Bright suns, Barbara!
Welcome to planDisney and thanks for cruising over with an excellent Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question. I'm thrilled to hear you'll be spending some time in
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Disney's Hollywood Studios during your upcoming visit. There's no better way to become one with the Force than by crafting your own handbuilt lightsaber during your vacation, Barbara. Happy to assist you, I am!
I understand you're trying to make a reservation at
Savi's Workshop - Handbuilt Lightsabers and you'd like to pay for this experience using Disney Gift Cards. (I love using Disney Gift Cards to pay for my vacation purchases, too!) Unfortunately, the Walt Disney World Resort website requires payment to be made in the form of a valid, accepted credit card at the time of booking. Full payment is required upon arrival at the workshop. Barbara, I checked with a friendly Cast Member who informed me that Guests should be able to use a Disney Gift Card to book this experience over the phone by dialing the
Tours, Recreation phone line. I recommend using the
Disney Gift Card website to combine multiple cards before calling to complete this transaction, if possible!
If you choose to save your Disney Gift Cards for use once you arrive at The Most Magical Place on Earth, why not stop by
Oga's Cantina to celebrate once you've crafted your lightsaber? It's the most popular place to hang out when on Batuu with a menu that offers a brilliantly-themed beverage for anyone and everyone! Just be careful, because I've heard that the First Order sometimes searches the premises... Guests can make dining reservations and Enchanted Extras Collection bookings up to 60 days before your arrival, so I encourage you to book as soon as possible!
Barbara, I hope you've found this information helpful and I wish your travel party an unforgettable trip to Batuu. If you have any additional planning questions, you're always welcome to revisit us here at
planDisney. We're here to help you channel the Force during your Walt Disney World Resort vacations!
