The 2026 World Cup will create unprecedented transportation challenges across 16 host cities in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, requiring sophisticated coordination for VIP movements, executive hosting, and complex multi-city ground transportation operations. Savoya has developed industry-first Groups Technology specifically designed to manage these high-volume, high-stakes demands with precision, visibility, and control.
This geographic scale represents one of the most complex transportation environments ever seen for a global sporting event. Airport arrival surges, overlapping hospitality schedules, private client programs, and inter-city travel windows converge simultaneously, often on match days marked by heightened security, restricted traffic zones, and limited curb access around stadiums. Major venues include SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, and AT&T Stadium in Dallas, among others across the three host nations.
Savoya's platform provides a unified operating environment that allows planners to oversee entire ground transportation programs in real time, replacing fragmented communication threads and multiple vendor management with a single system. Planners can monitor flight arrivals, manage last-minute itinerary changes, track live vehicle locations, and coordinate transfers between airports, hotels, hospitality venues, and stadiums while maintaining visibility across cities and time zones. This oversight is essential for delivering consistent chauffeur service to VIPs, executives, sponsors, and international delegations.
The technology is supported by Savoya's established operational infrastructure, including a global chauffeur network across more than 350 markets, a 24/7 Client Care team, and an operations model trusted by Fortune 500 travel teams. For a tournament expected to generate unprecedented movement volume and tight ground timelines, this combination provides predictability rarely available at this scale. According to Mark More, SVP of Product & Marketing at Savoya, planners need real-time visibility and control when accountable for delivering consistent experiences across multiple cities under intense time pressure.
Transportation coordination extends beyond match days, as sponsors and corporate hosts often operate multi-day hospitality activations, executive leadership itineraries, and off-site events across host cities. Savoya's platform keeps these movements organized and transparent, ensuring continuity and consistency as travelers arrive from dozens of countries, cross borders between host nations, and move through congested metropolitan areas. The company delivers a unified executive car service experience across all host cities, ensuring VIP guests receive consistent professionalism and care at every destination.
As the countdown to the tournament accelerates, meeting and event planners increasingly seek providers capable of supporting global-scale programs without sacrificing control or service quality. Savoya's Groups Technology, combined with its operational ecosystem, represents a proven solution for large-scale ground transportation programs that cannot afford uncertainty or last-minute surprises. The platform's ability to manage hundreds of coordinated movements while maintaining high-touch service standards addresses critical logistical challenges for what will be the largest World Cup ever held.
