Green, OH: Imagine warm breezes, a view of the ocean from your beach chair and a fruity drink in hand - this could be you in Ft. Myers. This popular winter getaway is back just in time for the bone-chilling Ohio winter. Just think, in the time it takes you to trade in your winter coat for a new swimsuit you can be on your way nonstop to Southwest Florida International Airport in Ft. Myers (RSW) from the Akron-Canton Airport (CAK).

"With convenient non-stop service from Akron-Canton to Orlando, Tampa and now Fort Myers, AirTran Airways makes it easy for Northeast Ohio residents to escape the snow and cold this winter to a sunny Florida destination," said John P. Kirby, Senior Director of Strategic Planning for AirTran Airways. 

"Ft. Myers is the number one winter getaway for Northeast Ohioans," said Kristie Van Auken, Senior Vice-President and Chief Marketing & Communications Officer. "We are thrilled that AirTran Airways is bringing back the service again this year and better yet, at a price customers can afford."Of course, AirTran's other Florida non-stops from CAK, Orlando and Tampa, are popular too. Better yet, AirTran Airways offers business class seating with XM satellite radio on every flight aboard their comfy, new Boeing jets. So say "goodbye" to the Ohio winter and "hello" to sinking your toes into the warm sand.
