American, Delta and Southwest airlines are offering nonstop flights from GSP to the Dallas area on Dec. 28 and Dec. 30, according to a news release. American will offer its normal schedule of two daily flights from GSP to Dallas/Ft. Worth (DFW) while Delta and Southwest will add special flights just for fans traveling to the game.
