[Jewbull]

Now that the dang southwest flights are gone, what are some other options besides driving the 600 miles.

Any other airport options??

Hello again

Just an FYI, if you purchase a ticket on Southwest from Tampa to Birmingham and USF gets a bowl bid from the Texas Bowl you can change your reservation and not be penalized with any fees.

"If you choose not to use a restricted ticket or Ticketless Travel funds that you have already purchased, the amount you paid for your travel may be applied toward

the purchase of another Southwest Airlines reservation so long as travel will be completed within one year from date of original purchase. Southwest does not charge a “fee†for the “exchange†of tickets or Ticketless Travel."

Cheers

I'm all booked for Birmingham (thanks for the help, swatpamike!), but while I was looking, I noticed that a viable alternative other than Atlanta would be Nashville.  There are 3 non-stops a day going back to Tampa, and it's about a 3 hour drive (a little further, but not too much further, than Atlanta).  Food for thought...

Hey you guys:

Here are some other options.  We are definitely going to have at least one charter flight leaving Friday and coming back Saturday.  If there is enough interest, we will have a second charter.  We are also no looking for people interested in a bus package leaving really early on Friday morning and coming back right after the game.

If you want more information on the bus trip, CALL ME at (813) 974-3481.

For the charter flight, you'll have to wait until Monday for right now and go on line to book it.  Go Bulls!
