🇺🇸⚽🇦🇹 Alles Gute ans ÖFB-Nationalteam für das Spiel gegen Jordanien in der San Francisco Bay Area!

🌉 San Francisco is one of the most iconic cities in the United States — famous for the Golden Gate Bridge, its cable cars, steep streets, and vibrant neighborhoods, from Chinatown to the Mission District. The city’s character also comes through in its food culture, from sourdough bread and fresh seafood to Mission-style burritos. With Silicon Valley just to the south, the Bay Area is also one of the world’s leading centers of technology and innovation.

🏆 The San Francisco Bay Area Stadium will host six matches during the FIFA World Cup 2026, including five group-stage games and one Round-of-32 match.

🇺🇸🤷🛂😱 American citizens! Are you ready to visit Austria and travel through Europe for your summer adventure? You are in for a treat!

At the same time, be aware: Passports regularly get lost or stolen on trains or are forgotten in shops and restaurants. Don’t let this happen to you!

What can you do to keep your passport safe?

✅ Keep your passport on you, not in a bag. Use a pocket with a zipper or closure, or a pouch you can hide under your clothes. Do not put passports in outer pockets or other easily accessible places.

✅ Be vigilant with your bags. Always keep them within eyesight and reach.

✅ Check your surroundings. If something feels suspicious, collect your belongings and remove yourself from the situation.

✅ Wear your backpack or bag in front of you in busy or unsafe areas.

If you do lose your passport, we’ve got you—follow these instructions for applying for an emergency passport (https://at.usembassy.gov/emergency-passport/) and we’ll try to get you on the road again as soon as possible.

Stay safe and enjoy your travels!
