We are staying in Providence too.

Yep, we've booked a proper dive in Providence for two nights around each of the games too. It was waaaaay cheaper than Boston. Then we plan to get as far as possible from the cities and explore New England for a few days in between - imagine/hope that will be more affordable 

[McTeeko]

Fly out on the 10th. Four nights in Boston, four nights in NYC, two nights just outside Boston in a wee place called Dedham, five nights in Miami. No booked return flights yet. Just me and the laddie (aged 14) but toying with the idea of flying the wife out to NYC for the four days as she's never been to USA.

[Squirrelhumper]

Fly out on 9th. 

3 nights in NYC, 10 nights in an Airbnb in Waltham, Boston and 3 nights in Fort Lauderdale. 

Home the day after the Brazil game. 

Anyone need a kidney, one for sale!

Sorry I should have corrected myself. It’s fort lauderdale, an hour away.

[Haggis Jack]

Booked 9 days in Waltham, Boston and then 5 days at a hotel near Miami airport 

[sultan_of_arabia]

Beginning to come together just hope I can pick up tickets for at least 2 of the games. 11 points so may well be via resale. 

In and out to JFK 11-30. In providence until the 20th and picked up a Jetblue flight on Saturday morning to palm beach for 70 quid. A week in Fort Lauderdale. Have myself possibility to attend the round of 32 assuming it's not in Mexico and we are playing of course.

[Craig Fae Hamilton]

We have a cracker of a trip planned. Just the small matter of match tickets (2x 11 Pointers):

11th Edinburgh to Boston: £399

2 Nights in Boston: £100

Day after Game Bus to New York return): £56

4 Nights New York: £377

3 Nights Boston for Morocco Game: £215

Flight to Fort Lauderdale: £156

Week in Air B&B: £538

Scored 4 Tickets for Brazil game in Ticket Lottery (All Accounted for): £55

Booked Flight back from Toronto on 10th July

TOTAL so Far: £2151

12 days still to account for but we have relations in Toronto which helps massively! Plan is to do the 1st KO if not in Mexico. Also the last 16 in Phile if we get there.

WIN GROUP - HOUSTON and doable

RUNNER-UP - Monterrey and we are PUMPED

3rd Placed Qualification 70% Boston JACKPOT. 30% Mexico City and we are PUMPED.

In the PUMPED outcomes we will do New Orleans for a few days then up to see Toronto and Home on the 10th!

Can barely afford it but you can't buy memories!

[Grim Jim]

Glasgow - Dublin - Bus? - Night in hotel at Shannon - Boston.

Same in reverse except no overnight hotel required.

Thought we were getting something relatively cheap, but Aer Lingus add on hold luggage & seats 🫤 , plus routes to Shannon dearer and longer than expected.

If I wasn't out on Saturday, we would have got something simpler for less.

Accommodation were were looking at has gone, so need to look again.   Well stressed out now 😣

[wanderer]

Only doing Haiti and Morocco game and taking the wife.

Out the 11th from Glasgow with BA via Heathrow to JFK, and making NYC our base for the first two games.

Basic plan is up for the Haiti game morning of the match, booked a AirBnB opposite Fenway, and back to NYC the next evening after seeing Boston the day after the game.

Rest of the time will be spent in NYC (going to Yankee's v White Sox on the Tue night) with day trips to DC and Philly in the planning stage.

Morocco game head up to Providence and make way to game from there and back to NYC at first chance after the match.

 

[dan cake]

Edinburgh-Shannon-Boston, 9 nights in Providence. Nothing else at present as holidays from work aren’t guaranteed yet after the 21st

[Grim Jim]

Now splitting accommodation between Salem & Providence for just the first two games.

By the time the match special train gets back to Boston, I fear it will be too late for the onward train (different station?) to Salem.

Anyone looked that far yet?

I think trains stop running about 1.15am on a Saturday night in Boston.

I think you are right mate. I’m now over the panic of all the money I have spent and starting to get excited about how excited he will be!
