2 1 Based on feedback from Season Ticket Licensees like you, we are pleased to introduce a state-of-the-art 3-D technology that will allow you to participate in the seat relocation process online instead of over the phone or in person. This unique and interactive tool will provide you with the ability to view and select the best available seats according to your individual preferences directly from your computer. It will also allow you to access available seating anytime after your scheduled appointment, so you can continue to search and relocate your seats for the upcoming season. Access to the online seat relocation tool will be available via your My Yankees Account Manager. We encourage you to take a few moments to read through this instruction manual so you can familiarize yourself with this new process. If you have any questions about using this interactive tool, or do not have access to your My Yankees Account Manager, do not hesitate to contact your dedicated Yankees representative. As always, all potential seats are subject to availability. The Yankees strive to provide an accessible environment for all their Guests at Yankee Stadium. Wheelchair accessible and aisle transfer seats are available at various price points and locations, and include Yankees Premium seat locations. The Stadium also offers enhanced accessibility for Guests with hearing loss or low vision and for Guests who are deaf or blind. For additional information about accessibility at the Stadium or if you have any questions or comments, please contact: Disabled Services: (718) (voice) or (718) (TTY) or disabledservices@yankees.com Let s get started!
