Can I rebook with Airtran for free?

[camtheriot]

I had to book 14 flights yesterday, and had break them up into 3 different reservations. When I booked the first 11 the price was $78 and then when I went to book the last 3, it had jumped up to $98. I figured it was because we took all of those seats at that price, so I went ahead and booked at the $98 price. Today, I checked the prices again, and they are back down to the $78 price again!!! Is there any way that I can rebook them at today's lower price. I know this is possible with Southwest, but not sure about Airtran.


THANKS

CALL Airtran and ask about getting a credit.

It would seem to me that cancelling the tickets would result in a cancellation fee.

I beleive their cancellation/change fee is $100.

I agree with the suggestion to try and call AirTran. Throw yourself on their mercy --- what the heck. You have nothing to loose and you may be a winner.

Let us know!

Their cancellation fee is $75.00.

I booked a flight one day and the next morning the flights went down - I got a very nice person who let me cancel the reservation and rebook, since it was less than 24 hours later.

Give it a try.....

Many airlines offer full refunds (of any ticket) if you booked online and cancel within 24 hours. I'd try that tacit with Air Tran.

Thanks everyone. I think I'll give them a call, and keep my fingers crossed

You can go online to make flight changes and it will tell you the cost to change and yes there is a fee of $75 per ticket.

Did you check though if there are actually 3 seats available at the lower price? If you checked the price and only used 1 passenger the lower rate may show up. but if you put in 3 passengers the lower rate may not show up.
