Going to Qatar 2022: tickets, accommodations, etc. (non-politics)

Well if that is the case then it is dissaponting.

Thanks for the info.

 

The ticketing center is a complete joke. Why the hell does this huge place exist if all they tell you is to buy online. I managed to get in and it's completely empty. Only tickets for sponsors in group sales. Has anyone had luck at the stadium ticket centers.

 

I actually thought I could get M62 tickets today- but asides from a few drops on resale, I haven’t had any luck. It’s not making sense, I really expected at least a little drop on the fcfs portal.

 

i hope that doesn't happen with the final

 

Looks like a lot of Moroccan fans won’t be able to fly in for tonight’s game. Morocco’s main airline being forced to cancel flights to Doha because of Qatari authorities. Good for those looking for tix. But what a sh*tshow.

Also for those with TST+7s, final tix should now be available in ticket app. Should mean things are gearing up for ticket drops and all that fun. Good luck.

 

Qatar authorities must be under pressure of what went off at the Portugal game and know there’s too many Moroccon fans in Doha without another 30 flights coming in

 

How early is everyone getting to Al Bayt later? Any tips or things to look out for? I hope it won't be an atmosphere like Wembley last year...

 

Yeah I got 100s section my tst7cat3. I got argentina side. Guess Ill be standing all game. Lol

 

I think, if you don't have it from tst7, it'll be impossible to find final tickets legit way now that argentina-france will be the final. Why would anyone put them on resale when they can easily sell it for far more profit. At most 1-2 pages drop like 3hrs before and they'll all be uncartable anyways.

 

Dang! Lucky you man. Glad for you.

 

Small update this has caused the area to be scalpers central. The authorities don't care. Ugh I just want to watch football+

 

best option to al bayer? i am thinking uber but i am afraid to be stuck in traffic

 

Uff, I don’t know. If it’s Morocco forget about it. But it’s France I do believe it’ll be hard but not impossible. Demand has been consistently lower than organizers have wanted us to believe. Yesterday’s BS announcement that the stadium was at full capacity for Arg-Cro is another example.

Someone mentioned here that was able to see his final seats on this link even if the TST tickets have not been released:
https://fcfs-intl.fwc22.tickets.fifa.com/account/tickets/seatMap?performanceId=101437163918&productId=101397570845&fileId=3016838
For me it does not seem to work. Any other ideas how to find out where is our seats?

 

I always go to Albayet by uber and cream and never have been stuck because they have their own exit from people who have personal cars. This does not mean that you leave to the stadium 2 hours before kick off. I always prefer to be early and walk around the area rather than getting nervous of any possible traffic jam.

 

Works for me. They released the tst tickets like 2 hours ago

 

I think they only released for the teams were on the Argentina bracket, not the Marocco/France bracket.

 

Don't agree - depends how much experience you have trying to buy tickets.
France Arg will be very possible that's for sure, especially if you are happy with cat 1 or 2. These are expensive tickets and there are not many people left in Doha. M24, M39 were very hard, everyone was here, most people wanted to go to those games and they were less than 100 usd for cat 3 tickets. Fifa has held back final tickets, for sure people will have returned some in the last months but only a handful have appeared...

 

My TST7 is reliant on tonight’s game and hasn’t come through yet so seems to be the case and will be sat at the France/Morocco end.

 

Still looking one ticket France vs Morocco, anyone have spare please DM

 

The difference might be a lot of local Moroccan fans are going this time. It’ll be different. I’m personally taking the express bus. It’s worked out well going to Al Bayt before. Hoping to leave Souq Waqif between 7 and 730 and see what time I get there. The issue with getting there too early is that there’s nothing to do. I’ve already been there several times and I don’t need to revisit the stadium again. If I can, I’ll stop by the McD’s (provided it’s not mobbed by people). Let’s see how it goes.

 

When you arrive McD's, don't go inside the restaurant itself to order, rather go to the drive through area which is ALOT faster and less crowded than inside the restaurant

 

I had this message on November 30th , they said they could not refund me to the original card used ..I have since uploaded a new card and sent them 5 separate emails..I keep getting a standard email to say they'll contact in 5/6 days ...they owe me £1.500

 

Given the shitshow I experienced at the QF, I’m going to try and get there early. I’d rather listen to a podcast on my phone in the empty stadium, than miss kickoff because of the incompetence of police/security
