which airline for Atlanta to Orlando?

[luvdzny]

We are planning a trip in June, we will be flying into Atlanta from Milwaukee and staying there for a few days, then flying from Atlanta to Orlando to go to WDW. Which airline has the best fares? We are also considering renting a car to drive from Atlanta to Orlando, but if airfare is cheap enough that would be the easiest. Thanks

Not from Atlanta but I know that Atlanta is a hub for Air Tran. I fly them a lot from Flint to MCO and they always have good rates.

I flew Airtran for the 1st time a couple of weeks ago. I felt that they did a good job--we were late leaving because of weather and "maintenance issues", and missed our connections, but they had agents at the gate with new boarding passes for our new flight and a packet with meal vouchers and a flight certificate. There are several direct flights out to Orlando from Atlanta.

Airtran will probably be the cheapest for a one way flight like that also.

Either Delta or Airtran...

I compare prices between Delta and Airtran--sometimes Delta is cheaper. (bit I usually drive--7 hours)

You should sign up for Airtran's websavers on their website www.airtran.com and they will notify you of any sales. Currently there aren't any, but should be in a couple of weeks or so.
Delta will usually match any sales.
DH flies Airtran all the time and really likes them.
