Football supporters are expressing strong dissatisfaction over a sharp increase in public transport fares leading up to the FIFA World Cup 2026 in the USA. New Jersey transit plans to charge over $100 for a trip from Penn Station to MetLife Stadium, a significant jump from the usual $12.90. Boston also sees a fourfold increase in fares to Gillette Stadium. French supporters' group spokesperson Guillaume Aupretre called the hikes excessive and burdensome, contrasting it with previous tournaments where transport costs were included or discounted. US Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer urged FIFA to cover public transport costs, while New York Governor Kathy Hochul questioned the steep increases. Despite high operational costs for the event, some cities like Los Angeles have pledged to maintain current fares.
