I'm giving up my whites but keeping the greens. Last season crushed all the enthusiasm I had after what I hoped was a solid offseason. Last year was painful.

If you click on "completed invoices" you can see last year's renewal.

My pair of oranges went up, $5182 to $5474 for the pair.
My greens were a new set from last summer and didn't go up at all.

That's likely because there's a renewal discount that you get after your first season. It probably cancelled out the increase.

3 oranges and 2 greens. $12,150. They were $11,502 last year.

Kind of glad there was no playoffs now

For a pair of seats in Row 7 of PL13:

2018/2019: $2448.92

2017/2018: $2443.70

There is no mention of the "free" food combo pack that came with the seats previously, so I imagine it is not being offered (at least to me) anymore.

...my desire to return is not very high, especially with no good options to move seats last year. If I could get down into the 200s in a decent spot, I may think about coming back, but right now...meh

Yup, I knew that when I got the greens last year. But both my sets are in premium spots in Green and Orange so it's an easy renew for me.

PL Row 2
17/18 season - $2502.52
18/19 season - $2643.48

~5.6% increase....have been really uncertain if I want to renew this season, with an increase, really going to have to ponder this for a bit. The value of hockey entertainment for me has gone down over the past couple years, so the increase in cost, and the quality of hockey is really making be second guess what I want to do.


sh*t...renew? or not renew??

Still not renewing. Did not (and it would take alot) get value for the money and a $368 increase is not at all what I'm interested in. I'll watch my games for free at home or in bars and not have to wait in line for bathrooms, traffic, uninspired play and overpriced food and beverages! Its been a time in the last 7 years or so but I'm speaking with my money! I wish more would do the same (but not judging)

PL Row 2 - Same increase; 5.6%.

I went back in my emails and looked at my 2011 invoice, the first year we got out of the upper PL rows into PL row 2, and I paid $1918.42. $2643.48 now. Around 5% increase per year.

Given where this franchise is at, on and off the ice and where the average fan is at this is a BIG increase. I was expecting something in the rage of a couple percent, not 5.6%.

On a side note, did Ken kings letter (found here under 'presidents message': http://www.flamesrenewal.com/seasonTickets.html) rub anyone else the wrong way?

not that it would have influenced my decision this go around, as i was already going to cancel, but if i was on the fence, this would probably tip the scales against

how a person can be so wholly, entirely incompetent and tone deaf and yet keep his job boggles my mind
