Guests at Disney World 'Star Wars' hotel will cruise into space
It's going to be a cruise to nowhere, but that will be just fine with die-hard Star Wars fans. Disney officials on Tuesday offered new details on its recently announced Star Wars-themed resort in Florida. "Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser" will be like a two-day cruise in that it drops visitors into a completely self-contained world. Except instead of traveling on the high seas, visitors will be made to feel like they've been launched from a parking lot at Walt Disney World in Florida to a spaceship millions of miles above Earth.
