Miami's World Cup parking passes will cost up to $250

Between the lines: Parking passes must be purchased ahead of time, as on-site parking won't be available on game days.

• Ticket holders are only allowed one parking space.

What they're saying: FIFA defended the prices, which it said are "determined based on local market conditions and benchmarking against comparable major events previously held in each host city," the Miami Herald reported.

• The organization said the money generated from parking will be reinvested in the sport, but failed to elaborate, per the outlet.

Flashback: Parking passes during the College Football Championship in January sold for nearly $400 on secondary markets, with some reaching almost $700.

The other side: Miami-Dade County will offer free shuttles for World Cup ticket holders traveling to Hard Rock Stadium.

• The shuttle hubs will be at the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Metrorail Station, Brightline Aventura, Golden Glades Intermodal Station, and Seminole Hard Rock Hotel.

The big picture: FIFA has been widely criticized for its parking prices across the U.S.

• Complaints range from the high costs of accessible parking at stadiums ($125 in Philadelphia to $300 in Los Angeles, per The Guardian) to no parking at MetLife Stadium.
• New Jersey's NJ Transit is set to charge more than $100 for a return rail ticket from Penn Station to MetLife, normally about a $13 cost, The Athletic reported.
