Airtran Standby Always Good Fallback
Thursday July 2, 2009
Last minute US airfares literally too much, and can't afford to drive? Even using a student airfare finder like STA may not produce an airfare price adequate for practical penuriousness and spontaneity -- student standby from Airtran, though, may be just the ticket 
for last minute plans. Airtran offers one way domestic standby tickets at a discount to travelers under 23 years old; called Airtran U, the student airfares are either $69 or $89, no matter when you fly -- provided you go standby.
Flying standby is no picnic, but it's a whole lot cheaper than paying full freight for an impulse or emergency US airfare -- and Airtran U is often cheaper than any domestic student airfare, period. Think about Airtran U next time you need a last minute student airfare and the travel cost exasperation exacerbated by excessively expensive gas may be alleviated.
