WWYD AirTran

[Mickey527]

I want to go to WDW with my son and grandson either for my birthday in May or for the 4th of July.
right now Air Tran is having $49 flights from Philly, a 3 hour drive from my home.
I usually fly out of Hartford, or NY, both about 1 hour, or Providence or NJ, both about 1 1/2 hours away.
If you were me would you wait to see if an airline that flys closer to home has a special or take the $49 Air Tran bargain?
I usually pay around $50 - $60 a flight and have always found something in the past but lately Ding has been showing nothing.
WWYD if you were not the taking chances type?

I am not in your area, but I had been watching fares for quite a while in the midst that sw would realease something really great, I finally said heck with it and went with airtran. We are flying out of indy, but we got a great deal. Have you checked your surrounding cities to see if airtran flies in there. I have heard a lot of compalints about sw prices, from what I have been told they had to raise them due to the fact they are paying higher rates for fuel.
You might also try using a search engine just to see what comes up. I like sidestep.com.
