AirTran Price Hike

[PSUGuy]

This is sort of a heads-up and a patting myself on my back, I booked AT direct out of ABE as soon as they came out as the rate was in the ballpark compared to rates I've received from them in the past. The leg down on March 2 is still what I paid for it, but the return leg just jumped from $97 to $175. I've learned not to play too many games with arifares out of this neck of the woods.

Right on. Thanks for the update.

I had a similar experience..... I am booked for March at $114 each way out of MSP. A bit higher than other years, but right at the $250RT threshold I use out of MSP. The rates jumped the next day to as high as $300 EACH WAY and are now hovering at $255 each way..... other airlines have similar fares for the same time frame, so I am comfortable.

I will watch closely and hit them up for a credit if by chance they do have a fare sale for March........

OK, I wasn't aware you could do this. Thanks! I just checked and my Air Tran flight going to MCO on Dec 4th went way up, but my flight home on Dec 12 went down $32.00. I just called the A+ Rewards line and got a very nice rep who said she'd credit my A+ Rewards account for the $32.00 and that it would be good until August 4, 2011. Now where do I go to see that credit? I went to Air Tran.com, logged on, and clicked on 'My Account', but all that shows up there are my A+ Rewards credits. Where does the $32.00 credit show up and how do I use it on my next flight?
