Kuari Princess The Kuari Princess was an " M " - class luxury liner built by the Mon Calamari , and operated by Galaxy Tours during the Galactic Civil War . Characteristics . The " Kuari Princess " was considered one of the greatest triumphs of Mon Calamari shipbuilding , and was the ship which inspired many of the systems used in the development of the MC80 Star Cruiser . It was itself known as an MC80 luxury spaceliner . The ship ' s complement of 850 crewmembers consisted of the captain and ten other officers , plus 500 droids and 329 sentient crewers . The bulk of the organic crew served as stewards and engineers , with most of the remainder being involved in the on - board entertainment . A security detail of sixty troopers were also carried as supernumeraries . There were accommodations for 3 , 500 passengers , with standard facilities for 27 different species . Standard staterooms had two berths , an " en suite " bathroom , and environmental controls that could be tailored to the needs of many different species . Depending on their location aboard the ship , these cost from 50 to 150 credits per night . Deluxe staterooms , with amenities including entertainment and refreshment areas , cost 250 - 450 credits , and there were also two top - line suites costing 1 , 000 credits apiece . During one stage of the ship ' s career , these two suites were identified as the Emperor and Kuari , but another document refers to the Royal Suite as the most luxurious accommodation on board : presumably the Royal and the Emperor were the same suite re - named , but it was not entirely clear in which order the names were used . The primary passenger area was the Lido Deck , which contained much of the standard accommodation ( around 400 staterooms ) , plus the Grand Ballroom , the Grand Dining Room , and the Bistro , one of the ship ' s three secondary dining rooms . The Lido Deck also housed a holovid library with two billion volumes , and the ship ' s main nightclub , Xerrol ' s Place , which boasted a six - piece house glizband , the Graf - Spanners . A specialized nightclub for droids was open to both mechanical crewers and passengers ' servants , and there was a crew lounge , reserved for the liner ' s 400 sentient personnel . Above the Lido Deck was the recreation deck , with fifteen gymnasiums , capable of catering to a wide variety of species , plus a six - lane , multi - gravity running track , a zero - g sauna , wallball courts and a slaf course . The ship also boasted 212 standard and 46 deluxe staterooms , two casinos and another secondary dining room on this level . The uppermost of the public decks was the Bazaar Deck . This was the site of the two luxury suites , along with the the Imperial , the most prestigious of the on - board restaurants , and the Scorp Club , a relaxed , members - only nightclub . Other facilities on this deck included the 900 - seat Estuan Theater , capable of hosting both holo and live performances , two shopping arcades and a more informal bazaar , plus meditation chambers , daycare , and a number of additional amenities and eateries . The Bazaar Deck also contained 224 standard and 36 deluxe staterooms . Below the Lido Deck were the two credicruise decks , the Homthor and Welland decks . Each of these contained 448 standard staterooms and 86 deluxe , plus a small secondary dining room and three snack shops — without the need for impressive public areas , and the ceilings were much lower than the decks above . Below these was the engineering deck , containing the ship ' s drive systems and most of the crew areas , plus the hangar bay . The Galleria Shop was also located on this craft . For defense , the " Kuari Princess " was equipped with ten turbolaser batteries and deflector shields . It also had deck - mounted miniature turbolasers on the recreation deck , for passengers to enjoy space skeet and target shooting at asteroids . History . In the course of its career , the " Kuari Princess " traveled a number of different routes across the galaxy . Perhaps its best - known single voyage was a cruise along the Relgim Run , from Endoraan through Marmoth , Aris and Vykos to Mantooine . Passing through the Maelstrom between Aris and Vykos , it was attacked by the Riders of the Maelstrom , a gang of pirates led by Big Jak Targrim , and rescued by Rebel forces . At another stage , the " Kuari Princess " was offering a four - week cruise calling at Tatooine , Endor , Bespin and Imperial Center . The notorious bounty hunter 4 - LOM was once a valet and human - cyborg relations specialist on the vessel , where his programming was corrupted by his observations of the passengers under his care . The liner ' s fame was such that a sister ship , " Kuari Princess II " , was eventually launched . Behind the scenes . The " Kuari Princess " is depicted in " " and on the back cover of " Riders of the Maelstrom " with a photo of the " Liberty " special - effects model from " " . The intention may have been to identify her as representing the original civilian version of this Mon Calamari Star Cruiser design , later militarized by the Rebel Alliance . However , whereas " Riders of the Maelstrom " specifies that " Kuari Princess " is 500 meters long , subsequent sources have identified the " Liberty " design as a 1200 - meter MC80 Liberty type Star Cruiser . " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " calls her a " MC80 luxury spaceliner " . " Star Wars : The Roleplaying Game , First Edition " also identifies the " Kuari Princess " as an " M - Class luxury liner " , suggesting that she was the same type of ship as the " M " - class liner " Lady of Mindor " in " Han Solo ' s Revenge " . However , " The Star Wars Sourcebook " , released only a few months later , defines " Lady of Mindor " as a ship of a totally different design and origin . The " M " - class designation must therefore refer to a variety of different luxury liner designs .
