What's the Buzz?
Delta offers online discount

The Cincinnati Enquirer
Delta Air Lines began a $10-discount online sale Wednesday for tickets to and from Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, the airline's second-largest hub.
Tickets must be purchased on the airline's Web site, www.delta.com, and must be bought by Sept. 30, and the sale only applies to the continental 48 states.
Travel agents can get the discount for clients who do not have Internet connections. With the new reductions, the fare to Tampa, Fla., is $196.75 for a 21-day advance ticket with a Saturday night stay-over. A ticket to Boston is $263.81.
Delta officials said there are only a limited number of low-fare seats and sale seats available on each flight. The sale comes on the heels of business and leisure fare cuts by Delta this month out of Cincinnati, which has routinely had some of the highest fares in the nation.
