You planning to visit practice sessions ww?
We'll probably try to do that on the Saturday morning. Friday is going to be a mad dash from airport to hotel to )2 and hopefully not miss too much play. And after all the help on here have actually got booked at Crowne Plaza Docklands. Next is flights - but hoping to butter up boss to wangle an early doors so I can book an earlier flight.

Hi Ruthie, I managed to get two tier 1 tickets this morning for the Thursday. I did want to buy full day , but couldn't get that in Tier 1 so ended up getting afternoon tickets on Tier 1 and evening tickets in Tier 4, and pretty good seats too. I have been on again to check tickets and there are still plenty available for Thursday.
Thanks Angie. Turned out she didn't think to try separate tickets for afternoon and evening. I realised last year that if you book the cheaper combined ticket your options are much more limited.

When do they practice prodigy? Would you know before What times Andy is? Or is it pot luck....
Last year, they had a schedule up on the wall of the practise area, but the dining area is next to it so players are coming and going at various times. I got a fair few pictures with players last year and hope to get more this year.

I just got cheap tickets for level 4 this year, as I could upgrade my tickets last year for free at the venue on every day except the final.
Enjoyed the final in November, but I'm not going to the final this year. Just have tickets for all day Tuesday and Friday, and the afternoon of Thursday. Guaranteed to see at least one Andy Murray match. I may well try to buy another ticket the week of the finals to see another AM match.

How does that work?

Just go to the Information kiosk on level 4 and ask if they have any spare seats downstairs. They want to fill them for the cameras. I ended up in the third row for Andy v Nole last year. They are never completely sold out for the RR matches. Doesn't work for the final though (and I imagine the semi-final either).

That's also good info for me as I have tickets for wed evening and Fri afternoon so if Andy isn't playing any of them I was hoping to maybe pick some up for the Thursday while I'm down there. Ideally though I'm hoping he's playing one of the sessions I've already paid for

Excellent info! Must remember this at the time! Cheers.

Cheers for that. All my seats this year are on the lower tier, but I might need to know in future.
