New way for Airtran to lose $$

[inthewind]

Here I am in Indy at the FBO looking at my drink cup from Wendy's. Apparently if I buy 64 drinks at Wendy's I get a free round trip ticket. Who's genius freakin' idea is this? That's about $64 -minus cost of cup/drink x 64 or about $60 for a round trip. This is just one more way to lose money by a LCC. WTFO?

Right, Indy already tried that, so did Delta, NWA, the list goes on

After 64 cokes from Wendy's, you will definitely need to buy the $289.00 commemorative edition Shamu Harness (seatbelt extender) so we will get our hands on your money- one way, or another- little Mister.

Oh, and Chuck Yogurt will be standing by to get his hands on your little Mister, little Mister.

Actually if you read the small print, the 64 drinks must be purchased by Dec 31, 2005. You better double bag your flight diapers if you plan on a free trip. I'm sure this is a gimmick where joe and bob get a free lunch for the promotion, and you know how joe and bob like something for noth'n.

Check out Ebay, looks like a lot of people are making money off of this.
