Sun Country's spring break sale is good but....

Sun Country spring break sale is for travel now through March 6. Does anyone have spring break that early?

Does anyone's spring break start before March 7? Sun Country must think so. Its new sale offers a 50 percent discount off coach airfare for two to Orlando, Ft. Myers, Tampa, West Palm Beach and Laughlin.

It's a great deal, but you need to travel on short notice. You must complete your travel by March 6 to take advantage of the sale price. Sun Country's website makes it really easy to see the one-way fares, which are listed day-by-day on a monthly calendar. For example, a trip from Mpls. to Orlando leaving on Feb. 22 is $123, returning to Mpls. on Feb. 28 is $109 for a total of $232. But if I use the promo code of FEBSALE I can buy two tickets for $232.

Another advantage of Sun Country is that you can upgrade to first class for an additional $118 at the counter, if seats are available.

If you've been saying to yourself that you want to escape the winter on the cheap, this is a good start.
