Fly to Orlando for $59 one-way
Can you squeeze in a family getaway to Florida before summer ends? If that's not likely, maybe there's a possibility to do so over an autumn weekend? Here's why you should consider the trip.
First, AirTran is currently running a $59 one-way sale to Orlando when trips are finished on or before Dec. 15 ($69.70 including all taxes and fees). Naturally there are blackout dates surrounding Thanksgiving weekend: Nov. 23, 24, 27-29.
To qualify, travel Mondays-Thursdays or Saturdays each way. Trips on Fridays or Sundays are $74 each way. Give at least a ten-day advance purchase notice and buy tickets through Aug. 24.
Compliment your wise airfare bargain with a resort deal from the Best Western in the Walk Disney World Resort. On stays now through Oct. 31, nightly rates are just $59 (regularly $139) and includes complimentary welcome drinks and buffet breakfast for two each day.
