Bright suns, Richard. You've come to the right galaxy to get your question answered! So let's go!
Currently, our friends from the U.K. and Ireland cannot book experiences from the
Enchanting Extras Collection, which includes
Savi's Workshop, ahead of their visit. When you land in the United States and have access to the U.S. version of the website, you can search for availability. For the greatest chance of scoring a reservation, I wouldn't wait until you get to the resort. Also, expand your search to any day you're able to do the experience, and keep checking back, as availability may change. Also note that, while not guaranteed, you can check on the day of your visit to see if any same-day availability is open. To do this, I would go straight to the location first thing in the morning to inquire. And when you get right down to it, if you're going to join the Gatherers and build a lightsaber from mysterious parts collected from across the galaxy, a little persistence is certainly worthy of the Force!
Now, I have to ask: have you tried the new Pink Milk at the
Milk Stand? I've tried both the Blue and Green Milks but have not yet had a chance to discover this new concoction. I'm all about new snacks and beverages, and I'm more than happy to spend a few extra credits trying some new ones from a galaxy far, far away. And while not new, the Cold Brew Black Caf at
Kat Saka’s Kettle hits every time. So, if you need a cold pick-me-up while exploring the streets of
Black Spire Outpost in between saving the galaxy from the First Order (or defending the First Order, I don't judge), know that this treat has your back! Just keep your allegiance to yourself. You never know who might be listening on Batuu!
Richard, best wishes for an amazing visit. May the Force be with you as you search for reservations, and may your journey be filled with plenty of adventures (and perhaps a lightsaber or two). If you have any other questions before you make the jump to hyperspace,
feel free to ask me!
’Til the Spires,
Matt
