The WNBA’s travel policy is a disaster, has been for a while.
Back in July, the Liberty went through a nightmare that was so epic Jazmine Jones chronicled it on social media. They lost a game after arriving late, then barely made it back home in time for a big game at Barclays.
Joe Tsai was not pleased. The WNBA doesn’t permit the use of charters no matter what. Teams must fly coach. Something about rich owners like Tsai having an advantage over the less rich. The NBA’s 30 teams, of course, all use charter jets, new ones in fact.
