How Will Rain and Bad Weather Affect Your US Open Tennis Tickets?

Q. How Will Rain and Bad Weather Affect Your US Open Tennis Tickets?
Raining on the day you have tickets to the US Open ? It's your worst nightmare. You trekked out to Flushing Meadows to see your favorite tennis players, but the rain won't go away. So here's what you do.
A. Rain delays are not uncommon at the US Open in Flushing Meadows, but to get completely rained out of a session, well, that's tough luck. The US Open staff makes every effort to deal with rain, letting the show go on, but in case of an all-day rain, you might end up going home . If the weather looks bad on your US Open day, plan to go to Flushing Meadows regardless. It's likely that the grounds crew will have tennis swinging. If it's a real downpour, check the TV news and US Open.org for announcements. But, seriously, don't chance missing your day at the Open on account of a little moisture.

Buying tickets from a ticket broker for the US open and it rains, what do I do ? First you need to know the sellers policy, many of the best tickets for the US Open are sold as strips, meaning that you have one ticket that is good for that prime seat location to every match. The US Open figures that if you purchased a strip, you won't miss any tennis if its played Tuesday or washday hey you have a ticket for everyday. However, this is where it gets crazy, most brokers buy parts of a strip for tennis fans who want to offset the cost, and for those who can't make 13 days of tennis matches, ... so the ticket broker does not get a refund from the season ticket holders, because the USTA does not give a refund to the season ticket holders. The only tickets that get replaced are the single session tickets that are mostly located upstairs and are far from a desirable ticket. These tickets never sell out ever since they built the huge stadium and therefore the USTA will replace them, most likely giving you a ticket to this years US Open, if there is still time or a ticket to next years Open... once again the USTA has the money, and they really don't want to give the cash back. So please know whom you are buying the tickets from and what the terms of the sale are ... at tixx.com our policy is real simple no refunds no exchanges for any tickets that are in the loge or courtside level, we don't want to charge you for weather insurance and if we were to consider covering the cost for replacing possible rain tickets we would have to raise our prices accross the board for all tennis tickets to cover the fees we would could possibly incur...so pray for good weather at the US open ....there is nothing like a nice day at the US Open a real fun day one i have not missed in nearly 25 years
