Lynx’s Achonwa Calls Out WNBA for Commercial Travel, Scheduling Issues

WNBA teams and players continue to have issues while flying commercial throughout the 2022 season.

On Saturday, Lynx forward Natalie Achonwa detailed her traveling “woes” through a Twitter thread. Ahead of the team’s game on Sunday afternoon in Washington D.C., their flight was canceled. This comes after the team played at home Thursday and then took an early flight to Indiana on Friday.

The 29-year-old mentioned that the staff was attempting to get the team on a new flight so they could still get there Saturday night and practice ahead of Sunday afternoon’s tipoff.
