Airtran Discounts for April?

[esulerzy]

Anyone know when Airtran may release some discounted flights to WDW for April 24-29? I have a trip planned but current airfares are showing $84 one way - looking for perhaps a $49 one way fare. Any advance word on when they may become available? TIA! Ellen

Uh, I would do almost anything for $89 each way. I am looking for April 9-14 and can't find anything below $150-$189 each way for a nontop flight! I'd love to know if there is even a possibility of a discounted flight for this week!

I also think the $89.00 one way fare is really good. I just read that airfares will continue to rise in the coming months as fuel costs are again going up.
AirTran does, on occasion, post $49.00 fares but there does not seem to be any pattern to when they do this. Also, I have seen when then do this that sometimes you can get one way for $49.00 but the other side of your trip can be something like $129.00. If this happens you will gain nothing. You need to visit their web site every day and several times a day. If I were you I would grab the $89.00 and forget about it. If fares go up as predicted and you wait for a special that doesn't happen you will really be stuck. On the other hand, if they go down or AirTran does run a special you will still have reservations with a good price.

I am so used to grabbing a $49 flight during the off season that I just expected lower fares for a Spring trip! Don't know what I was thinking

I'll grab the $89 flights today! At least I'll have them!

Thanks again!

I keep waiting for a $49 deal too! I used to see them all the time from here to Orlando. If they don't pop up in a couple of weeks I'm gonna get the non-stop one from Southwest.

I just booked my June trip 99 down and 79 for the return trip.
