Bright suns, Giacomo, and welcome to
planDisney!
Your journey to Batuu will begin in just a few days, and I couldn’t be more excited for you!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is one of my favorite places to visit at Disneyland Park. What a treat to have the chance to become one with the Force as you build a custom lightsaber at
Savi’s Workshop – Handbuilt Lightsabers!
Now, to figure out the best way to get your custom lightsaber safely home to Italy. I recently called the Disneyland Resort’s
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Experiences phone line, and the Cast Member I spoke with had several ideas for how to accomplish this. First, shipping is available after completing your experience at Savi’s Workshop. The Cast Member I spoke with couldn’t confirm if they’re able to ship internationally, but she had a good feeling that they can. So, when purchasing your lightsaber at the register, let the “Gatherer” (Cast Member) know that you’d like to ship the lightsaber home upon completion. When you’re done, a Gatherer will help you box up your lightsaber, and then you can take it to
First Order Cargo (located just around the corner near the First Order TIE echelon), where a Cast Member can assist you with shipping options.
If you’re staying at a
Disneyland Resort Hotel, another option is to ask for assistance with shipping at the Bell Desk of your hotel. Regular shipping and handling fees will apply. The last option is to bring the lightsaber on the plane with you as your carry-on. I’ve heard of Guests storing their lightsaber in the overhead compartment of their airplane. The 31” lightsaber blade can be removed from the hilt (the base) to make this possible. It’s always a good idea to call your airline ahead of time to make sure this option would work for you, though.
I hope this information helps you plan your journey to a galaxy far, far away, Giacomo! Be sure to have some
Blue Milk for me – it’s the perfect refreshment to enjoy after your building experience!
May the Force be with you,
Kristin
