MKE-BWI $108 R/T Majors No Min 7day

Available every day except Sunday. I assumed this was an AirTran match fare but it's only showing up on the big six at this time. AirTran and Midwest are $10 more.

This has been posted many times. Its actually a $98 base fare to compete with airtrans $49 each way fare. Should come out to about $116.50 with taxes, used to be $111.50 before oct 1st. I guess the government added a $5 additional fee starting the 1st.

I apologize for not doing a search, but I can tell you that it has come and gone over those few months, cause it wasn't there last week when I had to book a trip.

So...it's back

So true. Many of the fares listed here are time sensitive so the "do a search" mantra does not apply IMHO.

The extra bucks for tickets are for the Sept 11 security fees, reinstituted October 1 after a summer hiatus.

GREAT rates are also available from DCA.
NW routing, FYI, permits IAH on CO metal!
...'tis often a jungle jet, however.
