The first part of the US World Cup team arrived in Qatar early on Friday.
Nine of the 26 players and staff were met by a piano playing The Star-Spangled Banner and people waving American flags when they walked into a Doha hotel following a flight from New York.
Coach Gregg Berhalter and players from Major League Soccer teams, whose seasons have ended, made the trip following the roster announcement on Wednesday night at a Brooklyn music venue.
The initial group of players included goalkeeper Sean Johnson; defenders Aaron Long, Shaq Moore, DeAndre Yedlin and Walker Zimmerman; midfielders Kellyn Acosta and Cristian Roldan; and forwards Jesús Ferreira and Jordan Morris.
Europe-based players will report after their clubs finished play before the World Cup break: the teams of midfielders Luca de la Torre (Celta Vigo) and Yunus Musah (Valencia) finished on Thursday night, though de la Torre has not played since October 24 due to a torn muscle in his left leg.
Defender Joe Scally (Borussia Mönchengladbach) and forward Gio Reyna (Borussia Dortmund) were to face each other in the Bundesliga on Friday night.
Saturday's schedule included matches for forward Christian Pulisic (Chelsea), goalkeeper Matt Turner (Arsenal), midfielders Brenden Aaronson and Tyler Adams (Leeds), goalkeeper Ethan Horvath (Luton), forward Josh Sargent (Norwich) and defender Cameron Carter-Vickers (Glasgow Celtic).
Six players have Sunday matches: Fulham defenders Tim Ream and Antonee Robinson; Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie; AC Milan defender Sergiño Dest, Lille forward Tim Weah and Antalyaspor forward Haji Wright.
Back in the World Cup for the first time since 2018, the US plays its Group B opener against Wales on November 21, faces England four days later, and closes the group stage against Iran on November 29.
