Japan RWC2019 - Tickets and Info

@canefan Yeah, they're available on the official site, it just won't let me buy any of them.
Maybe I should get a short contract working for World Rugby IT department... give true credence to the “NZ overly influences World Rugby conspiracies”.

Hey mate, how many tickets do you want? I have a mate in our party who has had to pull the pin at the last minute due to a bereavement. He is looking at his options, so we may have a spare ticket to the NZ SF

@canefan just the 1... but I'm a real prick, and wouldn't wish my company on anybody.

Anybody know of tickets available for ABs semi (whispers it...) and Final?
Official website lists Cat A tickets available for semi, but when I try to add just 1 to “basket”... it claims I've asked for more than what's available.
Presumably resale tickets have to be the entire set of tickets the original holder had?

I just put pairs for both back on pool (going with a mate who also had some).

I'm looking for a couple of tickets for the Semi, trying to buy on official website and stuck in the 'number of tickets selected exceeds availability' loop. Help!

Its actually one single ticket now, and you wouldn't even need to sit with us as it is somewhere else in the stadium

@dejo I know I have raised this on another thread but am 50/50 on buying via Stubhub or Viagogo or rocking up to the stadium early on the day.

Need 2 tickets.

Well, I'm in this gaddamn big concrete monstrosity of a stadium.
Thanks for the hookup to that completely legit and sanctioned ticket resale, @canefan
Approach to the stadium was buzzing.
Eddie was right, all of Japan definitely has ABs as their second team.

Here's hoping the boys can perform in the second 40

Bought fake tickets on viagogo. Fun times. Ended up with legit tix but not seating together

Have been staying in Yokohama but now looking to move to Tokyo proper.

Seems like Yamonote Line does all things to all men Shinjuku/Shibuja/Tokyo/Shingawa (change for stadium).

Any tips for this?

canefan

@pakman sorry what is the question?

@pakman sorry what is the question?

Boils down to:

Can one use Yamonote line to get to most things, including rugby? and
If so, any tips, such as buy an electronic card, etc.?

Buy a pasmo or suica card if you don't have a JR rail pass. If you do have a JR pass, JR rail lines will get you most places if using a JR pass

And re: Yamonote line... yeah, it is a pretty useful one. It's effectively Tokyo's version of London's "Circle Line".
With it hitting the main Tokyo station, and Ueno, Shinjuku, and Shinagawa... if you were only in Tokyo for a few days, you could easily never use anything but this.
And like @canefan said - if you've got a JR RailPass, or one of the variants - it should be all free to use. If not - grab an IC card, or just buy tickets as/when needed. IC card makes it all pretty quick/easy but.
