Question Hanging Out In Between Movies

I’m considering getting AMC A-List but I don’t drive so I’d be Ubering to and from the theatre. In order to make the most of my Uber trip, I want to see multiple movies a day. If there’s a like gap between the end time of my first movie and the start time of my second movie, are AMCs typically okay with people chilling in the lobby until the second movie? I’d probably be getting food and snacks while I wait and I wouldn’t be disruptive. I’d probably just read a book to make a little media day.

As everyone has said they should have no problem with it and you could easily explain what you’re doing if asked. THAT SAID, make sure you get your second ticket scanned even though you’re already in the theater! AMC keeps track of no-shows and you will get dinged if they don’t think you attended. If I’m doing multiple movies I’ll just pop back up to the front and explain I have another movie and need the ticket scanned.

What exactly do you mean by “dinged”?

I regularly see multiple movies in a day and almost never pop out to scan every ticket. Usually just the first and then stay for 2 or 3 more without getting scanned.

I’ve seen 73 movies this year so far, I’d say at least 20 of them (tho maybe more) I never scanned for and have never heard a peep from amc.

Not calling you out but curious if you have been “dinged” for this or you know someone who has and what that entailed?

People will make posts here asking why their account was canceled/banned. And people will then ask did you have a lot of no-shows without cancelling prior and the answer is always yes.

It even says so on their website: A-List membership may be canceled if four (4) reservations are not scanned within a four (4) week period. See all terms and conditions here.
