If you are traveling as a small group, split up your ticket purchases for the same flight. Sometimes it is cheaper than purchasing as a group.

Check the ticket prices with AirTran Airways first. Then check the travel discounters to see if you can get it any cheaper. Often times, AirTran Airways will run a better promotion during a short time window.
