- AirTran Airways Tracks Santa's One-Night World Tour - ORLANDO, Fla., Dec. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AirTran Airways, a subsidiary of AirTran Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:AAI), is pleased to present its third and final annual Satellite-based Aviation Navigational Tracking Apparatus (S.A.N.T.A.) report. The following information regarding Santa Claus' international flight is based on data from AirTran Airways' System Operations Control (SOC) center in Orlando: -- Satellites tracked Santa to South America, where he was spotted at a beach in Brazil feeding his reindeer cookies before continuing his world tour. Although Rudolph's nose is almost as bright as the sun, Santa did not need sunscreen. -- Apparently, the night air is a little chillier than usual this year as the jolly old gift bearer stopped in Guatemala to warm-up at a volcano outside of Antigua before leaving Central America. -- Radar signals were lost as Santa entered the Bermuda Triangle. -- It is apparent that Santa's heading stateside -- it is AirTran Airways' recommendation that all believers have their milk and cookies ready in anticipation of his arrival.
