Bright Suns, Phil! We're so glad you came to planDisney to ask your question. Building your own custom Lightsaber is almost like a rite of passage when making a visit to Batuu. So let's get to your question and make sure you're able to complete this mission while you're off-planet.
I chatted with a Cast Member who shared that although Guests are encouraged to check for reservations up to 60 days in advance, availability will vary and they do not have a set timeframe (or exact time) for when reservations will be released/published. The best thing to do is to continue to check frequently for availability. As a matter of fact, I just checked both of your desired days and found available times throughout the day for both days. If you haven't already, you can take another look at the
availability for
Savi's Workshop - Handbuilt Lightsabers. Being the great Padawan and Jedi apprentice you are, I imagine you've already done this and have secured your reservation.
Now that you've built your custom Lightsaber, you may not want to carry it around with you all day. My fellow panelist (and member of the Resistance),
Greg L., has some
great tips for storing your precious cargo. While you're in Batuu wandering the Black Spire Outpost, I highly recommend stopping by
Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo for a refreshment - the
Cold Brew Black Caf is my favorite. It's helpful in keeping me awake and alert as
you never know who you might run into.
Phil, I hope this was helpful for your upcoming intergalactic travels while visiting the Happiest Place on Earth. Please come back to visit us with any other questions as you continue to plan.
May the Force be with you!
Michelle
