The only excessively overpriced thing I want to buy is beer. johnyb, mrtoddcan and dhawk11 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadeau Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I'm all set for Qatar! Me and the wife got a room at Barwa Barahat Al Janoub for 740$ US for 6 nights, not too bad really. I did see on a Road to Qatar episode where a spokesman said that they didnt want any price gouging, so we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red card Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 A progress update type article from the NYT. Still not finished building out things. No humans to be seen outside in the heat of the day. Air cooling systems at Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium for intercontinental playoffs dropped temps to 22. I have seen on some threads suggesting to bring a sweater since it was too cool. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/15/sports/soccer/qatar-world-cup-preparations.html?searchResultPosition=1 johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to pay for my tickets as 2 of my buddies just dropped out so I am trying to figure out what to do with those tickets to the Croatia and Morocco games. I had a bud cancel after we got notification of winning the ticket draw, I paid for the tickets as I wanted mine. I will either sell the 3 games when the portal from Fifa opens up, or find someone to take the tickets as I can change the name on the secondary person. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know exactly why they have a process and schedule that is this rigid for ticket sale. It might be related to the fact Aus and CRC just qualified so they might be giving a chance to Aussies and Americans to claim their tickets for the Aus and CRC matches at that WC before those games are sold to visitors supporting other teams johnyb and K-Dub 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red card Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 FIFA says 1.2 million tickets have been sold or 60% of the tickets available ex 1 million allocated to FIFA and sponsors. Of the 3 Canada matches, only Morocco is listed as limited availability. Canada is one of 8 countries that has 2 group stage matches with plenty of availability. https://fcfs-intl.fwc22.tickets.fifa.com/secure/selection/event/date/product/101397570845/lang/en https://worldsoccertalk.com/2022/06/22/world-cup-officials-target-price-gouging-as-1-2m-tickets-sold/ EJsens1, johnyb, maplebanana and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the rest are limited availability. Hopefully there will be a ticket exchange where we can pick up tickets, in addition to trying to buy the few tickets that are left for sale. mrtoddcan and Free kick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the matches involving Canada for which we have purchased advanced tickets, I am still hoping that tickets can be purchased on the day of the game for all the other matches. Just looking at the day after the Can-Bel game (below), i still find it hard to believe that these would all sell out in advance. "Limited Availability" could mean a lot of things.
