All the details are outlined below, such as:
- Cost

Galactic Starcruiser Price
“Republic credits are no good out here…”
Whether you’re in the Galactic Capital City on Coruscant or the most wretched hive of scum and villainy, in any Star Wars story you’re gonna have to talk money.
For a cruise on the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Halcyon, the overall cost depends on:
- The dates of your vacation,
- The type of room you want to stay in, and
- The number of people in your group.
Specifically: for two adults and two kids in a standard cabin, a rough total will average $6500 (all-inclusive – give or take merch and any drinks beyond the one that’s included).
It can get down to as low as $750 for a child. But plan on about $1500 per person, give or take what you’d be willing to spend on souvenirs (and you’d better believe there are fun souvenirs *onboard* that aren’t available anywhere else in the world… or, outer space either, for that matter!)
One great way to bring the cost down would be to split the cost of the room. If you get three of your friends together to share a $5,000 room, you’re only looking at $1,250 apiece.
Biggest question: Is it worth it?
Consensus says: Yes! Galactic Starcruiser is absolutely worth the cost.
Even if you’re not a Star Wars super-nerd that remembers the first time you heard Princess Leia say, “I knew there was more to you than money!” you will have an amazing time.

What’s Included On The Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser?
You’ll arrive at the spaceport terminal, board a *launch pod,* and then step through the airlock to the magnificent Halcyon.
From that point on, you’ll have personal instructions and make choices that guide you through four different never-before-seen story tracks, as you explore the most revolutionary, live, detailed, Disney experience of “what if.”
Here’s what you get:
- Food & drink (one alcoholic or nonalcoholic specialty drink included, more may be purchased)

- Mini-fridge
- Interactive TV
- Locking safe
- Bathroom amenities
- Activities & entertainment
- Lightsaber training
- Operating the ship
- Droid racing
- Reception with the ship’s captain
- Sabacc games (lessons available if you’re not Han Solo or Lando Calrissian-level with this card game yet)
- Additional activities for purchase (ie: build a lightsaber, build a droid, sit with the captain at dinner, reservations at Oga’s Cantina off the ship, professional portraits)

What Makes The Galactic Starcruiser Unique
“That’s no moon…”
These awesome extra details are unusual even for Walt Disney World:
- Grown-ups can dress up too! Here are the guidelines.
- If you have your own droid, you can let it roam remote-controlled around the ship.
- The hotel staff is in character too. Although the cast members in the parks provide excellent service, these cast members participate in the magic of your story.
- Whenever you leave your room, you’re going to see an alien or a droid… who is also on vacation. You’re on a pleasure cruiser, after all. While in Disneyland or Walt Disney World you’ll occasionally see characters out and about, on the Halcyon, they’ll be fellow travelers that you can interact with whenever you want to.
According to our insider sources, there’s even a brig onboard… so watch out!
What’s NOT Included On The Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser?
“These aren’t the droids you’re looking for…”
Um… boredom.
Also, no judgment of how you want to participate (or not).
There’s no “wrong way” to have fun!
Come in with fake names and made-up home planets, or just be you – all are welcome.
The stories happening onboard the Halcyon take place during the Rey and Kylo Ren era, but you decide your own story, your own path – even within your own party. You can follow the First Order or you can rise with the Resistance. The choice is yours!
And if you return more than once, you’ll have a completely different experience every time.
Advice For Your Vacation On The Galactic Starcruiser:
- Most people go all-out dressing up for their arrival (you get your picture taken upon entry). You can purchase merchandise, including clothing, at the onboard store but you may want to show up in bespoke apparel honoring your favorite character.
- Purchase clothes in advance from the online Disney shop (order 45+ days before your trip so everything arrives in time and you’re not stuck being scruffy lookin’.
- Don’t feel pressured to dress up if you don’t want to.
- Don’t overpack. There’s always something fun going on and you won’t want to miss it because you’re changing your hair and costume.
- Purchase souvenirs early. The onboard store isn’t open on the last day of your voyage, so if you’ve got your eye on the highly exclusive high-end merch that isn’t offered anywhere else on Disney property (including the adorable Halcyon droid SK-620), don’t leave it to the last minute.
Galactic Starcruiser Cuisine
Amazing it is.
There is one restaurant on the Halcyon: the Crown of Corellia, with divine food that’s known galaxy-wide as essentially out-of-this-world gourmet artwork.
The Crown of Corellia serves buffet breakfasts and lunches, then offers two different seatings for family-style sit-down dinners.
If your group has dietary concerns, the kitchen can easily adjust to your needs with accommodations for everything from picky eaters to those with severe food allergies.
There are even delightful between-meal snacks offered at the Sublight Lounge or the Atrium.
Who’s The Galactic Starcruiser Best For?
“You must do what you feel is right, of course.”
This experience is great for every type of traveler, young or old, in search of an unforgettable experience.
You can have one of the best adventures of your life without even having seen Star Wars.
If you like cosplay, escape rooms, games, or Star Wars, this is a vacation you can’t miss.
