You can re-sell on FIFA platform for 10% loss (ie FIFA fees). Don't believe you can transfer name of the original ticket holder. Guests names can be changed. Obviously there's unofficial ways around this to get your money back. For accomodations its 80% refundable if cancelled by April 30th. After April 30th there's no refund but if they re-sell your room you get the 80% back. Edited March 29, 2022 by theaub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red card Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 FIFA says next phase opens up Tuesday April 5th at 11 CET. Though, it also says it will be a random draw. In the lottery & first come/first served phase, 804,186 tickets were sold. With 64 matches, this means 12,565 average per match + what has been allocated to sponsors and et al. Better than Russia after phase 1 since it was 742,760. Individual Match Tickets – and tickets for the opening and final matches in particular – were the most popular products on offer. The top ten countries by country of residence are Qatar, USA, England, Mexico, UAE, Germany, India, Brazil, Argentina, and Saudi Arabia. https://www.fifa.com/tournaments/mens/worldcup/qatar2022/media-releases/fans-worldwide-snap-up-over-800-000-fifa-world-cup-qatar-2022-tm-tickets-in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our group going has been looking at flights. Boy are the prices going up. I recommend using skyscanner to folks looking around. We want to go to Dublin for a few days before heading over to Qatar. Also for those who haven’t travelled much, going through London tends to provide the most options. The second the draw happens we’re booking our flights. Might even risk it and book before.

The thing is, we won't know the schedule til some time after the draw. They are going to do the schedule based on the participating teams in a match, and try to work the best start time. I am sure I read that somewhere. As opposed to the draw determining location, schedule and matchup. So that affects people who need to book more precisely.

Unless I’m misunderstanding what you’re saying, the second the draw is announced, you’ll know exactly when Canada plays their games. I’ve been looking at prices very closely the last couple days. It’s nuts. I can guarantee the second the draw is announced Friday, people all over the world will be booking their flights instantly. I mean literally seconds after. Don’t kid yourself. We booked tonight. Tickets and hotels will stay the same in price. Airline tickets won’t. I appreciate people need to plan and budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the official FIFA schedule page has no matches associated with dates: https://www.fifa.com/tournaments/mens/worldcup/qatar2022 Well from what I’m reading in the link you provided, it seems to show what day the games are, just not times and locations, which is my original point. This is backed up by the dates and times of the knockout stage with groups A and B meeting first in the round of 16. The writing is small but if you zoom in it’s pretty clear. I suspect many here going aren’t trying to time their flight the day of a game. I can understand FIFA not releasing times/location immediately, but they aren’t going to play Group A, jump to F and then back through C. That would look ridiculous and would make a mockery of the schedule. https://digitalhub.fifa.com/m/2ef762dcf5f577c6/original/Portrait-Master-Template.pdf If Canada was in group C, which according to your link, would mean they play match day 2, they would play the Tuesday.

TGAA_Star Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 But what sucks is going to be the time difference of games especially because you may have to wake up at like 5 or 6am here in Canada just to watch teams play or you would have to watch games late at night here in Canada too to watch teams play. However, for me it really makes no difference because it will all be worth it especially to watch Canada play. But for the ones going to Qatar personally to travel all the way there to watch Canada play, it will be perfect for you guys not only time wise while you're over there but accommodation wise too.

I mean it's the same timezone as the Western side of Russia (2018), only one hour different from South Africa (2010), etc etc... in my opinion the main sadness is we don't get the summer World Cup for those that aren't travelling to Qatar.

Neil R. Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Looks like Canada is playing at 2 of the stadiums in Al Rayyan and the Al Thumama Stadium in Doha. Start practicing your pronunciation of the stadium names and areas around Doha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vancouver Fan Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Next phase for ticket purchases is this Wednesday. Four types of tickets are available: Individual Match Tickets (IMTs), Supporter Tickets (STs), Conditional Supporter Tickets (CSTs), and Four-Stadium Ticket series (FSTs).

red card Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) Stadiums and times have been set for Canada' s matches. All seat 40k which means there won't be any bad seats but it also means it may be harder to get tickets if you haven't done so already. First match is going to be a late night with it starting at 2200 local time. It will be at Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium which is 20km west of central Doha and is reachable by metro. I'm assuming they'll keep it open later than usual. https://www.visitqatar.qa/intl-en/things-to-do/adventures/other-sports-and-activities/ahmad-bin-ali-stadium Second match is at 1900 local time at Khalifa International Stadium. This is a preexisting stadium that has been renovated. It is near Sport City metro station and is 10km west of central Doha. Third match is at 1800 local time at Al Thumama Stadium. Unfortunately, this is the only stadium not reachable by the metro. It's 12km from central Doha and near the airport. Stadiumguide says it is surrounded by a relatively bland residential neighbourhood of little interest. https://www.qatar2022.qa/en/stadiums/al-thumama-stadium Edited April 3, 2022 by red card lowlander, Winnipeg Fury, johnyb and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally had trouble cause the system didn't recognize my ticket application number; so I messaged them through the site and they fixed it for me in 24 hours. Just send them a message and they will sort it out, it seems very well organized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conditional Supporter Tickets are for supporters who want to reserve a seat for one of their team’s potential encounters in the knockout rounds, including the final. johnyb and Vancouver Fan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
