World Cup - New York City
To everyone planning on visiting New York City at some point during the world cup, I have a few suggestions for transport. Our subway system and buses do reach everywhere, but sometimes the routes don’t go directly where you want and you have to take quite a detour, but it’s cheap and accessible, albeit a bit shitty and unreliable at times. As for ride share services, those will be especially high in the summer, as uber and others prices will surge and I expect there to be quite a lot of demand. I suggest taking a yellow cab, which especially if you’re in manhattan, you can find one driving by every 15 seconds. Stand on the avenues to find them faster. They’ll cost much less as they have fixed surges, which are only based on the time of day and some traffic, but no where near as costly as ride share services. There’s also city bikes which you can use to get around Manhattan specifically.
