Alternative Ways to Plan Your Trip

The bundled Qatar Airways Holidays product may be sold out, but two official ticket routes and a DIY travel route can still get you to a FIFA World Cup 2026 match.

1. Buy Match Tickets Through FIFA’s Official Resale

FIFA.com/tickets is FIFA’s official ticketing hub, including the Resale/Exchange Marketplace for eligible Single Match Tickets when other fans list them. Availability is not guaranteed.

How it works:

Create or sign in to your FIFA Ticketing account and complete the required personal details.
Search by match, host city or stage and add tickets to your cart.
Pay through FIFA’s portal — tickets are delivered as mobile tickets via the FWC2026 Mobile Tickets app.

Avoid third-party scalper sites. FIFA warns that tickets bought outside its official channels may be fake, invalid or rejected at stadium gates.

2. Book a FIFA Official Hospitality Package

FIFA Hospitality is a separate product from the Qatar Airways travel bundle. It guarantees a premium match experience — but flights and hotels are not included, so you book those yourself.

Hospitality packages typically include:

Category 1 or premium seating, often in prime central areas.
Pre-match and post-match lounge access.
In-stadium dining and beverages.
Dedicated stadium entry and concierge service.

Book through FIFA’s official hospitality programme. Prices vary by match — the final, semi-finals and opening fixtures carry the steepest premiums.

3. Build a DIY Trip — Flights, Hotel and Ticket Separately

The cheapest route is often DIY: book each leg of the trip yourself. Wherever you’re flying from — India, the GCC, Southeast Asia or beyond — multiple carriers and connection hubs serve the US and Canadian host cities.

Qatar Airways runs non-stop from Doha to most US host cities, but European, Gulf and Asian carriers also offer competitive itineraries to New York JFK, Los Angeles, Miami, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta and Toronto.

Build the trip in three steps:

Book your flight to the host city on Wego — compare carriers and connection hubs from your home airport.
Reserve a hotel in your host city — New York, Los Angeles, Miami or Mexico City.
Buy the match ticket via FIFA’s official resale or Hospitality.

Match-week hotel rates rise sharply — sometimes three to five times the off-tournament rate. Book accommodation as early as you can.

Beyond these three routes, Qatar Airways’ sold-out page recommends signing up to its newsletter if package availability changes. You can also contact Qatar Airways Holidays on +974 4144 5544 for package enquiries; the official page does not list a formal waitlist.

Here’s What Fans Can Do Next

A short playbook for putting the trip together yourself:

Lock in your match. Check the full FIFA fixture list at fifa.com. Your match determines host city, dates and how much flight and hotel inventory you’ll find.
Secure the match ticket first. Without it, flights and hotels are wasted. Try FIFA’s official resale before Hospitality.
Book flights to the host city next. Multiple carriers serve the US and Canadian host cities from India, the GCC and Southeast Asia — compare fares and connection hubs on Wego.
Reserve accommodation early. Hotel rates in host cities spike as match days approach.
Plan match-day transit. Check the official match-day transport plan for your venue: LA Metro is offering World Cup shuttle service to SoFi Stadium, MetLife Stadium uses NJ TRANSIT service via Secaucus Junction, and Mexico City Stadium is reached by Metro Line 2 plus the Xochimilco Light Rail. Confirm transit options before arrival.

Important: With the bundled packages sold out, FIFA.com/tickets and FIFA Official Hospitality are the official ticket sources to check. Avoid third-party scalper sites — FIFA warns that tickets bought outside its official channels may be fake, invalid or rejected at stadium gates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Qatar Airways re-release sold-out packages?

Qatar Airways has not publicly confirmed any re-release. Returned and cancelled inventory can occasionally come back online, so it’s worth phoning Qatar Airways Holidays on +974 4144 5544 to ask. There is no formal waitlist.

Is buying tickets on FIFA’s official resale safe?

Yes — FIFA.com/tickets is the official ticketing hub, including the Resale/Exchange Marketplace for eligible Single Match Tickets when other fans list them. Availability is not guaranteed. Avoid third-party scalper sites; FIFA warns that tickets bought outside its official channels may be fake, invalid or rejected at stadium gates.

Which host cities does Qatar Airways fly to directly?

Qatar Airways has direct service from Doha to several US host cities — including New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Boston, Seattle, Philadelphia and the San Francisco Bay Area — plus Toronto in Canada. Mexico and Vancouver are typically reached via partner connections or onward domestic flights bundled into the package.

How do I still attend the World Cup if the packages are sold out?

You have three routes: buy through FIFA.com/tickets, book a FIFA Official Hospitality package at hospitality.fifa.com, or build a DIY trip with Qatar Airways flights from Doha plus a separately booked host-city hotel. You can also sign up on Qatar Airways’ sold-out package page for availability updates.
