Ticket sales are slightly hilarious. You cannot digitally convert a gift voucher to a ticket. No problem, we make it a trip to Brussels.
The staff is instructed to work efficiently: do not speak three words if you can do it with two words. Two words in a language that shows some resemblance to our Flemish national language.
With our gift voucher we request two tickets for an opera in February 2020.
"Subscription?" No, we don't have that.
"Can not". It appears that we cannot buy single tickets before 09/01/2020. Oops, our gift voucher has expired. No problem, that voucher is extended until 09/01/2020 and there will then be no more tickets. Only with subscription. The conciseness of the staff is really impressive.
Fortunately, there is a subscriber, who finds this too crazy, and suggests that he will buy two tickets with our gift voucher. Thank you very much!!
The management of De Munt: you can be proud of the friendliness and efficiency with which your customers are approached !!
