If it was the football team I am sure they would go charter. Must be that the traveling party is so small that it's not cost effective for that great distance. You have to wonder how many are in the travel party. Maybe 45 or 50 if you count the players, the staff, the administrators, their wives, the announcers. I can't believe it would be more than that.Must be some budget cuts on the SU hill

I wonder if the organizers of the event would charter a jet that would leave from the west coast. According to the Hawaiian Airlines website they use the Airbus A330 which holds 294 passengers. They could fit five or six teams and their traveling party on that.

My guess would be that on an extended trip like that each coach gets a sweet the weather stays with them is up to him. Coaches probably have to pay the airfare or they all do some Foundation related work or JB basketball camp and the Jim and Julie foundation or the camp picks it upIs the university on the hook to pay for airfare and hotel for Mrs. Boeheim, Mrs. Hop, Mrs. Autry, Mrs. McNamara and their kids?
Everyones getting lei'd but me. Sadface.
