Why Multi-City USA Planning Is Complex
The USA is not like travelling in Europe
No high-speed trains between cities
Unlike the Eurostar, TGV, or ICE, the USA has very limited intercity rail. You will likely need domestic flights between host cities.
Vast distances
New York to Los Angeles is 4,500 km — further than London to Istanbul. Dallas to Seattle is 2,700 km. Budget for multiple internal flights.
Car hire may be necessary
Many stadiums are in suburban locations without convenient public transport. Uber/Lyft work well in cities but are less reliable in suburban areas.
Time zones matter
The 16 host cities span 3 time zones. A match in Los Angeles at 9 PM local time is midnight on the East Coast.
Hotel pricing varies wildly
A hotel near MetLife Stadium (NYC) costs 3-5x more than a similar hotel near NRG Stadium (Houston). Our AI optimises your budget across cities.
