That seems rather stupid to me if it is Yes, so as to limit the amount of people on the trails. Tickets were $30-40 USD. I’m super excited to watch. I should get some fantastic photos as well. Cross Country (Eventing) is one of my favorite Olympic events. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

And ok, I guess 30-40 is pretty reasonable for such an event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian1010 7,418 Posted October 15, 2019 #34 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Have been doing a lot of planning with my Reddit Olympics associates as of late. My schedule is really starting to take shape. We’ll be in Tokyo from July 23 to August 3. We got a very nice priced Airbnb to stay in. Our flights are free thanks to flier miles. Our flight there will happen during the opening ceremony I believe, so hopefully I can catch it mid-flight. The layover in Vienna is still unplanned, mostly because our group is just freaking busy right now. I’ve decided to get ahead and post my tentative event schedule below. Black means I’m for sure going, and Red are maybe, or tickets I’d like to trade for a another sport/event. Jul 25th 9:00 - 12:30 Handball (TOHBL01) (B) Men's Preliminaries (2 matches) Jul 26th 10:15 - 12:25 Basketball 3x3 (TOBK305) (B) Men’s and Women’s Pool Play (4 matches) Jul 26th 13:00 - 16:45 Canoe Slalom (TOCSL01) (B) Men’s C1 Heats/Women’s K1 Heats (Runs 1 and 2) Jul 27th 14:00 - 16:45 Canoe Slalom (TOCSL02) (B) Men’s C1 Semifinal/Final/Medal Ceremony Jul 28th 13:30 - 15:30 Basketball 3x3 (TOBK313) (B) Men’s and Women’s Pool Play (4 matches) Jul 29th 19:50 - 22:00 Weightlifting (TOWLF12) (B) Men’s 73KG: Group A/Medal Ceremony Jul 30th 15:30 - 19:20 Rugby Sevens (TORUG08) (C) Women's Preliminaries (6 matches) Jul 31st 6:00 - 7:35 Athletics (Non-ticketed event) Men's 20K Race Walk Jul 31st 17:30 - 20:55 Equestrian (TOEQ02) (B) Eventing: Dressage Team and Individual - Session 2 Aug 1st 8:00 - 11:10 Equestrian (TOEQ03) (B) Eventing: Dressage Team and Individual - Session 3 Aug 2nd 8:30 - 11:55 Equestrian (TOEQ04) (A) Eventing: Cross Country Team and Individual *I will update my schedule when I get more tickets. “Sport has the power to change the world.

I am gonna spend in Japan about a month. Haven't bought flights neither Olympic tickets. As a Czech citizen I have pretty bad access to any Olympic tickets. I would like to buy any but it's getting quite difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Swede 8 Posted October 17, 2019 #39 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Chech Republic is part of the EU/EEA area.This means that you,Jan,can buy tickets from a number of ATRs for example Dertour,Eventeam,Cosport and so on. Any citizen within the stipulated area above can do the same. I´ve bought tickets from Germany and Austria for example.It is perfectly legit.

Blue Swede 8 Posted October 17, 2019 #40 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I´ve bought 20 tickets thus far.Weight is on Track and Fields with 7 different tickets. I am still lacking a couple of tickets. Managed to pick a Boxing ticket up yesterday from Cosport,but still lacking a few of those. As every man and his dog..I haven´t managed to buy tickets to Swimming and Gymnastics.I have bought other events instead,but will resell those if I manage to buy a ticket to a Sarah Sjöström gold chance or the womens teams finals in Gymnastics. Otherwise,I´m all set to go really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
