Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Bianca. I'm so glad you stopped by! I'm happy to help you plan your upcoming visit to the
Walt Disney World Resort.
Building a custom lightsaber at Savi's Workshop is a must-do experience for any
Star Wars fan. My young Padawan had a chance to work with The Gatherers to build his lightsaber a few years ago, and he loved every forced-filled moment! I understand your concern about getting your son's lightsaber home. Unfortunately, international shipping is not available from the Walt Disney World Resort at this time. I still encourage you to ask one of The Gatherers about it while you're at Savi's Workshop in case international shipping is again offered by the time you visit. Otherwise, I can tell you that my son had no trouble flying with his lightsaber. It certainly didn't fit in his suitcase, but he was able to take it through security and onto our flight as his "personal item." It easily fit in the overhead bins and the carrying case that came with the lightsaber kept it well-protected on our journey home.
Be sure to take advantage of the unique photo opportunities throughout
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge after your son leaves Savi's Workshop with his new lightsaber. The
Disney PhotoPass Photographers are skilled in setting up the perfect shot!
I hope this was helpful, Bianca. Please let us know if you have any other questions about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! We'd love to help you plan a magical stay.
