AirTran Airways A+ Rewards - Multi-City Itinerary

Hello all,

I've been a UA flyer myself due to their international routes, but is glad to find out that AirTran is expanding their services in MKE. Anyhow, I'm trying to book tickets for my parents who would come here from thousands of miles away, so I would like to explore a multi-city itinerary for them. Yet when I looked at AirTran's website, the multi-city is just an open jaw, not A-B-C-A type of itinerary I would like to book. Can someone tell me whether this is indeed the case, and how I can get the tickets without booking an open jaw and a one-way ticket. Another question is, since they don't live here, is there any value for them to get A+ credits? Would it worth to sign them up, and transfer credits to me?

Thank you

You might be able to book all of the legs on one-way tickets and then call customer service to see if they can consolidate all of them onto one itinerary/PNR.

A travel booking site, such as Travelocity, will allow the multi-city itinerary.

All Airtran fares are one way, so I agree with the previous poster--just add a separate ticket for each segment that doesn't "fit" into the website booking format.

Actually, I usually book even simple round trips on Airtran that way -- two reservations,one for each OW segment.
