Twitter Travel: Top Secret Southwest Airlines Announcement

August 7, 2008 at 11:07 AM | by | Comment (1)

Twitter, the oft-busted-but-still-fun microblogging platform, is quickly becoming the go-to place for airline news from tech-savvy carriers. Latest example? Southwest Airlines' mysterious tweet about a big announcement coming later today.

Says the LCC:

Twitter followers should know first! Big announcement on www.blogsouthwest.com in about an hour....consider yourselves informed!

The last big Southwest announcement we remember from Twitter was about Monster energy drinks. Here's hoping this one's a bit more interesting!

Update: It is more interesting. The airline is looking for a "blog-o-spondent" for Nuts about Southwest.

yes, mildly more interesting

than previous Twitter announcements.

however, i am CONVINCED Southwest is going to release a CD of songs from its flight crews. They are always singing ditties when you get on the plane about etiquette, safety, thanks for choosing Southwest and whatever holiday it is.

I once had two flight attendants sing like real songs for us--one was good and we all clapped loudly. The other--not so good and it was forced applause. Like I need this audition drama when I am on an airplane?
