Individual Tickets vs. Hospitality Packages
Unlike hospitality packages that include additional experiences, the individual tickets released this week focus on accessing a single match. However, the cost remains high compared to average income in Mexico.
The lowest price, 34,700 pesos, equates to over 111 days of work with the current minimum wage. Meanwhile, the highest price, 78,500 pesos, represents nearly 251 days of minimum wage.
In terms of the national average salary, these tickets imply between 3.5 and 8 months of full pay.
