    Don't bother booking here I paid over £160 for 3 premium tickets called before hand to make sure the seats were available only to be called 2 weeks later to be told I cannot be seated with my 5 year old child who I have told santa is sending him a golden ticket and showed him the movie... I've now got to let down a child and try to explain why santa is no longer sending him a ticket for the polar express
