One movie theatre company is making some changes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Landmark Cinemas, which operates at the New Westminster Station, has announced it is decreasing its capacity of the aditoriums by 50% to “provide social distancing” for customers, said Bill Walker, CEO of Landmark Cinemas Canada.
“As a result, select showtimes are currently non-reserved seating. Reserved seating will be fully reinstated by March 20.”
Here are some other actions taken by the company:
- Increased the frequency of cleaning in common areas including theatre lobbies, door handles, counters & self-serve areas, auditoriums, restroom facilities and other high touch areas.
- Re-enforced strict adherence to the refill policy, requiring a new bag or cup for each refill.
- Provided staff training specifically related to COVID-19 on handwashing best practices, sanitary standards, and safe work practices, requiring staff with any symptoms of any illness to remain at home.
For customers who have purchased tickets online for movies that have been cancelled, including A Quiet Place:Part II, F9 (The Fast and the Furious 9) or Mulan, your purchase will be automatically refunded. For all other refund inquiries, visit landmarkcinemas.com/refunds.
