The struggle was real for these WNBA players trying to get home after a game unopposed

But their flight scheduled for 10:30 p.m. was delayed an hour.

Then there were mechanical issues.

At almost 1 in the morning, the team finally boarded a new plane to Atlanta, where they would catch a flight to Indiana.

'let's try this again.... boarding a new airplane.

12:50AM:'

Nope again.

According to Natalie Achonwa, who documented the team's journey on Twitter, every flight was overbooked.

So, they took a bus and settled in for the eight-hour journey north.

'UPDATE: 8:44AM, breakfast of champions.

soooo we made it to Atlanta... but EVERY flight to Indy is already overbooked.... and we have a 18 person travel party.'

Despite bus issues just a couple hours into the ride, the team finally made it home, after a grand total of 22 hours travel time.

The next day was a home game against the Minnesota Lynx.

'What a mess. Nothing helps your muscles recover after a game like standing in airports!'

'This thread isn't your typical 'my travel day sucks.' This is a professional women's basketball team, who just played a game, who are stuck sleeping on the floor, not having proper food, and having to take an 8hr bus home instead of a flight.

BRUTAL'

CNN has reached out to the WNBA for comment.

Last August, the Las Vegas Aces forfeited a game -- the first forfeit in WNBA history -- after travel issues led to the team spending more than 25 hours in airports and airplanes.

Though the Aces arrived a few hours before tip-off, they said in statement that playing the scheduled game would put them at risk for injury.
