*Terms and Conditions: Fees on A+ Credit Bookings are extra — the September 11th security fee of up to $5.00 per one-way is not included. A+ Rewards seats are subject to availability and blackout dates.
† A+ Rewards credit transactions can be completed online at airtran.com or by calling 1-888-3-APLUS-8 (1-888-327-5878).
Free** Companion Travel: A companion account must be established by redemption of a Companion Pass award using the sponsor’s A+ Rewards credits. The selected companion must have an A+ Rewards account; if they do not have one, an account will be established for them. The sponsor may change their companion once each quarter by contacting the A+ Rewards Desk at 1-888-3-A-PLUS-8 (1-888-327-5878). Sponsor and companion travel may be booked separately; however, all companion travel must be made with the sponsor on the same flights. All companion travel bookings must be made by contacting the A+ Rewards Desk. Companions that wish to receive a one-way Business Class upgrade must redeem four A+ Rewards credits from their sponsor or may pay for an upgrade beginning midnight the day prior to the departure date.
