So every review has been by someone who (checks notes) experienced it. Imagine that!

News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser - Guest reports from March 1 2022
- Thread starter wdwmagic
- Start date
So tell me, arbiter of acceptable reviewers, when can we trust reviews that are coming out?

As soon as one is negative to confirm the preconceived hatred and assumption of failure.
Because you certainly cannot trust anyone, like myself, who went, spent their own money, and legitimately had a wonderful time.

I feel like we could see changes as soon as Q4. Reason being right now you can book openings starting in May with a decent selection from June onward. Disney might have been banking that every Star Wars day cosplayer was willing to drop $2k+ a person for a LARP and are realizing that Star Wars fan and Disney fan venn diagram is not a circle.
Plus I can see them doing rewrites to try out more Mando/Grogu replacing Ray/Kylo with young Luke CG replacing Yoda.

I personally can't justify the cost.... Yet

I would be very surprised if they did not build this in a modular style such that storylines/characters could be swapped out to change the experience enough to justify another trip. (if they originally designed branches were not enough)

They probably did or plan to, but I think its still gonna be a while to give a chance for the first timers go still.
I have to think they would keep the storyline for at least a year; thinking return guests will return at the least once a year.

that would be very cool! Book a trip based on the story line. That would give guests reasons to repeat, and help Disney continue the revenue stream.

IMO, you need to go back and look at previous reviews they've posted and determine if their review matches your experiences. The converging consensus is that they're doing a great job but the experience is overpriced. But, everything they do is. Why should this be any different? At this point, the interesting thing to watch is what the interest tail is at this price point.

Excellent! When are you going back?

OK, I'll play, regardless of the asinine nature of this question.
I'm trying to get a couple of buddies to go with me in the next 9-18 months. And I'm hoping my 7 y/o daughter develops the love for Star Wars that I have, because I'd love to take her when she's about 10.
I'm also actively encouraging some of my more ardent SW fan friends to book trips.
I've been to DW about a dozen times in my 44 years, and DW is not our only vacation spot. So the fact that I will do this again (unless they gut it) to return says a lot.
As I said in my review, I was sad to leave. And for the week or so after I got home, I *literally* dreamt about the trip. It was just so much fun to feel 10 years old again, and I hope, Gimp, that you (and all the other posters who are so desperate for this to fail) have something in your life that makes you feel that way. Because if you're just as bitter and angry as your posts here indicate, I feel sorry for you.

So I have to ask this from people who have experienced it after DH saw blogger had dining interrupted for a story event.
Is this really the case at dinners? Do they give you a decent amount of time to eat? And what are you supposed to do if you haven't finished?

Wow, thanks to everyone who shared their experiences.
Honest question: is there any possibility that the Galactic Starcruiser team speak a language other than Aurebesh and English?
From what I have observed, the fluency of these languages must be absolutely necessary for the experience.

Really good point! Non English speaking folks will not be able to participate without difficulty.

I believe that only happened during the influencer/media event and only to those that were invited to the 5 hour day preview. Many took their drinks with them and left their uneaten food.
Indeed. There's a time blocked off for your meal. If you show up late or spend most of the meal vlogging a review of the food, it's certainly possible that you'll have to chose between finishing your meal or attending the story-event.
But they definitely do not run a story-event at some ol' random time that cuts into a scheduled meal time.

Lukewarm review coming from a fairly popular YouTuber who's on the ship right now so far (read through her thread):
