American Airlines Center Accessibility

American Airlines Center runs its premium tier on a Platinum level with its own entrance on the northeast side, admitting only suite and platinum ticket holders. That level carries five bars and restaurants — The Wine Press, The Zone, The Platinum Club, El Taco Tex and DBQ Barbecue — and Platinum Premier seats include parking, in-seat wait service and a $30 per-ticket food and drink credit. Below it the Mavericks bowl runs 100, 200 and 300.

Tips & Fan Reports

Sections 316-319 are awesome for the price. The low 300s center court have a great view too. 225 to 303 is only a marginal improvement despite the price jump.

Courtside seats include dinner at the restaurant inside the arena. You get that friendly fun atmosphere throughout the entire building. OKC fans are the best comparison - just a good time.

VYT Research

Platinum Premier includes parking, in-seat wait service and a $30 per-ticket food and beverage credit, which closes much of the gap to a cheaper seat plus costs.

VYT Research

Admiral Theater Boxes and the Platinum Premier Plus plan both cover Stars AND Mavericks games — 86 games on the full plan, plus concerts.

VYT Research

The Platinum Premier entrance is on the northeast side of the building and admits only suite and platinum ticket holders — everyone else uses the general gates.

These figures are estimates. Most venues no longer publish the numbers behind them — concession and ticket pricing moved to dynamic marketplaces — so we hold them as estimates rather than dating them as verified.
