Air flight tips needed - last minute travel

[StevieG]

TT,

As far as I know, The only airline that promotes last minute fares is Airtran, and they do it for students only.

The airlines have gotten better at filling flights, and with jet fuel prices up, many have annouced fare increases.

I checked JetBlue, Ted (United), Southwest, US Airways, all wanted around $220 for flying out today, returning Friday.
