FL sale starting at $48

One day sale, with fares starting @$48 each way, for MKE-DEN.

http://www.airtran.com/sale/MKE.aspx?saleID=580

Other cities also on sale (ATL, MCO, BWI, DCA), but it looks like this is a little special LUV for MKE.

Just checking a half-dozen city pairs, FL fares have been reduced for Fri/Sat/Sun travel as well in the same period.

First real opportunity for me to book multiple trips this year.

Will Frontier match those sale fares? Stay tuned.

I just checked TPA-MKE and the fares don't look any different compared to the past few days, still at $167. (I know there's a cheaper non-stop option but I'm looking to fly through ATL just for the fun of it )

Just when I thought the FT people were smart... What's your ATL draw? Popeye's, the smoking rooms or something else?

IMO Always take the direct to avoid possibility of compounding delays.

Good to see the old airtran back for one sale. TOok advantage of it for a couple of round trips plus I still get the 3x credit promo to apply.

These one day fare sales are interesting. In the past, it usually took DL a day to match FL's fare sales. Perhaps this is their strategy to keep those bargain-hunters on FL.

Of course for a sale to gain real traction on the FL side, I'm sure it has to last longer than a day.
