Have craving, will travel.

A cross-country track team at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York went to extremes to fill their Chick-fil-A craving on Saturday, purchasing a plane ticket and going through TSA just to get a bite of the beloved fast food.

CHICK-FIL-A VP ON 'SECRET SAUCE' OF EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE: 'JESUS HAD IT RIGHT'

According to reports, the college students had a week off and wanted to grab lunch at Chick-fil-A. Unfortunately, the closest freestanding outpost was 90 minutes away from the Troy, N.Y., campus.

However, the quick-thinking team soon remembered a closer location — but it was inside the Albany Airport at the terminal's food court, and behind a security checkpoint, meaning the group would have to purchase a plane ticket to access it.

According to reports, Putrino and his cross-country teammates pitched in to buy a $98 plane ticket so they could order from the Chick-fil-A inside the airport.

With the hunger for America’s favorite chain growing, team captain Vincent Putrino found the cheapest plane ticket — one-way from Albany to Fort Lauderdale for $98 — and asked each of his 18 teammates to pitch in $5.50 to buy it, ABC11 reported.

Putrino then drove out to the airport to follow through on the plan.

Once past TSA, Putrino went directly to the Chick-fil-A counter, where he put in his team’s $227.28 (not including the plane ticket) order: 15 chicken sandwiches, 15 large fries, 13 orders of chicken nuggets, 1 bag of cookies and 1 lemonade, the outlet reported.
