discount airlines to Florida

Other than SouthWest Airlines -- what other discount airlines fly from NYC to Florida (Specifically Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area)?

Thanks!
Cindy

Airtran via Atlanta.
Jetblue direct from JFK to various FL cities.
Spirit from LGA to Ft Lauderdale.

In addition to those already mentioned:

Song (Delta's discount subsidiary):
www.flysong.com

And don't neglect to check the "normal airlines" such as US Airways, AA, Delta and Continental as well on Orbitz, Travelocity, Expedia etc. Their prices are normally competitive with the discount carriers.

Hope this helps,
Andre

I heard USA3000 is a good site to get cheap flight to Ft.Lauderdale. Also, check out Orbitz...i just flew to miami two weekends ago for $175.

there are many airline search engines available, try qiko.com and or sidestep.com

ATA is usually inexpensive.

We are flying Spirit Airlines
RT FLL-LGA for $135.00 each.
Spirit is no-frills. We flew
them RT from FLL to Cancun,
we arrived on time and
our luggage made it too.
