AMERICAN AIRLINES ARENA

The American Airlines Arena, not to be confused with the American Airlines Center located in Dallas or the America West Arena located in Phoenix, is located at 601 Biscyane Boulevard, Miami, FL. The Arena has been the home of the Miami Heat of the National Basketball Association since the 1999 season and is one of the few professional basketball stadiums that is the home of only one team. American Airlines is paying around $2.1 million a year over 20 years for the naming rights of the building with that money joining the funds from the team itself to cover the $175 million needed to cover the cost of construction. The American Airlines Arena has parking available for almost 1,200 cars as well as parking around the arena for others. The average ticket costs less than $40 per ticket and every one of the 20,000 seats at the American Airlines Arena is a great one. Many of the concourses in the American Airlines Arena will give the fan a view of the Miami city skyline and other areas of the arena will give you a view of the bay located nearby. The arena’s aisles move more in an upward direction as opposed to outward so that the fans are closer to the action at all times and 9,600 of the 20,000 seats are located in the lower “bowl” of the arena’s configuration.
