Yes, you read that correctly. Disney has put out a post on the Disney Parks Blog promoting their upcoming Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser face painting. Because that will get the bookings up.
Now when you pay $4,800-$6,000 base to go on the less than two day “voyage” you will now have the option to get a face painting package. They come to your room and you can sit in your room entry area (doorway area) for 30 mins to get your face painted! Probably do it there because they can’t move around the room it’s too cramped.
Starting on May 2nd, guests can add the “Image Design” option on their “cruise” and yes it’s an upcharge. Because of course it is.
Here is what it says on the website:
“IMAGE DESIGN – SPECIES

Our talented “image designers” are ready to create your out-of-this-world look in the style of fan-favorite alien species so iconic to Star Wars. Choose from a selection of eye-catching, face-painted designs for a look that inspires your unique story aboard the Halcyon starcruiser. Plus, appointments are limited, so jump to hyperspace and reserve yours as soon as possible!

To be honest, most of us could do these ourselves with minimal effort or materials:
I have no words.
But good news for those of you going that would want to pay for it!
I do not think this is going to increase the bookings.
