A bit OT perhaps, but makes me wonder… what would happen if no one applied for an event?

Oh, it better not mean that Taipei gets both, I will be so mad!
I hope so too. I mean, something like that should NEVER happen.
Then again, its the ISU....and the ISU always seem to do things that leave you speechless.

Re 4 Continents and Junior Worlds
In the latest Communication about ISU Council decision, they state:
ISU Four Continents Figure Skating Championships (February 8-14, 2021):
Considering necessary clarifications related to the applications received, the Council decided to keep this allotment pending.
ISU World Junior Figure Skating Championships (March 1-7, 2021):
Taking into account the pending allotment for the 2021 ISU Four Continents Figure Skating Championships and possible ramifications for the applications received for the 2021 ISU World Junior Figure Skating Championships, the Council decided to keep this allotment pending to be decided at the same time as the allotment for the 2021 ISU Four Continents Figure Skating Championships.

Clearly the O'Brien Group Arena's issues have not yet been brought up to scratch, then.
Great....we know that the ISU won't host a championship in an arena with only 1000 or so seats on one side of the rink.
They need to get a large arena...they need Hisense arena.
If ISA can't work it out, we will probably be getting a double shot of awkward live streaming!! Cos live streaming any skating event from Taiwan ends up being more painful than it should be.

I don't think it has to do with the seating. From what I've heard elsewhere, the issues are more to do with media access (international media, not local broadcasting rights). And possibly catering.
Oh. So that's the issue.
Thanks for letting us know.

What's the reason for this? I feel like I'm missing something obvious lol
The person I quoted said it’d be more expensive to travel to Stockholm than Italy. I assumed that means they live in Europe (otherwise it would’t make much difference, I think). And therefore their travel costs aren’t going to be huge.
But staying in Stockholm for a fair number of days can be pricy. Not exactly the cheapest country on the planet!
And then there are the competition tickets. The prices have been going up a lot in recent years. I dread to think what they’ll cost for Stockholm.
All things considered, yes, for many people travel costs may really be the cheapest part of their trip.
