At a group meeting on Tuesday, WNBA director Cathy Engelbert stated to reporters that the club will begin allowing league-wide teams to fly on charter aircraft this period” as soon as we can get the planes in location.”
Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese are two well-known rookies with storable individual brands, and the group welcomed a number of them in the wake of this move. A timetable for formalizing the league’s use of charter planes has n’t been announced. A WNBA director did not respond to a request for comment right away.
Over the course of the next two years, it may cost the category$ 25 million, according to the Associated Press. According to Engelbert, charter flights for each team could cost the league between$ 25 and$ 30 million in 2023.

New York Liberty middle Breanna Stewart posted a helicopter icon with a problem mark on Twitter after Christine Brennan from USA Today shared the information.
In 2023, Stewart was vocal about the league’s needed for charter flights, saying she had add her “NIL, messages and manufacturing time” to finding a solution and solicited the help of other people.
Starting with a restrictive structure, the W had been eventually allowing charter flights. Prior to now, team could not use charter planes to put themselves at a disadvantage in terms of competition.
Last year, the group allowed teams to law flights for ago- to- up games, for the entirety of the 2023 postseason and to the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup Championship game. Engelbert claimed that a” 4 million bank” was required to do that during the document.
” We have to be in the proper financial status. At the draft, Engelbert stated that we would n’t compromise the financial viability of this league.
In 2022, the New York Liberty, owned by Joe and Clara Tsai, was fined$ 500, 000 for charting flights to absent game.
