? FIFA affect on booking an SP ... ?
- Thread starter 400DC
- Start date
I’m avoiding downtown from the start of the World Cup until about July 2nd which I believe is the last game to be played in Toronto
I’ve told my wife to see if she can just work from home for those few weeks because it will be a disaster driving down there.
I think that's why Metrolinx has been cramming in so much track work over the last few weeks.
I got together with a lady I see regularly last weekend and of course, Metrolinx, in their infinite wisdom, decided to shut down the Kitchener line on a long weekend so I had to take a bus to the 407 subway station. I also didn't learn about it until the last minute. The funny thing is that I go to the gym on Fridays and watch CP24 while I'm doing cardio. There were no announcements.
On the plus side, I discovered that there's a subway station there and it's on the University line.
I have used this 407 route to get to the Airport for example and to admit that it is "not that bad" at all, big question is of course how things will be handled for the big events upcoming, and from what this interview was saying / you are reporting / some other things I've seen and read, not looking great
Let's see of course hopefully will not be a "disaster", I seem to recall that sports writer got to the Messi match from Hamilton using the GO train.I think it was diverted because it was a French plane and needed to go somewhere French. I could be wrong.
I booked the trip I just returned from a few months ago. My Marriott Residence Inn Mississauga, I still have the pricing sheet when I looked up 6 nights, but actually booked for 8 - returned a week ago to Phoenix.
The 6-night sheet, when returned on 5/17 (but got started 2 days earlier for 8 nights), was $1049, which will double this coming week, then almost triple to $3k+ starting May 31 and for June. I saw the huge increase, so I avoided it by taking a trip before the rate ramp-up.
Good for you! And to think that traffic chaos and the temporary seats in BMO field that sway with the winds from Lake Ontario, are awaiting those who will pay the huge prices! OOOKKK
I don't even want to look and see how bad it's going to be next month, probably take a page out of some of the people here's book and forget June and July exist
This didn't occur to me at all. I gonna skip hobby until August-September.
I plan to take a "pause" as well... See what shakes out with all the visitors and who/what is left standing.
The ladies are going to make a killing, money-wise.
