Many available show options

It was very easy to look at available seating for various shows that will be playing when we will be in New York. We just had to choose between them. So many options!

There was an issue with our flight being delayed three (3) times, meaning we would miss our scheduled show today. The company worked with us to use it later and "Sam" was excellent in communicating back with me and offering a solution. Thank you all so much🫶🏾

Thank you for your review! Three flight delays is an incredibly stressful situation and we're really glad Sam could communicate with you throughout and find a solution that meant you could still see the show. We'll make sure he knows how much it was appreciated. We hope the rescheduled show is everything you're looking forward to!

Excellent service, friendly and reliable customer service.

I received the best service I could have from Marika. My credit card had problems at the time of payment, resulting in a duplicate payment.
I sent the message at night, around 9 pm, and the website's response said they would get back to me. Before 9 am, Marika had already resolved my problem.
I am immensely grateful!
