No, no word yet. I have booked flights and just hoping for the best ticket-wise.

Flights cost me around E1,500. So they aren't exactly cheap. Fares seem to have doubled since I last went over there in 2018. You would be doing well to get anything for under E1,200, although you could easily pay in excess of E2,000 with Emirates for short connections.

When I went down to Australia in 2005 (I think) I booked flights through Trailfinders. They advised us that it was a lot cheaper if our chosen flights circumnavigated the entire globe as a few of the Airlines offered deals if doing that when using the airlines within their group. We flew over the Americas and back over the Asias.It was a little different for us as we were travelling to NZ and China as well but I suppose the point I'm making is that it may be worth giving Trailfinders a call.

Got 4 category 3 for Sydney. Fairly uncomplicated process to be fair.

Got tickets for each group game as well. Pretty easy process in fairness.

Bought tickets for the Australia game in Sydney and the Canada game in Perth.
If anyone wants tickets for Nigeria in Brisbane - let me know.

Trailfinders are one of the best if you want to do stopovers in other countries for a few nights. I booked directly with Emirates - 2 hour stopovers each way.

This fixture should have been hosted at a larger venue anyway.

Australia were always going to be playing in the first Australian based game of the world cup and I'm fairly sure there were deals in place to ensure this was played at Allianz due to it being a new stadium and massively funded by the NSW government. And I doubt the Australians would want to play outside of Sydney for their first game.

Regardless of capacity, getting 1,700 tickets or 4% of the total is beyond a joke. How did FIFA sanction that?

There is still talk of moving the game to Stadium Australia which holds approx 80K. It is in the local press. 4% is a very low allocation. Our game v Australia is the hardest ticket in the whole tournament and was unavailable very early in both sales phases (the ones after the draw) when the final was still on general sale. Many tickets were sold before the draw as team packages and stadium packages where local fans could buy the Australia games.

Is there anybody actually not able to get tickets? Reading a lot of complaining online about the allocation but not necessarily that people can't get tickets.
I was able to get Irish friends in Australia (who have never been to a football game in their lives) sorted via the FAI codes. |

There are definitely loads looking. The Australia game sold out quickly in every case even for those with codes. The women's team have quite a few fans that mainly just watch the women. So they wouldn't have season tickets and maybe not even that accustomed to buying too far in advance. Apart from Finland home you could have rocked up on the day for any of our qualifiers. I know of somebody who put spares up on facebook groups and they were snapped up in minutes.

When did the Australia game go on sale? There were definitely tickets available via FAI codes on December 16th and I didn't think we were that quick out of the blocks.
Hopefully anybody still looking gets sorted, Oz is a fair trek if you don't have tickets sorted. Big Irish presence over there might help.

There were 2 public sales after the draw. 1) A VISA pre-sale in October which was something like 3am our time. I stayed up and all games were easy apart from our game v Oz. I won't be there for the final (unless we make it) but could have easily bought it. The Canada game was one of the first to sell-out. 2) The regular public sale at the end of October. Again the Oz game was the hardest ticket. As you say then the FAI sale with codes where it was possible to buy the Australia game. However friends who were a bit slow off the mark said there were none available the following day. I bought mine maybe an hour or so after the email so they didn't sell-out immediately.
