does anyone know if I can just upgrade 1 or 2 people of my party to business class and have the others stay in coach? We were thinking of doing like the Home Alone movies and leaving the kids in coach while mom and dad flew up front...... ha hahahahahhahahhahahahha
Seriously though, can it be done or does it have to be everyone on your itinerary?
I see the above poster just answered your question. Yes, you can upgrade just you and your dh.
I paid $99 a person on Christmas day from Phoenix to Milwaukee. Our plane was empty and row 10 was empty behind us. Row 10 has a little more extra room in the seats, but AirTran started charging more for that row, it used to be that you could select it at the 24 hr mark free of charge, now they want I think $25 a seat. My family enjoyed the free drinks, I don't drink on the plane, plus you get 2 free snacks. We also got free WiiFi on the way home. AirTran had it free over the holidays.
Also it includes 2 free checked bags per person. When me and my dh fly home from Florida, we always take the free upgrade because it is $50. AirTran charges $25 a bag, so why not get the free upgrade to business class and have better seats. I also been on flights with AirTran and the seats are gone. So if you don't check in at the 24 hr mark and wait till you get to the airport, the seats can be gone. One more thing, Airtran made an announcement that they were looking for people to check their bags that day for free at the gate. To many people bring carry-on's and they would store their luggage for free. I saw no one take them up on their offer. People don't want to wait around for their luggage I guess.
