The WNBA is finally granting its teams the ability to travel via charter flights rather than commercial airlines. In a way.
The league has given a little recently,What on earth is JSX, the WNBA's charter company?
According to its site, JSX terms itself as a"hop-on" charter company allowing regularly people to book seats on smaller charter planes with none of the hassle of commercial airlines. Passengers can show up as little as 20 minutes before a flight without having to go through security and wait for their flights at private terminals.
Many of the flights listed on the site seem reasonably priced, with some tickets lower than $200 for seats on 30-person planes with plenty of room. The drawback is the service comes nowhere to close to offering all the flights the WNBA would need, as most of its flights are shorter routes between only a few cities that have WNBA teams. For example, Griner's Mercury appears to only have access to flights from Phoenix to Burbank, Calif., Denver and Las Vegas, so there are only two road venues in which JSX is actually useful.
JSX reportedly has the ability to create flights outside of its public schedule for a higher fee, which is what the WNBA is prohibiting. However, the Aces reportedly worked with JSX to create public available flights based on their road schedule, known as"pop up flights," which they apparently are no longer taking.Your browser does not support HTML5 audio.
