Scotland could face three venues if they progress: Boston vs likely Germany on 29 June, kick‑off at 21:30 BST, Mexico City vs Mexico on 1 July, or New Jersey/New York vs France or Norway on 30 June. Fans like Dave Watson plan to linger in New York until fate decided. A win would send them to the knockout stage. Boston remains familiar base for supporters.

Supporters scramble with travel plans. Callum from Linwood sold his car and quit his job to stay, while Alan Horsburgh weighs bus rides from Orlando to Reykjavik and cheap air‑mile tickets for his wife, hoping to catch the knockout round. Ian Greenwell and Leslie Higgins pledge to fly home if Scotland exit. Mexico City remains a possible venue. Their decisions reflect the passion of the Tartan Army.

Boston remains favourite because fans already know its 64,000‑seat stadium and nearby pubs, plus a chance to catch a Fenway baseball game. Mexico City offers iconic Azteca atmosphere but altitude could affect performance. New Jersey’s MetLife hosts the final and carries a $98 round‑trip cost from Penn Station; fans also eye cheap hostel options. Travel costs will test even the most devoted fans. New Jersey final point.
