Jet Airways flies and now Tweets too
Over 500 followers in less than a week -- expect the Twitter page to out do the suped up Facebook page in the long run.India's most business-like airline Jet Airways, today annouced its leap into the world of social media. An extremely staid looking press release was sent out to say, that the Jet Airways communities on Facebook (www.facebook.com/jetairways) and Twitter (www.twitter.com/jetairways) will provide guests "with news updates about flight schedules, new customer programs, route additions, services and special offers for its three airlines Jet Airways, Jet Airways Konnect (its all-economy, no-frills service) and JetLite.
Acting Jet Airways CEO Nikos Kardassis believes that "Our guests and customers will find these channels especially helpful as it will provide them with access to real-time information." We're not sure if this complements or duplicates their JetMobile service, but if you do have an unconvetional query, chances are you'll get an answer by posting your question on the Jet Airways Twitter page.
Considering the delays these days, especially on the Delhi sectors due to fog, I'm quite sure access to Twitter will be helpful.
