New York City reduces transportation prices for fans attending World Cup matches it hosts at MetLife Stadium. According to reports, the cost of a round-trip bus ticket from New York City to the stadium is cut from $80 to $20, a reduction of about 75%. The fare change is described as tied to state support for lower match-related transit costs. Financial Times reports the new round-trip price for service to MetLife Stadium. The New York Post adds that New York Gov. Kathy Hochul directs $6 million toward reducing fares, with the funding structure setting aside about 20% of bus tickets for state residents who purchase match tickets. Both accounts describe a substantial discount for ticket holders traveling from New York City to the stadium for World Cup games. The reports do not detail the full eligibility rules beyond the state-resident allocation and do not specify the number of trips or time period covered, but they agree on the scale of the price reduction and the MetLife Stadium destination.
