- "Your Passport to Adventure"
- ―Galaxy Tours slogan
Galaxy Tours was a major starline which operated from before the Clone Wars through the Galactic Civil War.
Galaxy Tours subsidiaries owned a number of the most profitable resorts in the galaxy, including the well-known Nara Parks and Towers of Pantolomin. The travel firm also offered a wide variety of sail barge vacation packages for both businesses and individuals and was a contributing sponsor of the Corporate Sector Authority.
History[]
A few months before the start of the Clone Wars in 22 BBY, the Vice President of the company was Bronwynn Koft. That year, the Senate of the Galactic Republic approved a surtax on passengers traveling via registered starliners such as Galaxy Tours, a decision against which Koft complained.[4] Some time later, the transit tax made it difficult for refugees to reach the galactic capital of Coruscant, at the expense of Galaxy Tours.[5]
Two of the Galaxy Tours cruisers, on Yuga 2 and in the Torch Nebula, were raided by pirate Callow Batta between 1 ABY and 2 ABY.[6]
Sometime during the Galactic Civil War, prior to the Rebel Alliance retaking Coruscant, Galaxy Tours had the Grand Galactic Tour, which involved the Kuari Princess stopping at, in order of the weeks, Tatooine, Endor, Bespin, and Coruscant (at that time known as Imperial City).[3]
