The Aaron Rodgers effect on the Jets continues to be felt – this time for season-ticket holders.
The addition of Rodgers this offseason and his prospective return next season has driven up demand for season tickets and the Jets are raising prices for 2024 a mean of 10 percent.
Also they are requiring season-ticket holders to renew earlier.
They must renew by Nov. 15.
Prior to now, they may wait until the spring to renew their tickets.
The explanation for the value hike and the sooner renewal deadline is the increased demand the Jets have seen for tickets this 12 months.
They’re already fielding requests from fans wanting 2024 season tickets and want to know the way much inventory they may have based on what number of current season-ticket holders plan on renewing for 2024.
That is the third consecutive 12 months the Jets have raised ticket prices after not doing so since 2016.
It’s the fifth time the typical ticket prices went up since MetLife Stadium opened in 2010, however the Jets are still inside 10 percent of the NFL average for ticket prices.
The Jets offer a six-month payment plan for fans with the primary payment due on Nov. 15 or they will pay in full for 2024 on that date.
The early renewal deadline is latest for Jets fans but is getting used by other teams across the NFL.
With the Jets currently at 3-3, some fans surely would like to see how the season plays out before making a choice on 2024.
Nonetheless, even before suffering his Achilles injury in Week 1, Rodgers repeatedly has said that he plans on playing for the Jets beyond 2023.
So, expectations figure to be high again entering next season.
For years, the Jets have struggled to fill MetLife Stadium as they’ve been perennial losers, but that has modified this season.
The Jets haven’t made the playoffs since 2010 and haven’t had a winning season since 2015, resulting in a malaise for much of the past decade.
The trade for Rodgers in April along with a powerful, young core of players led by Quinnen Williams, Sauce Gardner, Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson created quite a lot of buzz entering this season.
“Hard Knocks” featured the Jets this summer and there was talk of being a Super Bowl contender.
That has all been reflected in ticket sales.
The Jets sold out their games with the Bills and Eagles and the secondary market reflects how high the ticket demand is.
Across the complete 2023 season, the secondary market price is 33 percent higher than the typical price the season-ticket holder paid.
For those who take a look at the primary 4 games – the Bills, Patriots, Chiefs and Eagles – the value is 60 percent higher on the secondary market.
Prior to now, there was little value on the secondary marketplace for Jets season-ticket holders. But they now can make cash by reselling their tickets, again increasing the demand.
The Jets’ 2024 home opponents will include their AFC East foes in addition to the Texans, Colts, Rams, Seahawks and an AFC West opponent who finished in the identical spot within the standings because the Jets.
