The Bears on Thursday informed season ticket holders they are not raising the price of season ticket packages following the team’s fourth consecutive double-digit-loss season.

This is the third time in four years that the Bears have kept flat the cost of season ticket packages. The exception during that span was for the 2017 season, which featured increases between 1 and 4 percent depending on the seat location. Those resulted in an average increase of 2.6 percent.

Details about single game ticket pricing will be announced after the 2018 schedule is released in April. Pricing will be dynamic and variable, the team said.

Ted Phillips, team president and CEO, informed season ticket holders of the decision in a letter Thursday. He wrote that the franchise is committed to delivering fans a “premium sports experience.”

“That starts with a winning football team,” Phillips wrote. “That standard has not been met in recent years, and we know your patience has been tested.”

Phillips went on to reiterate the organization’s belief in general manager Ryan Pace’s vision. He referred to the decision to fire coach John Fox and replace him with first-time coach Matt Nagy as bringing in a “fresh voice and new direction.”

In the letter, Phillips also informed season ticket holders they will be able to gain entry to the stadium using their mobile device next season.

Soldier Field, with its capacity of 61,500, is the second-smallest stadium in the NFL behind the Raiders’ Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum (56,057). The Raiders are moving to Las Vegas in 2019 or 2020 and eventually expect to have a new 65,000-seat stadium there.
