NJ Transit intends to implement special event fares for train service from Penn Station in New York to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey for 2026 World Cup matches, potentially exceeding $100 per ticket, a sharp increase from regular fares. U.S. Rep. Mikie Sherrill criticized the arrangement, claiming FIFA contributes nothing to transportation costs despite projected $11 billion in revenue, leaving NJ Transit with a $48 million bill. Most details remain unverified, with reports from two sources highlighting pricing and policy tensions.
