys!!!
They could spend a week there & not give a dam any sports personality could. While normal people will have to scrimp & save & it your like me from the UK you have to pay £500 - £1000 to travel to Disney before you pay for the experience.
That’s a REALLY nice trip to Maui for that price. Remember, that’s for the bare minimum too, it will definitely be higher than what is posted there. But totally a once in a lifetime opportunity.
@@aoielf I bet it was packed with tourists. This is only 200 people in the whole world per 2d/2n stay. If you go you may never meet another person ever who's also been.
I was so excited for this, but super bummed out about the price, I had feeling it wasn’t gonna be cheap.. but good god, this pricing is outrageous.😳 guess I’ll stay with BATUU visits!
They really need to have in-world Star Wars entertainment on the televisions in every cabin. For example: Glactic superstar music videos; "This Old Moisture Farm" home renovation shows; "Keeping Up With Coruscant" reality TV; Reruns of "Little House on the Desert"; "Undercover Emperor" featuring Palpatine; "The Bachelor" featuring Kylo Ren; Holocron Channel specials on galactic history such as The Old Republic; News segments hosted by a panel of aliens & droids; Recruitment promotions for the First Order; Casino ads for Canto Bight. At the very least, they gotta give guests the ability to watch all of the Star Wars franchise films and series for free.
Or they could do something similar like in the show star wars rebels. They should have the imperial propaganda that loops. Like have hux come on the screen and start demanding stuff from the galaxy. Then sometimes the resistance hacks into the feed for a couple of seconds to have secret encoded messages that ties into rise of the resistance.
I will experience this through you both for now, and remain hopeful that one day, who knows. In all honesty, I'd like to go on a Disney cruise first. Crossing my fingers that you get a reservation to stay in the Starcruiser.
We had Secret Cinema: Star Wars in London, an immersive event, which has some of those things, Jedi Training, Sabacc with Lando, secret missions. It feels like an extended, super charged, high end version of that.
I went to this! Tickets were £75 (about $90) and it played like it was worth at least 3 times that... They had a full size x wing, and you could talk to Jawas, Chewie, 3PO and more. Disney could learn a lot.
That’s why it’s called DI$NEY! Sad the average family besides costing a small fortune for the park won’t even be able to afford this! The rich just keep getting richer!
@@OrdinaryAdventuresOkay, yeah im sure there are people who are willing to pay the price to go, and from what I understand there are not that many rooms so it shouldn't be hard to sell out, especially for the first year as everyone is gonna want to be the first to experience it. Im thinking 2, 5, maybe 10 years down the line. Is this just going to be like Cinderella Castle Suites, or maybe even the club 33 of Star Wars, and is that valuable enough for the Parks to run and maintain for that long. It requires full hotel and restaurant staff plus a whole crew of in character cast members. I guess it will come down to the reaction of guests and if they can keep the hype going. I just wont be surprised if they kill the idea or drastically change it in the next 2-5 years.
A friend of mine is a broadway producer. When he sees a stage full of actors/dancers, he always comments how expensive the show must cost. Not to defend this pricing, but it looks like there's a lot of live talent around to enhance the experience. Talent isn't cheap (and worth every cent!) . But what a creepy WESTWORLD echoes. Westworld was only reserved for the super rich.
Every time I look at the concept stuff of what Galaxy's Edge was supposed to be like it makes me so sad. Instead looks like most of that scrapped content got moved into a super exclusive extra cost experience.
Idunno galaxys edge is really special to us. Sure it doesn’t have the aliens and droids on the concept art but most of the magic is still there. It’s great
The difference here is they are paying Broadway stars vs. Disney Cast Members. And we unfortunately all know how little Disney pays their own cast members...
I think this experience will be very cool, but I honestly would not be surprised if this whole thing was disbanded after a year. Seems way overpriced for what you get.
If the most expensive part of this is the staff operations I honestly wonder how low they can get the price and still keep this profitable. Cause ur right, it’ll get old. I can’t imagine too many people will want to do this more than once. They’ll have to reduce it. I hope they pay these cast members well. I know CMs and the pay isn’t always great, so… idk where this will land :/
Well buildings this whole experience I think is costly as well. They will have an epic battle with pieces of the ship falling apart like a big stunt show around you. It’s all very expensive to make and maintain. I don’t think they are planning for repeat visitors, this is a story like a play. There are only 100 rooms and I’m honestly betting when reservations go on sale it will be booked up for months and months because there isn’t much supply of rooms. I don’t think they are counting on the yearly revisits like other resorts.
@@OrdinaryAdventures oh I completely agree on it being booked at the beginning. For years tho? I am not sure unless they switch marketing tactics or decrease price which is where my question of staff cost vs tech cost comes in. This is expensive on both! You need tech staff to run/fix it AND all those actors. Those are some very long term costs. There are many middle-wealthy folks who are fans of Star Wars. I just feel they’ve missed the mark on their marketing a bit. People have been watching the drips of news on this thinking it is an expensive but broadly available family vacay. Your average family will not afford this price. Needs to be marketed to the Broadway/Country Club/Four Seasons level crowd lol. Marketing needs more luxury buzz words in long term. I suspect they will do further marketing on suite cabins for this later to boost sales. Very curious how many suites there will be! It’s Disney, they will figure it out lol
I think if it lives up to the hype like the lightsaber building experience it will be booked for years like that experience. There are only a limited amount of rooms, only 100. The demand just needs to be higher than that at any given time. I think they will be selling this out all year long
That's Hawaii Trip money guys! CHAPEK wants YOUR money in a most drastic way with this Disney Transport Hotel. I f im paying that much money I don't want an itinerary planned all day . I want to do my own thing. Rich people don't want to be told when to do things on a vacation. The rooms are small . If anything it will be a one time thing for most. I don't forsee this experience being done multiple times with families. A total flop this will be. Thanks Chapek!
Kitra's face was all of us earlier today!!!!! The per guest per night realization was mind blowing lmao!! We have to start a support group that matches people into 5 person rooms 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ok, here's how you get your money's worth: You both chose to be Sith Lords. When you get to the Bridge, you take over the ship and fly it back to California! Then you sell off the parts as "junk", cause I know a place called Batuu that buys and sells space junk.....
Wow. They're pricing things so any normal person/family/group and people who don't care for Disney's greedy practices will never do this. They really are money hungry.
This is definitely a wait and see deal. That price is enormous, and with my experience on Disney Cruises, you might get more out of that than this 2-night package. Let's find out what the early travelers have to say about it to see if the price is justified. Also, from what we have to go on so far, if you aren't going to get into the Star Wars story mood, I can't imagine this being worth it vs a really nice and longer stay at a different Disney Resort or the Disney Cruises.
My brain can’t comprehend on the prices just to stay over there. If you’re going with a family of four, that’s $6,000 for three days/two nights! It’s insane! :p
the experience at star wars land was also supposed to be "immersive" I believe the "activities" will be cheesy and not very exciting, only kids may enjoy it.
Hey guys, there's more you need to know: That's weekdays only; you can't get in till 1pm the day of arrival, and have to be out by 9am they day you leave. The room are REALLY small. I mean, they are claustrophobic, especially the so-called bed (more like train bunks). And they have pay walls and extras GALORE. And the free meals are NOT all you can eat.
We said most of that in the video (weekdays, room size, weekdays…etc). I think the room is supposed to be small to feel like you’re on the starship. Reminds me of the Disney cruises we’ve been in so it doesn’t bother us. I actually want to sleep on one of the bunks. We usually travel to Orlando for a trip during the weekdays as hotels and travel is less expensive than weekends.
I get the experience but come one Disney. You need to lower those prices to be more reasonable. That's insane! Or at least include more things we can get in that price.
@@OrdinaryAdventures For each guest, prior to their stay their measurements could be submitted (or just a general sizing due to privacy concerns). When the guests arrive, a set of costumes (one for each of the storylines to be pursued) could be arranged on the beds or hung in a closet. Whenever a guest wears a particular costume, they interact with the elements of that storyline. If you don't wear any of the costumes, they treat you as a general tourist, but perhaps drop nuggets of information to pique your curiosity. And those costumes would be included in your package. Just a thought, at least.
Since I'll never be able to pay the full price to participate in this experience, I'm really looking forward to you both experiencing (and filming) it for us. I'll gladly pitch in to help you guys pay for the extra experiences, if necessary.
Thanks! No need to pitch in, just thanks for watching/subscribing/liking the videos. It helps us tremendously. We have been saving for this for some time, since it was announced at d23. We thought it would be $3000-4000, we were a little off but not by a ton. We will make it happen. Now let’s see if we can get a reservation. That will be hard as there are only 100 cabins
Thank you for the review and brake down. It's interesting that that it says 2 days, but that sample itinerary says 1pm for day 1 check-in. It seems more like 1.5 days and 2 nights, anyone else think so? 🤷
Kitra's expression was just perfect. I know VERY FEW (MAYBE NO ONE?) who would even consider doing this. AND, I would much rather encourage people to give to charity than to do this.
I'd love to experience this, but this is waaaayyyy overpriced. This is literally several months' rent, lol. And i agree, there are people that need the money more than Disney.
:( Disney has lost their minds!!!!!!!! They are teasing really cool stufffor fans, and yet they make it so expensive that only the "rich" can really afford to do these things. I was so hopeful that I could do this with my family, and now.....yeah, guess we will never get to go.
More and More, I am feeling like this is The Hunger Games, and The Disney Parks are in District One.. Want a ticket for Rise? May the odds be ever in your favor.....
Here's the thing- you don't even get 48 hours. You check in on day 1 and it doesn't open till 1- then there's a few things shuffling you around, then you go to bed by 9? Then up for breakfast and excursion in the morning, shuffle around batuu (you're leaving the ship so even less time on the ship) and back to the ship, another early night, another up in the morning and you're kicked out before 1. This is just too much for relatively little. Then again you get a boarding pass for Rise, so what is that worth? :)
In the description it says 2 lunches. So one is on Batuu, but what day is the other? There is only 1 full day. Day 1 you arrive after lunch and day 3 you leave after breakfast. Also, the itinerary only mentions 1 lunch,
The price includes one ticket to the park, but the itinerary includes the 2 rides food and back to the ship. Doesn’t even include time to build a lightsaber. At that price I wish it included a second ticket to go back to the park on your own time to experience what was missed.
It looks fabulous!!! I was excited just hearing about this opportunity…..but once again it seems to be for the well to do. Congratulations to all of them! ENJOY❤️ Hopefully you guys will be able to go and share with us when you have an opportunity to visit. I will watch all your ads on your vlogs to help support your efforts !!!😁 I would have to say for me, as MUCH as I would LOVE to experience this. ( even at my age) A full vacation at Disney seem to be a wiser choice, if I’m going to spend that much money. A Star Wars lover’s dream and experience. It is!!Shoot! Maybe I will win the lottery 🤣😂 another dream. Thanks for the information! You guys are quick with new information ❤️
Wow! I so want to go, but will probably have to live vicariously through you two. I am a bit disappointed that there is nothing on day three. For that price, there should be more.
They should make it three nights, because, like you said, arrive day one in the afternoon, one full day, then yeet you into space after breakfast, on day three. To me that doesn't count as a day. So you really get just 1 1/2 days. Not much time to get into it properly for that price.
@Tom Somhairle that's so crazy for that price. It seems super cool, and I really do want to go and play Star Wars, but I will never be able to afford that. Going to be a lot of sad SW fans. Maybe the price will come down... 🤣
Be honest they could change $10 grand a night and there are enough people out there who would pay for it. I have a feeling even at this price point I’ll be watching a video of you two reviewing this amazing trip I’ll never be able to afford
I don’t think it would sell out at $10k a room but Disney did extensive surveys years ago before this was officially announced. Screenshots of those surveys got online and I’m pretty sure Disney has a very good indication of how much people are willing to pay for this experience. Back then I think they were hoping for $3300 per passenger for a two passenger room.
@@OrdinaryAdventures Maybe…The price would have to come WAY down before it would be worth it to me. The concept is great, but too much $$$ for me, at least.
Galactic Starcruiser looks Great!.. But sadly is something only the Disney elites with access to those empirical fund$$ will get the opportunity to do a family of 4 is 6,000 for two days?!! .. Even this Sith Lord senses a disturbance in the force , and foresees a rebellion arising way to go Disney with a slow clap 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😂
Interested in watching the two of you sit and experience the captain's table! My only question is will the starcruiser offer the two of you the special drinks currently served at Oga's Cantina in Galaxy's Edge giving you more time than 45 minutes?
I assume they will have some of the same drinks but I think we’d want to get the drinks that are unique to the Starcruiser as we wouldn’t have too much time there
Is the voyage total per night as well or is it just per person? If so I'm gonna need a drink and have a voice recording of Palpatine saying " Dew it" before booking it lol. Oh, and I'm gonna have to win the lottery lol.
I am bringing my family of 6 to Disney in 2023 and I was going to do this with them. The price for my family would be crazy and unrealistic that it would happen. Like most families I’m sure.
The wallet is hurting just looking at the price. Almost 5 grand for 2 people?!?! Disney, chill out with your prices. The worst part is that this will probably be in high demand due to the limited space so prices will only go up
Second, what do you thing would be a "fair" price for something like this, now knowing everything you get (and also knowing the "windows into space" are just LCD screens, not TVs on the wall? $1000/person/night, $800/person/night, or $600/person/night?
$4,809 BEFORE Taxes and Fees during a weekday and only a basic Cabin. For a Family of four it will be $8,000 if you include Airfare and Souvenirs and/or Costumes.
I wonder if you are an employee family member if there is a discount. I about spit out my delicious Mexican Coca-Cola...real cane sugar! when I heard about the prices and just over two days, I was shocked (well maybe I shouldn't be knowing Disney parks. For LESS than that, you can book a ride in a "Vomit Comet" jet that is completely padded inside and it flies parabolic arcs and you are just as weightless as the group of wealthy peeps and their friends (who are NOT astronauts). You are weightless far longer. I have been weightless flying PAs in a regular single-engine aircraft (and I am REALLY good at it.)! You loosen your seatbelt and you float off the seat and anything in the cabin floats all over..just a short time, but the jet experience is incredible. I believe you get to keep your jumpsuit, patches, and cap. The Galactic Starcruiser experience should let you keep your outfit. Maybe after hearing from ER reports st hospitals around the world, of peeps passing out and having cardiac arrests over the cost, they will lower the price...yeah, I know, I am dreaming! Well technically, I have already been in space many times..just as real as this. I worked in STAR TREK- THE MOTION PICTURE as a science officer. Sadly, I didn't get to keep my uniform, but have some amazing photos from the ship and with the crew...and I got paid to do it! I have not been to DW for a while. Was in DL not too long ago. I love theme parks, especially the ones with the humongous coasters. Perhaps later on they will have mercy on us middle-class Disney fans and lower the prices...oh, but wait. Now I am really AM a dreamer! LOL! :-)
Been to Orlando over a dozen times. I have always defended park prices because Disney and Universal put on a great show! But... this is asinine. It will probably sell out for a while though. I do not see the pricing lasting long term, though. 😎
@@OrdinaryAdventures I did not realize there were only 100 rooms. Yeah, definitely meant to be uber-premium. And I am sure it will sell out for a while. I am not the target demographic... 😎
