Last year Southwest Airlines and Visit Florida teamed up to offer a $25 discount on Southwest flights to/from Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Jacksonville, Key West, Orlando, Palm Beach, Panama City Beach, Tampa Bay. Well turns out the promotion is available again for 2012.

The official Visit Florida page highlights the promotion, which then directs people to the Share a Little Sunshine Facebook page and app.

After Liking and allowing access for the app, you select your favorite team and follow the process of sending invites to your friends. Unless you have a dummy Facebook account, which many due for these type of promotion, you will need to send the invite to a friend that will give you the code. In other words, I could send an invite to my wife, and she could do likewise for me.

Fortunately, this year there is no waiting around for an email with a promotional code. This time, your friends automatically receive their discount code via the app. After sending the notice to my wife, she instantly received the code, and likewise for me.
