Airtran

[scottny]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has used this airline and if so how was the flight?

Delays?

I will be flying out of Charlotte NC so it is a short flight but nice price.

Also, are they with the Disney Magical Express?

Thank you.

I found out about the DME. Basically now how is this airline?

I just came back from a trip and used airtran and ME everything worked perfectly, flights on time, Pop Century took my suitcases the morning I left and printed out boarding passes for us, all we did was hop on the ME with our carry-ons, go thru security and wait for boarding. It was easy and carefree, last year we had to drag our suitcases thru the airport and wit in a LOOOONG line to check them in, not this time! Yeah!

We used Airtran in Feb. Had no problems. There was a minor delay (30 min) on the flight home, but every time we fly out of MCO we have a flight delay, regardless of the airline. :confused3

ME worked great with it. We are using them again for our Nov trip, both because of the cost and ME to/from VWL.

We flew airtran in Jan 2007 before it was on the MME plan. The flight was great no delays. I'm looking forward to using them again and being able to check my luggage for the return trip home with MME.:woohoo:

Some one correct me if I am wrong, but I thought anyone flying in and going to disney can use the Disney Magical Express

Anyone can you are correct. I'm just not wording my post very well. I was talking about using the "Resort Airline Check-in". We did use it in Jan- since then Airtran was added to the list. I will be using "Resort Airline Check-in" on our next trip.:cutie:

Air Tran is great, except they change little things like flight numbers. Don't get me wrong, I love them, but my flight numbers changed and nothing else and I had to call and reconfirm. I thought that was a little - crazy?:rolleyes1

I've flown Airtran out of RDU & Atlanta. Twice from RDU to MCO. No problems anytime I've flown with them. I just wish they were starting their nonstop to MCO from RDU a month earlier so we could see who won in price, them or SW....
