I know many are scrambling to put the logistics together....here is what we did. Booked for less than $500 a person less than 2 weeks ago. Prices have gone up, but still cheaper now than flying directly to SFO or OAK.
We booked GSP to Phoenix on the 6th. Spending the night at an airport hotel and catching an early flight from Phoenix to OAK on the 7th. We get into Oakland at 0730. Flying out of Oak into GSP on 9th. Taking a Rally Bus to Game from Oakland. No need to rent a car. Luclky I have Hilton points for room., as hotels are extremely high in Bay Area.
Hope this helps. There has only been 1 team from west of the Mississippi River make the natty in the 5 years, until the Other conferences catch up, the NCAA should only schedule the big game on the east coast.....can’t wait for the game in Indy 2 years from now. Go Tigers.
