You would choke on the prices here. A saver session is $33 per ticket before fees. If you’re a member it’s $32 before fees. Theses are sessions they put on when the majority are at work. A late night session is still $27.
Want gold class? $47 per ticket before fees.
These cinemas are fully automated with no floor staff with exceptions for food sales, and even then they just refill only (checkouts are self serve.) You can book online and pay a service fee or purchase in person from a kiosk device and guess what? Service fees. $6 per ticket online or in person.
I don’t actually know what the service fee is for.
Food is eye watering expensive to the point we bring our own. There’s no staff to say you can’t, but it’s buried in the fine print of the T&Cs.
Ouch that is insane! I did learn from friends that online ticket purchases here do involve a service fee which seems not right for something that's completely automated, but my membership waives it so sometime I buy tickets for them and they pay me back.
Food is not worth it here also. I could buy dinner at a restaurant for less than the price of a couple of popcorn and drinks, and that's what my wife and I wind up doing before a movie. Last time, we went to a restaurant near the cinema and I mentioned to the waitress we were seeing Dune next. She said "Oh, we have a points thing we do towards free tickets! Let me set you up." So now we have even less incentive to do the popcorn thing.
