Using the Glauber theory, we calculate reaction cross sections for the deformed halo nucleus ${}^{31}$Ne. To this end, we assume that the ${}^{31}$Ne nucleus takes the ${}^{30}\text{Ne}+n$ structure. To take into account the rotational excitation of the core nucleus ${}^{30}$Ne, we employ the particle-rotor model (PRM). We compare the results to those in the adiabatic limit of PRM, that is, the Nilsson model, and show that the Nilsson model works reasonably well for the reaction cross sections of ${}^{31}$Ne. We also investigate the dependence of the reaction cross sections on the ground-state properties of ${}^{31}$Ne, such as the deformation parameter and the $p$-wave component in the ground-state wave function.
