AirTran - Booking Question

[Juliadlf]

We are not familiar with AirTran. Are they like JetBlue who releases 8 months in advance for future booking?

 

Thanks

That sounds about right. AirTran is my line of choice. Both JetBlue and AirTran rank at the top in service in the annual rankings. They are expanding and probably buying Midwest Airlines late fall. That will greatly extend their national coverage. Planes are newer than the legacy airlines.

hdawson -

I have a question - can you book one leg of your trip and then wait for the return part to appear online? The date we are leaving for our cruise is posted, but the date coming home isn't. Or should I wait? They aren't even showing March 2008 dates yet.

Thanks. I was beginning to think that all the flights I was looking at for next spring were fully booked. Odd they don't have a message that comes up like JetBlue which tells you about how far in advance you can book.
