I know a lot of people haven’t gotten on the Twitter train yet, but I’m here to tell you a little story how Twitter freaking saved my life today. Okay, maybe “saved my life”, is a bit dramatic. But still, it was really cool.
Okay, so I’m flying to Vancouver this week and I spent a better part of an hour trying to find my itinerary in my email today. I could not find it for the life of me. I even started doubting if I even bought my ticket at all. I tried calling Westjet, but as everyone knows, their new call centre is about useful as me in a shampoo aisle. I know they are working on it, but I didn’t really have time. They weren’t even putting people on hold, they were so overwhelmed. I was screwed.
So I decided to look up Westjet on Twitter and see if anyone there was around to help.
I posted the following message: “I seriously can’t remember if I bought my flight. @westjet I think it’s November XXth. Michael Morrison DM pretty please!”
Within minutes someone at Westjet got ahold of me, I was shocked. We exchanged a couple of private messages and within 15 minutes, I got ahold of my itinerary! It was awesome. I don’t know who it was a West Jet, but they saved me!
Companies who still haven’t gotten on the Twitter-train should take note, it’s an amazing resource for customers. I know I’m typically loyal to Air Canada, but for me, today was a complete game changer.
Imagine what Twitter could do for you!?

Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any tips?
