Last Minute Student Standby With Airtran U
Trying to get around over the holidays at the last minute, and last minute airfares are bringing you down? That’s partly because last minute airfare’s always spendy, but partly because Thanksgiving week is what’s called a peak air travel time and airfares do peak accordingly. If you can leave on Thanksgiving Thursday, you’ve an awesome option: standby — absolutely worth a shot with Airtran U , Airtran’s student-only standby airfares for flyers 18-22 years old. $69 one way tickets to or from most cities the eastern airline serves and $99 to or from a handful of its “long haul” routes (like Seattle), but fares are blacked out Saturday and Sunday (consider catching a bus or Amtrak back — you can get student discounts ).
