On sale now on united.com. $333 roundtrip, surprisingly cheap:
JUST IN: @United, for the first time, offering college football fans non-traditional point-to-point, nonstop routes for games this season, including Baton Rouge to Austin for LSU-Texas and Columbus to Lincoln for Ohio State-Nebraska.

Those 7500 LSU fans offered tickets out of the 100,000 available seats sure are lucky!

It's going to huuuge for the Merto BTR airport

Prices are gonna be $300+, would just be cheaper to drive.

Depending on when you leave, it’s only a 6.5 hour drive with one stop. Not bad of a drive at all.

My roundtrip flight from Boston was less than $225.

I stopped driving distances over 4 hours years ago.

Via Airlines had a direct flight up until recently. I took it a couple of times for business. It was CHEAP. I guess it was too cheap. They no longer fly into either Austin or Baton Rouge.

This is a genius move. They're going to make bank on that flight.

You want them to offer us 20000 tickets?
You want to take 10k seats away from our fans in a year and give it to Texas fans?

Friday to Sunday eh? Sucks for ppl that wanted to get there a day or two early

Via was responsible for stranding the LSU baseball team in Austin this year. They had to bus back.

It's on a 737-900, too. I hope this becomes a common occurrence.

Delta could make bank with an SEC and ACC partnership supporting Friday/Sunday travel between the random regional airports they already serve.

BTR-XNA
Are a few examples of terrible drives that could be made easier with direct flights for game weekend.

Capitalism!
Posted on 6/20/19 at 3:12 pm to omfgeauxtigers
Pretty smart:
120 Standard Seats @ $333 = $40k
39 Economy Plus @ $453 = $18K
20 First class @ $561 = $11K
$69K
Hope they stock up on booze!
