Dear Airtran.....

[dudspizza]

Please change my flight times going both ways so I can switch to better flight times.......

Why didn't you choose the flights you wanted in the first place?

Doesn't work on AirTran. They change flight times so often it makes your head spin! Duds must have decided to play the AirTran time change lottery. Duds - hope you win, LOL!

I must be one of the lucky ones. We have been booked for a few months now and have had no changes yet. When do they seem to happen meaning how close to departure date? I wouldn't mind an earlier flight there but I am happy with what we have. At the time we booked we had to have a late flight and things have changed. We are currently the last flight of the day into MCO.

Not speaking for duds, but I'll sacrifice schedule for cost (to a certain extent). Flying "off times" is cheaper. If Delta makes enough of a change that I can freely change flights to fit MY schedule a little better, I'll take advantage of it.

I am actually fine with my flight times and dates.

My MSP-MCO flight is a non-stop leaving MSP at 2:44. I wouldn't mind moving to the 6am flight that connects in ATL. It would get us into MCO 7 hours earlier.....

I won't switch from the non-stop MCO-MSP, but I would be glad to move it a day later if they decide to mess with that flight time....

Always trying to squeeze the most out of a spring break Disney trip!

I have flown the same week out of BWI for about six years on Airtran and they have never once changed my flight times.

I always pick a flight I can live with on Airtran. If it isn't the best flight, I just wait for the time change that almost always comes. Then I call and switch to the better flight. Airtran is great for being able to do this.

Shhh...don't tell my DH...but I am praying for the same thing. We are on the nonstop leaving at 244 out of MSP...but I am really hoping they either switch my times or get rid of the non stop so I can snag the earlier flight..

Question for those that have switched flights due to time changes. Do you think they would let me switch to fly out of a different airport? Our flights out of Pittsburgh and returning to Pittsburgh have both had time changes. I would really like a flight out of Akron. The flights from/to Akron cost more, how does that work?

Yes, they will work with you... give them a call....

My departing flight did change by 3 minutes a few weeks ago.... but the arrival actually moved 4 minutes earlier.... I can't bring myself to ask for a change for that...... I will wait for a bigger change...

When are you going? We are going spring break in March.....

Interesting. We fly Airtran out of FNT (flint, MI) and have had our flight times change by a half hour or so. I didn't even realize it was an option to request changes based on schedule changes. Do they charge the difference in fare?

I feel like a newbie for not knowing this!!

Thanks!

No, they do NOT charge the difference in price if you change to another flight.

We were originally scheduled for a 5:58 pm from Allentown to MCO on Thanksgiving night. They switched it to 5:30 - I was okay with that.

Yesterday it was switched to 7:30 pm with an arrival of 10:00 pm - not okay with that since we probably wouldn't get to WL until midnight or so with a 7 year old and an CRT ressie at 8:05 the next morning.

I called and we were switched to some of the last few seats for Wed night.
So we're flying on one of the busiest days of the year for about 25% of the cost of what that flight costs now. We're staying at ASMo that night and still come out ahead of Wed's flight prices.
