I wonder how much of a disadvantage the 12 PM codeholders will be since the 11 AM ones will take the best seats.

I got my code around 8:45. The only way I can buy my ticket will be via phone so hopefully I don’t have any issues!

Also, tip (though could this have changed w the new seating plan?):
Dress Circle overhangs Orch Row T
Balcony overhangs Dress Circle Row B

Thanks for posting the seating plan, sorano!
If the new configuration matches the old one, I guess this means that the dress circle (if it overhangs Row T) will be pretty far back, and also because the balcony overhangs it at Row B, the dress circle will be fairly dark. Depending on how low the balcony is.

I’m in the 12 time slot but haven’t received my code yet. I hope I get it. For the Hamilton sale there was a glitch and my code wasn’t sent to me. I had to wait for the customer service center to open an tell me my code over the phone. By then many of the good seats were taken

I'm fascinated by the new layout of the theatre which seems to essentially turn the space into a West End house. In the West End, the best seats are almost unquestionably the front rows of the Dress Circle which are usually much more aligned with stage level than the mezzanines of Broadway houses.
Something to keep in mind. Also, there is stuff happening over the audience so - something to keep in mind.
I'd go for those front Dress Circle seats...

If you're buying on a desktop, you can't actually use the link though, right?

LesWickedly said: "Alright, last request. If anyone is planning on going to the show June 13th, 16th, or 17th (all two show days) and would be willing to buy me a ticket, I'll pay you be in full instantly (Venmo or PayPal works), plus $30 extra for your generosity. I only need one ticket. I can pay any of the price points ($199 and below for each part). Please PM me if you'd be willing to do this. This means the world to me and I really can't believe there's a good chance I won't be able to get a ticket. I really hate this program. Tomorrow is going to be very devastating."
LesWickedly, this probably won't help you much but if I get off standby, I'd be happy to pick you up a ticket for June 16 or 17 since those are the only dates I can do all year (not in NY). Just one? I'm only buying 2 so happy to do it if I'm lucky enough to get off standby. I likely will go for the $199s if anything decent is left because my daughter doesn't do balconies... I feel your pain - I knew there wouldn't be any guarantees but I get one Broadway trip next year (I've been lucky enough to come 2-3 times a year in the past but not this year) and this was one of the can't-miss shows on my list.
Feel free to PM me - maybe we can work something out in case one of us gets off standby!

Asking around, again... cause it never hurts to ask... is anyone looking at purchasing tickets for 3/16 and 3/17 (first performances of Part One and Two) and would be willing to help a guy out? I get what the new system is trying to prevent, but it also prevented fans to *maybe* have dibs on tickets; I am on standby. Crossing my fingers for these "new opportunities" for tickets. I wonder if this even will have two separate overnight cancellation line nights for each part, too. Love the new seating arrangement and configuration.

I'm willing to make a deal to go in with someone for the May 26 or 27 shows if I (or you) get a standby code! I'm just buying a single.
Are those what you're looking for, Dave?

There’s 9 months worth of shows on sale. I’m sure everyone will be fine

By the way, right before the HP code swooped into my phone, I received a Hamilton code, "just added"! So I checked that out, but only premium and mid-premium seats were left.

Ok, anyone else have ideas about if the codes are linked to accounts? I was just given one, but like sorano said earlier, they're pretty sure they are account specific.

BEE -- Unless your 7 year old is really mature - this might be over his head. It's rather adult and a little scary. The UK site says the play is recommended for kids 10 and up

I don’t knowing anyone know for sure, would be kind of dumb if they weren’t tied to the account though
