"With Spring Break just around the corner, AirTran Airways is offering
seasonal flights to popular Florida destinations for residents in colder

for AirTran Airways. "If it seems like warm weather will never come to your
area, AirTran Airways will take you to it -- and we won't charge you for a

can relax in comfort on one of our quiet Boeing aircraft for a few short hours
and step off the plane surrounded by sunshine and palm trees."
