what did you do? :confused3 I have called several times and asked, but all three CMs that I got said they couldn't see any flights on Airtran at all from my departure city, and I had them check on several different dates. Airtran is flying SEA-MCO. I can pull up flights on Airtran's website. They are starting service at the end of the month...maybe that's why? Any ideas? The best fares I am getting now are $350ish. I am sure there will be a sale between now and end of August, but I want to nail down my plans. :badpc:
 
I would love to know too. I called and was told the only carrier they used out of Philly is USAir and they wanted $240/person.

I have my paper tickets in hand for the $129 RT out of Philly. Maybe call back and get a different CM.
 
It doesn't include the west coast. I talked to 3 different cm's and a supervisor. Unfortunatly for them the original cm told me it was available (and she admitted that to the manager) so the manager honored it for me :cool1: . Saved me about $800 on 4 rt tickets :banana: :cheer2: . I love that WDW really holds customer service so high!

To the OP: I live in the Tri Cities, Wa. :wave: How about you? When are you going? Since you can't get the airtran deal try Delta. They are still showing $228 out of Pasco so Seattle Inter. should be better than that. Good luck. :wave:
 

Hockeymommy, thank you! It was driving me crazy! I am glad that they gave you the fare. I did think it sounded too good to be true that from anywhere it would be $129.

We live near Seattle. :wave2: I'll have to take a closer look at Delta. I have seen them nice and low like that, so I guess I will have to be patient. Maybe if I hold out long enough, I'll get the nonstops on Alaska on sale. :woohoo:
 
I booked the $129 AirTran deal... I called Disney a few times and they could never bring up any AirTran flights.. they kept giving me a quote for Delta for around $250 and said they are showing nothing else available, which I know isn't right because Detroit is a hub for NWA and Spirit and there are always plenty of flights available on those airlines.

So I kept checking online through the Disney website... I would price out a package w/air selecting AirTran as my airline of choice.. after a couple of days of trying, the $129 airfare came up and I booked our package online. The next day I just called up and cancelled the previous package I had booked without air.

It might be worth a try.
 
Alot of times you are better off booking your own air. Disney doesn't always have flights with the low cost carriers.. I know we always have to book ourselves for Jet Blue...easy beans :cool1:
 
When I called (about 5 days ago) the rate they gave me was $158pp from Buffalo with Airtran and the times I wanted but when my friend called a couple days later the cost jumped to $235. She ended up getting the $158 but had to adjust her dates so I think they might only have a certain amount of seats disignated for each flight at that price.
 
Darlene, thanks for the tip! I have tried it a few times, and it won't let me pick Airtran, but I will keep on trying. :cool1:
