Everyday passengers shared a commercial flight with Clark and the Indiana Fever Thursday. The WNBA heavily relies on commercial flights for in-season away games.
DALLAS, Texas — On Thursday, Caitlin Clark experienced firsthand what WNBA players and allies have been complaining about for years: sharing airspace with the public to and from contests. Clark just inked a reported $28 million endorsement deal with Nike, went No. 1 in the WNBA draft, and became the NCAA's all-time leading scorer in college basketball history with 3,685 career points before all that--yet she's going to have to fly commercial for much of the season.
Caitlin Clark is hopefully going to force the charter flight issue in the WNBA the way Brittney Griner did. It’s about safety and player health. People were excited to see Clark. Passengers came off the plane, telling WFAA how cool it was for her to walk down the aisle before taking off.
