In Flight Tweet Ups

Posted: 06/23/2010 | By: sportyd

The phenomenon of tweet ups has peaked and everyone is either hosting or attending them - whether planned in advance or impromptu - most in the Twitter world have heard of, if not been to, a tweet up.  I’ve seen tweet-ups at hotels, bars, restaurants, parks, ball games and bathrooms (ok, maybe not bathrooms, but bars are definitely the most popular).  Diamond PR is even hosting a “Taco Truck Tweet Up” at the end of TBEX (follow us for details on the location). 

But I’ve still yet to see an “In-Flight Tweet Up” with fellow travelers while 30,000 feet up.  So, in honor of the gaggles of bloggers converging on NY for TBEX ‘10, traveling from across the country (and globally in some cases), I’m encouraging everyone to find their fellow travelers for In-Flight Tweet Ups.  To help you find other TBEX attendees traveling with you, post your flight information in the comments section below and check back to look for others who will be traveling with you.  Then tweet to and about your #InFlightTweetUp group and get the TBEX party started early… before you even touch ground.  Plus, you’ll have a new friend or two to share a cab with when you arrive in NY. 

*Disclaimer: Congregating in plane aisles and galleys not encouraged or endorsed by this blog and will not be held responsible for dirty looks and scolding by flight attendants.  Pre- and Post-Flight Tweet Ups in boarding areas and baggage claim might provide for better “gathering” areas.

The crew from Diamond PR is on AA Flight #1256 from Miami at 8 am Friday morning… can’t wait. Anyone flying with us?

Neat idea! I’m flying ORD to LGA at 8:30am on Friday. I arrive at 11:42.

If anyone wants to share a cab into the city around 12/12:30 on Friday, let me know!

I’m flying Seattle to Newark on Thursday, getting to Newark around 5:30pm - and I’m hoping to have Gogo inflight WiFi, too. smile

I arrive from Halifax at 730am (NYC time) on Friday and already have a car booked to take me to lower Manhattan between 14th and 12th - anyone else headed that way then?
