In this World Cup, Brazil and Argentina have two South American powerhouses, which are the favorites to win the championship. And a large number of fans from both countries rushed to Qatar to cheer for their home team. From faraway South America to , the Middle East, , the cost is naturally quite expensive.
At the match between Brazil and Switzerland, Red Star News reporter interviewed a Brazilian family of four and asked them to calculate the economic accounts.
30-year-old Renato and his wife Jesus brought a pair of children from their hometown Sao Paulo to Doha to watch the game. They plan to watch 6 group matches in Qatar, "3 games for Brazil, one game for Portugal, and two games for France. The tickets are not too expensive, and the four of us are close to $2,000." Renato originally wanted to stay in the knockout round, but the company's vacation was not long, so he barely took a leave of absence for half a month.
"We will stay in Qatar for 12 days, and we will fly on the road for two or three days. We booked the air ticket early, not too expensive. is about 8,000 US dollars ."
But Renato encountered a big trouble when booking a hotel. Qatar, an energy-based country, cannot provide enough hotel resources, and the resources that can be released are quite limited. It is basically unrealistic to travel in a budget, and high-end hotels are almost fully booked. In the end, Renato chose a family of four to live in the cruise ship .
Due to insufficient hotel accommodation, Qatar temporarily rented 3 luxury cruise ships as fans' hotels. "We like cruise ships very much, and food and accommodation can be solved. And you can stop every time you arrive at a port. There are many entertainment facilities on the cruise ship, and children can also find fun."
Renato enthusiastically showed the photos on the cruise ship to the Red Star News reporter. However, the disadvantage of cruise ships is that they are expensive. is just over $900 a night, and it will be close to $12,000 in 12 days, which accounts for the majority of Renato's spending on this trip.
is different from previous World Cups. The stadium of this World Cup is relatively concentrated, and international fans can basically choose to live in the same place throughout the trip, and do not have to transfer through transportation such as planes or trains during the game. In addition, with Hayya Card, fans can take the newly built subway to most venues to watch the game for free, which can also save some costs.
", plus eating and buying some souvenirs, we will probably spend about 30,000 US dollars in total (note: about RMB 220,000). is indeed an expensive expense, but I think it is worth it to watch the national team competition in the World Cup and take the children to see the world."
It is understood that Renato and his wife work in large multinational companies. Their monthly income is about 60,000 US dollars, and watching the World Cup is only half of their monthly income. Despite the good income, the Renato family did not spend too much expensively. "My son likes Neymar , I hope he can feel this atmosphere since he was a child."
According to reports, Five-Star Brazil had about 30,000 fans who came to the scene this time, far exceeding Swiss fans who only had a few hundred people. They created huge sounds at the 974 Stadium. This does not include Brazilian fans who did not buy tickets off the court and watched the live broadcast of the big screen in the Fan Square.
traveled across the ocean to support the Samba Legion, which cost a lot of money only for the love in my heart. This is how generations of Brazilian fans passed down.
