I have been using Twitter for years and have noticed that the airlines have been fairly aggressive in using Twitter for airline travel deals.

Here are some recent examples:

• US Airways – Flying through L.A., Tampa or Boston tomorrow? Relax in the US Airways Club for just $25! Stay tuned for our special. https://bit.ly/g3ecI0
• Virgin America – Have you seen our airplane shaped snowflakes? Take advantage of these last min fares & fly through Jan 4. https://vgn.am/6011uLm3
• SouthWest Air – Are you ready for your chance to win $1,000 Southwest Gift Card? We’re playing the #12daysofLUV read the rules here: https://cot.ag/h16orp
• Our Less Is More sale returns for one day only! https://bit.ly/JBLessIsMore

Now please understand, this is the holiday travel season and the deals are fairly sparse.  But, mark my words, when Jan 2, 2011 get here – be prepared to see the Twitter airline deals rocket for the skies.
