The Walt Disney Company has made a huge business out of creating fantasy-filled theme parks and kingdoms around the world that attract millions of visitors every year.<\/p>\n
The entertainment giant now plans to transform a patch of its Orlando resort into a new type of luxury-meets-immersion hotel meant to feel more like a galaxy far, far away.<\/p>\n
In a declaration a month ago at the fan event D23 Expo, Walt Disney Parks, and Resorts Chairman Bob Chapek reported that the organization is arranging a \u201crevolutionary vacation experience\u201d for Walt Disney World: an extravagance resort that inundates visitors in the universe of Star Wars.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s unlike anything that exists today,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Chapek said visitors will have a \u201cdedicated multi-day adventure\u201d complete with \u201cstarship transportation,\u201d characters, costumes, storylines, windows that show a view into space, and status as \u201can active citizen of the galaxy.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is 100 percent immersive and the story will touch every single minute of your stay with us,\u201d he said. \u201cIt culminates in a unique journey for every person who visits.\u201d<\/p>\n
Of course, the declaration has lead fans \u2014 and numerous authors \u2014 to swoon. HuffPost ran a story with this feature: \u201cHold up, This \u201cImmersive\u201d \u2018Star Wars\u2019- Themed Hotel Looks Awesome.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert Niles, author, and editorial manager of Theme Park Insider, said that while the organization had plenty of declarations at the occasion a month ago, few of them were pivotal. The Star Wars hotel stood out.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is why I think so many people are really excited and intrigued by this concept,\u201d he said. \u201cIt truly is something different for Disney.\u201d<\/p>\n
Guests would be able to choose if they wanted to watch or participate in a story, and would have themed activities to participate in. Meals, entertainment, admission to a new Star Wars-themed land at Disney Hollywood Studios, and the service of a robotic droid butler would all be included at a price of $900-$1,000 per guest, the story said.<\/p>\n
All of the employees (or \u2018cast members\u2019, in Disney Park lingo) will be in costume and in character<\/p>\n
Each guest will get a storyline, which Disney specifically says will \u201ctouch every single minute of your day\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s meant to take place on a space ship; \u2018windows\u2019 will only show space.<\/p>\n
Disney has made colossal moves with the licensed innovation \u2014 IP in industry speech \u2014 of Lucasfilm, which the organization purchased in 2012 for more than $4 billion. Notwithstanding making more Star Wars motion pictures, Disney is building 14-section of land themed increments called Star Wars: Galaxy\u2019s Edge at parks in Orlando and Anaheim, California. Those terrains open in 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
