AirTran Sales

I just found roundtrip tickets from Indy to Tampa for both April and June for less than $150 each! Plus, they are running a special where if you sign up for their email service, you get a $25 coupon. I can't even remember how long it has been since I have seen deals like this on flights!!

Thanks for posting this! I've never considered AirTran before because I didn't think they flew out of MSP...I was wrong! Their airfare is impressive! I'll for sure have to look into it for next time!!

That's awesome!! We usually fly Airtran to Orlando and have always had good experiences!! I looked at April for us and under $500 for 3 is awesome! Now to put a bug in DH's ear

We have DVC and I might just have to whip out the SR savings to convince him. LOL

They do have good prices , but we flown with them twice and both times had the worst service. once they had us sit on the runway for over an hour and never told us why. never again.

I did have one really bad experience with AirTran and swore them off. But then I had a horrible one with Southwest and went back to AirTran and it was fine. LOL! Sometimes it is a gamble. SG got stuck with USAirways recently and sat in the airport in Phoenix for more than 12 hours without any explanation. It's kind of a crapshoot. But I'd say I've had about the same percentage of good/bad experiences with almost every airline at this point.

AirTran is my favorite to fly. SW makes me feel like being herded on like cattle. I was on a flight onetime with them and some baby had her feet in my side the entire time, kicking because breastfeeding momma insist she eat when she didn't want to. My DH was on the other side of me looing out the window the entire flight cause he was so embarrassed.

I think I've sat on the runway with every airline company there is. I blame that more on the airport then the airlines, but, an explanation is always good.

No good deals from oregon though. Darn Oregon

I got a good deal coming back from Orlando to Indy on May 10 for $69ppon Airtran. I had already gotten my tickets to there on Northwest. I hope everything goes okay. This will be a first time flying with my 3 kids 9,6,2. I keep getting scared like we will get there and be delayed hours and hours or something. Or we can't sit together and my 2 year old has to site by himself!! But that's just me. I always fear the worst.

YEA!! I got an email today from AirTran about a sale, and found web only prices for $89 to bring us home from our August trip!!

I booked them instantly. Does anyone know if Airtran gives you a credit like Southwest does if the price drops before your trip?

We're flying their on SW because I have a $90 credit from our December trip. Those tickets are $99 so it's like almost getting one free..And there's still the possibility of a drop and getting another credit for the future.
