The vessel Serendipity, previously called the Miss Fortune, was a 1550-LEX yacht under the ownership of Delia Leighton. This yacht included a cantina located within its cargo area and was active on planets including Cyrkon and Jakku. As the Serendipity's cantina saw a great many customers, Leighton employed a Shistavanen bouncer, specifically one named Curtis, to check the identities of those entering.
The junior novel Smuggler's Run: A Han Solo & Chewbacca Adventure, penned by Greg Rucka and released in 2015, marked the initial appearance of the Serendipity.
