Will there be a Rutgers football fan presence at the Gator Bowl? This guy is all-in

The # of people I personally know who have decided to make the trip, in the last 2/3 days alone, is impressive. Been saying all week 5K+ - considering everything - would be solid+!
Definitely won't be that high due to flight cancellations and delays. My flight out of D.C. was just cancelled and I have no idea if/when I will be rebooked. Definitely many others in the same situation. I just hope the bowl game is actually played.

Okay. The vast majority of customers are not getting “canceled” they’re getting consolidated. The number of flights out of the New York metropolitan area being canceled, then consolidated, is actually rather low to Jacksonville and Orlando due to the fact that most of them are full.

Same here .. United canceled my Flight today back to Newark… have a direct flight tomorrow to JAX.. hopefully.
 
There are so many alumni and snowbirds in Florida. Regular season games at USF, UCF and FIU had a lot of Rutgers fans.
Thank you. Probably have 30-40k alumni in Florida now. The unofficial # was 15k around 2000 and it’s swelled since. Not everyone is flying down today.

Hey man I don't know where you're getting this line you keep repeating from but it's not true. COVID-19 is why so many flights are being cancelled (from illness to lack of airline personnel). The flight of mine that was cancelled yesterday out of Dulles was completely full but didn't have a crew available. I still don't know if I will be at the game tomorrow despite having tickets so obviously there will be some other RU (and presumably Wake) fans in similar situations. Hope everyone (including me!) is able to make it.

Me? Well aware of the reason that they are short on crews, thanks, lol! From someone who literally works in operations at American Airlines and is a very good friend of mine (also see Belem Prophet’s post). They do as best a job as possible to consolidate the flights that way they need fewer crews. People who are getting canceled are either being offered other flights or, unfortunately, options that don’t include flying out today or tomorrow. Most of our fans have had no problem. Hopefully yours gets straightened out, however, sorry about that buddy!

1/2 hour from St. Augustine right now. Spending the night there so we’ll be ready for JAX in the morning.
