, so it came out to be just under $1500/person. It's still a splurge for us and we may cancel once the reports/reviews come out from the first few voyages. Not impressed by what we've seen so far. We weren't expecting a one-on-one customized experience or anything necessarily groundbreaking, but so far everything seems sort of like a generic space theme.
I understand and respect the point that you are making, but I would just add that, IMO, when people make any purchase with their hard-earned money they are doing so based on the value they perceive in making that expenditure, a value that is largely driven by their expectations. As more and more info is released regarding this experience and certainly as real guest reviews start to pour in after the first voyages, people will have to decide for themselves if they see value in this experience. That value may come in the form of perceived exclusivity, food offerings, unique character interactions, guest rooms, etc. Maybe the new information/reviews will increase people's expectations and their perceived value or maybe it will yield the opposite result.
Is the price really obscene? A nice room at poly or gf for 2 nights is easy 2k+. Add in meals including 2 nights of supposedly deluxe dining and entertainment plus park tickets. Yes their is a bit of premium but is it obscene in comparison? The previews could be more impressive but the price criticism is overplayed.

Here is a Pantoran, he doesnt look silly at all and to me represents the race and Star Wars universe. Other than blue makeup, the Star Cruiser captain does not represent this race in any way. The hallways of the Star cruiser are squared off giving pause to why the doorways are rounded, this is not the case in the original Star Wars. Perhaps my eye is too detailed and I notice a lot of these types of things giving me the over all feeling that they missed their mark. Maybe it somewhat resembles the later movies, but I prefer the OG universe. I'm happy you are still excited by the Star cruiser and hope others are too as I'd like it to succeed.
Yes the price is bad . I stayed in a nicer rooms in the 4 seasons in Orlando for a better price .
Sure but if you added on all meals at Four Seasons and a couple activities and park tickets, it would be close if not more! 2 nights in April at Four Seasons Orl is currently 4k with fees!
Bad word of mouth could also speed up price drops but that could also mean losing the parts that are valuable and worthwhile
I have no doubt that if this is received poorly and doesn’t keep near full bookings they will cut all the entertainment and such to a bare minimum.
Of course they want your money. Depends on where you want to spend it. I wouldn't buy DVC either, too many rules and limitations but still does seem appealing once in a while when you squint at the math. I would take your $8k to Paris or Hawaii for your honeymoon and do some nice pluses along the way. Luxury rental car (convertible to winery etc.) Come back when the price has dropped or you have kids and you'll see the value again.The reason why I’m canceling the trip is because! Just because. I’ve been coming to Disney since I was young like most of us here . Disney has lost its touch rather quickly….. I’ve dropped 10k+ on many disney trips and I never complained , because I felt and saw the value ! his trip just seems like a bad idea from the start , I shouldn’t have ever booked it especially that it’s only for 2 days . I need to stay somewhere else during my week long vacation.
After doing the math I’m better off going to Europe or a tropical island for the same price .
((Millennial Rant !))
I love Disney , but the VALUE ISN'T there anymore - slowly backing away ( and it’s sad…. Why doesn’t want my money
sure glad I didn’t buy a DVC.
