- Members Will Earn Double Credits for Flights Booked and Flown in September Originating Out of Atlanta -

ORLANDO, Sept. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AirTran Airways, a subsidiary of AirTran Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: AAI), announced today that the airline will offer A+ Rewards members double A+ Rewards credits when they purchase a round-trip ticket originating from Atlanta to any AirTran Airways destination in the month of September. AirTran Airways' frequent flier program A+ Rewards already allows travelers to earn free* flights faster than other airlines' loyalty programs -- and now Atlanta frequent fliers can reap the rewards twice as fast.

When A+ Rewards members purchase travel now through September 30, 2008, they will earn four A+ Rewards credits for every round-trip originating out of Atlanta and flown by September 30, 2008, instead of the usual two credits. The promotion makes it possible for members to earn a free* round-trip ticket when they purchase just four round-trip tickets with AirTran Airways and register for the promotion online. The sign-up is free* to become a member of the A+ Rewards program and travelers must be A+ Rewards members at the time of departure to earn double A+ credits through this offer. Sign up for A+ Rewards and register for the promotion online at aplusrewards.com before traveling.

"At AirTran Airways, we believe that loyalty deserves recognition, and we are proud to provide our A+ Rewards members with great deals on a regular basis to make their travel experience both rewarding and affordable," said Tad Hutcheson, vice president of marketing and sales for AirTran Airways. "Our Atlanta double A+ Rewards credits offer is one of the many benefits of being an A+ Rewards member and flying with AirTran Airways."
