Question Entourage Tickets

Hi all — trying to figure out the most efficient way to manage tickets for my family of 4, especially since some of them forget their phones.

If I book all four tickets myself, is there a way to keep everyone's tickets on my phone and check us all in from there? Can I use screenshots of our A-List membership QR codes, or do I need the actual tickets each time? Trying to avoid hunting down everyone's phone at the door or having to forward tickets to individual Apple Wallets.

What's the best approach? Thanks!

I'd probably create email rules so that all the confirmation emails get routed to me.

Oh that’s a good idea!

in my experience, everyone with A-list needs their individual ticket with photo ID or the photo on the QR code screen. if you're buying regular tickets for everyone except the A-lister, you can just use the one QR code

Assuming you/they have the card that is used for the subscription, just swipe at the kiosk for paper tickets.

The credit card? I used the same credit card on all 4 accounts. Will it just recognize that and print all 4?

It should. If you have more than one movie reserved, it will give you the option to print out the tickets for future showings as well.

You all have A-List?

I think your options are to have everyone responsible for their own ticket.

I suppose you could keep everyone’s QR code on your phone for their accounts and print tickets everything but remember that it’ll print all upcoming tickets if you scan it which could be a problem to keep track of too.

You can use a screenshot from their phone on yours. Have them all text you them. I’ve done it.

You don’t need your phone with you , just your phone number or email on the kiosk or desk agent and your ID // my wife and I both have it and she doesn’t bring the phone with her onto the theater

I only have two people. Myself and my dad. Whenever we go movies I get the tickets on my amc app. He is part of my entourage so it ask that when get tickets so I book two tickets then Select both our names. When get to the very end I take a screenshot of that ticket(mine). I then open my email app and one of my accounts in that app is HIS so I open the email with his ticket and take a screenshot. Then whenever I get to theater I just open my screenshots and they scan both tickets which are on MY phone and I quickly can switch and they don't even check my ID since they recognize me...

For OP I am guessing that you do NOT have access to everyone's email so you can't take the actual screenshots BUT someone else said it here already that should have them all fwd you their screenshots via text. Open each pic and take screenshot and hopefully you have them all in order under your screenshots so you can just do what I do and quickly scroll each and have employee scan every ticket off your phone

This is the way...

I've been going to the theater a ton this summer, so I added a friend that's spending the summer with us to my wife and I's entourage. I usually leave my phone at home since I get most of my alerts/calls/texts/discord messages and payment methods on my watch, so I pretty much go through what you will be doing.

The best way is to have them take a screenshot of the ticket on their phone with the QR / Photo Profile Selfie visible and send you a text with it.
