Cheap US Flights this Summer on AirTran

With soaring gas prices and airlines still struggling, the summer travel season in the United States is shaping up to be an expensive one. Doesn’t it suck how that works? You save up your vacation time or you are finally done with school and the next thing you know the tickets you could have gotten for peanuts back in February are now through the roof. It happens every year.

Fortunately there are cheapie airlines around that buck the trend. AirTran is one of them. The Little Guys continue to churn out decently priced tickets no matter what time of year it says it is on the calendar. For example, you can fly from San Francisco to Boston for $164 one way. That is really quite good. You can also flee Detroit and go to Orlando for $94 one way, not that I would recommend going to Orlando in the summer. I lived there for a number of years and I sweat just thinking about the heat and humidity.

Anyway, it is worth your effort to check out what AirTran is offering in terms of summer flights. In some cases they even beat Southwest, Jet Blue and the other budget carriers.
