The Freight Queen was one of the classes of starship parked in the Lizil Killik hive's hangar during the Swarm War between the Colony, the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, and the Chiss Ascendancy in 36 ABY. Han Solo and his wife, Leia Organa Solo, in disguise as Lord Rysto and Syrule, were attempting to track down the Jedi Knights turned Joiners Jaina Solo and Zekk, and bring them back from the front lines of the war. While looking for a spot to land in the Lizil hangar, Leia spotted a Freight Queen taking off. That left an empty space behind for another starship to land, though Han and Leia instead decided to land the Swiff, a Dray-class transport that they had borrowed from their old friend Lando Calrissian, in another part of the hangar.
