Your team travels; why don’t you? As we’ve seen in the past 2 years, United Airlines is adding additional flights to shuttle fans to some of the key college football games this fall.

Whether you’re heading to a division rivalry, a grudge match, or a non-conference game at the start of the season, numerous flight additions can help you get there. Here’s what the expanded United network looks like this fall.

Given the regional location of many of the games, the new routes will mean more United flights to smaller airports like State College, Pennsylvania (SCE), Fayetteville, Arkansas (FAY), and South Bend, Indiana (SBN).

Better still, even if you’re not a football fan, you can still take advantage of more regional connectivity this fall.

The Chicago-based airline’s additional nonstop flights will facilitate travel to 30 games. Departures will run on Fridays, with return flights on Sundays. The sole exception is the Saturday, August 31 departure on the Baton Rouge-Las Vegas flight; the return is on Monday, September 2.
