Bright suns, Barbara!
Welcome to planDisney, the most magical place in the galaxy! I am so glad we received your transmission and that we can help you plan an incredible intergalactic trip for your sons. As a member of the resistance myself, I absolutely love visiting Batuu, and I cannot wait for your boys to experience the force on this beautiful planet.
You are correct that purchasing a one-day ticket is a bit trickier for residents in the United Kingdom. Indeed, UK residents can currently either buy a
Seven-Day or a Fourteen-Day Magic Ticket, which is a bit longer than what you were hoping for. However, this does not mean that there is no way for you to purchase a one-day ticket. Indeed, you can wait and buy the one-day tickets on the US site upon arriving in Florida for your visit. If you need any assistance, you can also
call the reservation center upon your arrival or stop by a ticketing window at any of the four parks or Disney Springs. Cast Members truly are real-life magic-makers, and they will be able to get your sons all set up for their intergalactic trip. Just make sure to
book their theme park reservations as soon as your purchase the tickets, as they can fill up in the weeks preceding your visit!
Once your sons arrive at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, there are so many incredible offerings they can experience to truly immerse themselves in the story! Experiences such as
Savi's Workshop - Handbuilt Lightsabers and the
Droid Depot require reservations, which you can book online or over the phone with a Disney representative. Since Batuu has three suns, a popular tradition is to visit the Milk Stand for a cold glass of Blue or Green milk, but Ronto Roasters and Oga's Cantina also offer delicious non-alcoholic beverages. Speaking of delicious, I highly recommend that they stop by Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo to fuel up before their return to Earth. If they are feeling adventurous, the Outpost Puff has a deliciously rich chocolate mousse that will also surprise you with its slight kick. Of course, I also highly suggest visiting the two popular attractions
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run and
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance.
I hope this was helpful, Barbara, and that your sons will have the best day ever on their visit to Batuu. If you have any other questions in the time leading up to their visit, please don't hesitate to reach out. We are always happy to help fellow Resistance recruits!
Have a magical day and may the force be with you,
Ariane
