Post subject: AFL Members Ticketing Details for Friday Night | |
|
So, I tried to snag a couple of reserved seats, as you do. Instead of the now $7.50 plus $2.50 ($10.00) at the MCG, I'm being charged $14.00 plus $3.50. Is this right? Is Etihad more expensive?
Is this 'fully ticketed'? Cos if rather just rock up on the night and stand or find a seat on level 3.
Thanks. _________________ Est. 2002 |

Isn't this because you use a different ticketing agency for Etihad? One uses Ticktek and the other uses Ticketmaster. _________________ How would Siri know when to answer "Hey Siri" unless it is listening in to everything you say? |

yep, etihad is more expensive and uses different ticketing agency.
i'd just scan in on the day or get a free upgrade at the ground.
edit: http://afl.com.au/tickets/venues/etihad
it's a category "a" game so can walk up.

Etihad is different.
If you're an afl member, you need to get them in the presale in February or you miss out.
The $14 ones you got are discounted prices of the actual prices, but generally not the $7 afl members tickets.
They do have the $7 ones. A group of friends get all theirs in the presale. |

I also was stung $14 per ticket and I was reserving 3 seats for my brothers and I.
So we all pay for our membership , I print the tickets myself and still they sucked an extra $42 from my credit card.

The deal with AFL members at Etihad is that they only get access to 3000 reserved seats on the bottom deck unless the game is considered a fully reserved game.
I bought tickets for our group in the pre sale (late Feb, early March?) and got in that area for $7.50 each.
The $14 cost is for reserved seats outside that 3000 seat area but it's still a reduction on what the public have to pay. |

I get that. But why is it $21 for the Bulldogs game? On the same level. _________________ #TEAMBUCKS

Just a guess but I reckon because it's a Pies home game and probably in the highest category of pricing that the AFL in all their dumbness introduced this year. |
