In-room droid service
D3-09 was something I thought was going to be just a fancy Alexa—but no, the in-room droid is very much a part of your Star Wars story. Sure, you can ask it anything in regards to the accommodations, and it will remind you when you have an activity coming up. What I didn’t expect was that the droid becomes your friend and brings you into the mythology on board. I can imagine that D3 does some amount of explaining for the casual Star Wars fan about why the First Order is suddenly hanging around. For me, I treated D3 in the same way I would have interacted with C-3PO, and in return she made my group feel like a secret band of heroes. At a certain point during my journey, D3 recited gorgeous commitment vows for my partner and I, which were truly unforgettable. So when the baddies took her away I was crushed and vowed revenge—which I got to play out as part of the experience.
