We are aware of the FAA nationwide ground stop that affected domestic and some international flights, including flights into SFO, OAK, and SJC, on November 13. On Friday afternoon, the FAA stopped flights across the country after a communications outage at air traffic control centers. The ground stop has since been lifted, but many flights have been cancelled or delayed, and cancellations are expected to continue into the weekend. SFO is also running long delays tonight due to high winds. This is unfortunate, and we’re sorry to everyone whose travel plans were affected.
BMT 2026 is still going ahead as scheduled on Saturday, November 14.
- Check-in opens at 7:30 AM in Dwinelle Hall and closes at 8:30 AM, with late check-in from 8:30 to 8:45 AM.
- The full schedule is in the Tournament Day Logistics post.
If your flight was cancelled or delayed, contact your airline or travel company directly for rebooking and other alternatives.
If any of your teams or students won’t be coming, please email us at team@berkeley.mt, whether or not you’ve already checked in. Include your organization, team name(s), and which students won’t make it. We can:
- Change their registration to BMT 2026 Online on December 5.
- Save seats for them at BMT 2027 and/or BmMT 2027.
- Work with you on any registration changes and fees.
On tournament day:
- For day-of updates, please use Live. Add it to your phone’s home screen and turn on notifications so you get any changes right away.
- If you arrive after check-in closes, we have late student check-in at the information desk in the Dwinelle Hall lobby, open from 8 AM and marked on the Live map.
