Thread: AirTran Fans, last flight (FLT#1) 12/28/14...Awww 1993 - 2014

AirTran Airways will be fully integrated into Southwest Airlines by the end of 2014:


AirTran Airways flight 1 (Southwest 5001) will operate on Sunday, 12/28/14 as the carrier’s final scheduled departure. The evening flight from ATL - TPA reprises the first flight the carrier operated on October 26, 1993 (as ValuJet). SWA announced its acquisition of AirTran Airways in September 2010, and closed the transaction on May 2, 2011. The FAA awarded the Company a single operating certificate for the two carriers on March 1, 2012, and the Company plans to close 2014 with wholly owned subsidiary AirTran fully-integrated into Southwest Airlines serving a network of 93 destinations in five countries.
