Philadelphia Offers Free Train Travel for World Cup Fans
Philadelphia has announced that it will provide free train travel for fans attending World Cup matches this summer. This initiative, supported by a partnership with World Cup sponsor Airbnb, will cover journeys on the Broad Street Line from half-time until two hours after the matches. The decision comes amid criticism of high transport costs in other host cities, such as New Jersey, where fans face a $150 round-trip fare to MetLife Stadium. Philadelphia's approach aims to ensure affordable and safe travel for fans, with the city hosting matches featuring Brazil and France, as well as a round-of-16 match on July 4th. Other cities like Kansas City and Dallas have also announced fan-friendly transport pricing.
