News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

This could be really problematic when it actually opens.

Lando: "This deal's getting worse all the time..."

Now you got me picturing Kylo and the storm troopers boarding the cruiser with masks on. Would they wear them on the outside? Or, under their current masks? If the later, how will guests know they're wearing one? And, what about the Wookie????

If you've ever been to a Bucee's store, they have a beaver statue in front. Right now, it's wearing a mask. Pretty funny to see walking up to the store!

I mean, should this REALLY shock anyone?

Hey Bob, we've got 750,000 of the guest's money and no one to unlock the front door, what to do?

The least they could do is add some stormtroopers peeking out behind the bushes Wilson style to add some entertainment value.

Wasn't Disney cracking down on food deliveries because scammers were dropping pizza delivery fliers at room doors as a means of getting people's credit card information? (I could swear I remember reading something about this...)

Yes but they weren't deliveries, they were just people walking in (which is extremely easy to do) and putting flyers under doors. they weren't dressed like delivery people.

Rehearsal voyages were cancelled this week due to COVID staffing shortages.

You don't say

Oh yeah, the whole thing was a scam.

Bushes on wheels - isn't that what Han and Leia hid behind in ROTJ?

If I had to theorize, since this is massively overbuilt for a bus port, I’d assume this hallway eventually leads to a new attraction.

I don't know about Disney resorts, but this was definitely happening at the Nickelodeon Hotel way back when because the Nick Hotel was not a closed hotel; anyone could just walk up to the rooms.

1. That's not one of the designated expansion pads.

2. That would block emergency vehicles' access to the land.

That’s in DHS….

It looks a lot better than the hallways in the actual Starcruiser!

I can see Disney being more strict, but way back when I worked deliveries it seemed like all of the higher end hotels wouldn’t allow deliveries to the rooms. Despite that there was always the occasional “Hello, this is the front desk, your food is here…. Yes… It’s our policy… yes… im very sorry… yes… yes, I apologize, he’ll be right up.”

As someone who orders delivery a lot to nice hotels, its about 50/50 whether the drivers can come right to the room. More often than not the bellman can deliver it. It is rare that a guest has to go down to the lobby, but it is almost always the case at Disney. Particularly the case given that Disney's understaffed bell services leaves something to be desired. Your fresh warm pizza from Dominos will be a cold disc by the time it gets through the bell services queue and someone makes it to your room.

The other issue is that at Disney a lot of the access to the floors/buildings is restricted to guests with valid key cards/magic bands. For example a delivery driver at DAK can't just take the elevator to a room floor.

Obviously this is a non-issue at places like Pop or All Star Resorts where the rooms/stairwells are exposed.

What are the designated expansions pads?
