Ohio People! Anyone ever fly out of Rickenbacker?

[CarissaDance]

I've heard that flights from Rickenbacker AFB are really inexpensive to Orlando. I checked their website and cant find any information on pricing or whether they still offer passenger flights. Anyone know?

I'm pretty sure they don't offer that service anymore. Southwest or Airtran is typically the cheapest from CMH.

ok thanks. Have you ever flown AirTran? I'd never heard of them before I started flight searches for Disney.

We live in Columbus (Marysville) and have flown airtrain, Southwest, US Air and Delta into MCO. When we flew airtran, we actually went to Dayton and parked at a hotel and used the service park for free. Airtran was probably one of the best flights we have been on BUT...they changed our flight time over 8 times, we were getting nervous that the whole thing was going to fall apart. Also, we have trips coming up and no one could beat Southwest, now that is honesty the carrier we fly the most, never have we had an issue wiht them either, just the plane was more crowded. We check prices daily and flight times and schedule, you will probably find the best on Southwest. I don't believe Rickenbacker is offering the flights out anymore, good luck.

Thanks so much for the info. We will likely use SW since we've flown them before.
