A lot of news has been released about the upcoming Star Wars hotel in Disney World.
We’ve learned more about the food onboard, debunked some myths about the hotel rooms, and even seen what it’s like to step inside the hotel. We also found an answer to the question “How REAL are the lightsabers on board?” Now we’re answering another very important question for some guests: What happens if you get claustrophobic during your stay?
The Galactic Starcruiser (AKA Star Wars hotel) is a cruise-like experience where guests enter the building and then board a “launch pod” to the starcruiser, which is out in space.
Inside the hotel, there aren’t any windows. These have been replaced with screens that show scenes from space outside, including stars, planets, and other spacecraft.
It’s incredibly immersive, and it’s meant to make guests really feel like they’re out in space. We can see just one problem with that — some guests might get claustrophobic from not stepping outside and get some fresh air and sunlight.
The Starcruiser has a solution to that, though. According to StarWars.com, there is a “climate simulator” on board this ship. Ann Morrow Johnson (executive producer and creative director of this project) said that “It’s really amazing technology from the Star Wars world” that “exactly simulate the climate of the planet we’re visiting on your shore excursion.” There’s a courtyard with “plants collected from other planets where the Halcyon has docked” and “all the sunshine and humidity you can expect” on Batuu. Johnson said, “We’ve got a little garden out there and a simulated roof overhead that is even able to simulate the sky.”
Essentially, there’s an outdoor courtyard at the hotel where guests can go to get some fresh air and sunshine. It’s woven into the story of the Galactic Starcruiser as a “climate simulator” so that you don’t have to break away from the immersion that you’ll find on other parts of the ship.
If you get claustrophobic easily, it might be nice to know that there’s at least one option if you need some sunshine during your stay. And remember that guests at the Starcruiser will also spend some time in Galaxy’s Edge at Hollywood Studios, which is another chance to walk around outside and get some fresh air.
