Due to high renewal rates among West Coast Eagles members, Reserved Seats rarely become available. This article explains how the Waitlist works, how seats are released, and how offers are made to eligible members.
Why Reserved Seats are limited
- The club experiences very high member renewal rates each season.
- As a result, very few Reserved Seats are relinquished by non-renewing members.
- These limited seats are managed through a seat change and upgrade process.
How seats become available
After current Reserved Seat members have had the chance to change seats:
- Remaining seats are those not selected during the seat change process, or seats vacated by members who moved to different seats.
- These are typically located on Level 5 or in less expensive categories.
How offers are made
Available seats are offered to members with the following packages:
- In The Wings
- Flexi
- Multipass
Offers are made in waves, based on membership tenure:
- Members with the longest consecutive membership receive the first offers.
- Offers continue until all seats are sold or all eligible members have been contacted.
How tenure is calculated
Consecutive years of membership are the key factor in determining priority.
Tenure includes movement between membership types.
- Example: An In The Wings member who switches to a Victorian Gold membership without a break retains their consecutive tenure.
