GOOD TO KNOW
The Complete Guide to Twitter Lingo
Did I miss anyone or place? Find a broken link? Please leave a comment below. Thanks!
oops! Somehow you missed me! @PointsandTravel – https://twitter.com/Pointsandtravel
Frequent flyer and traveler every six weeks for the last 18 years!
Oh, and you left off Stephanie Sheppard @sjsheppa PR/Social Media Pro for @HyattPR
https://twitter.com/sjsheppa
@FlyerTalk has a HUGE community of frequent flyers who are a great resource for advice…
good catch! i will add them now
Hey Johnny, hope you’re well! Do you know Annie Fitzsimmons? She is National Geographic Traveler’s Urban Insider blogger and is teriffic. Good to add to a future list. Happy eve, Rebecca Widness
Of course, email me her handle and will add it when I can
Great list Johnny!
This is a fantastic list, but I think you should add the online booking sites that millions of people already use to book and track travel…!
This Twitter list will come in handy. Thanks for including me as a Travel Blogger/Writer resource.
I think your links for ONT are wrong – I was tipped off by the fact that Burbank is Bob Hope Airport, not LA/Ontario.
Burbank Bob Hope (BUR): https://twitter.com/BobHopeAirport
LA/Ontario International (ONT): https://twitter.com/ONT_Official
Thanks I just made the changes!
Great list, but you missed us. :) We help people choose and plan their career breaks and sabbaticals.
Great list, Johnny! Believe you missed @TheCultureur–thanks! :)
Love this list! Bookmarking!
Hey Johnny – Maybe us? We’re working to help families travel – @greenwooddavis from http://www.globetrottingmama.com.
For sure!
Hi, Johnny. I’d love to be included in your list. I write about all things Caribbean – and shopping, too!
Great list Johnny. Would love to see @TravelMaestro included under the travel bloggers. :) http://www.travelmaestro.covingtontravel.com
Starwood Hotels can be found @StarwoodBuzz and each of the brands have their own as well. This is a really awesome list that I will be bookmarking and sharing. Thanks for pulling this together.
This is a great list! Hope we can also be included here. @FundMyTravel – we tweet about #travelfund, #crowdfunding, #studyabroad, #volunteerabroad and of course, #travel in general! Thanks!
How about @USNewsTravel? We offer travel guides, feature articles, destination rankings and hotel rankings and reviews!
What a great list John – I found lots of new people to follow. I’m proud to be included – thanks. ~Jerome
Great list. If you add a Luxury section you should include @journeyPod and @luxury_travel
We would love to be added too! @tzelltravel
Great list, but no travel podcasts like @amateurtraveler @indietravel and @travelin10
Whatchu talkin’ about Willis? It’s there
For tips on authentic (not touristy) travel, I hope your readers will follow @4Luxury_Travel
Please think of adding Lufthansa_usa, Frankfurt airport and definitely Lufthansa Magazine. Follow them and see.
If you ever create a category of Funny, Opinionated Women Behaving Stupidly then my sister and I deserve inclusion!
Hi Johnny,
This is an awesome list. A solid list of new people to follow. Another good addition to your list would be Matt Gibson (@xpatmatt), adventure travel writer and photographer.
Also a great a good travel site @FlightNetwork.
John, feel free to add @TravMediaUSA — nearly 16K followers and growing, Tweeting travel news, information for travel PR folks, tourism board news, and TravMedia information of course!
Hi Johnny – do you know about @travelwritersuk? Represents 100 UK travel writers on Twitter. The Twitter list of members is at https://twitter.com/TravelwritersUK/lists/travelwritersukmembers.
– Andrew (@andrewsanger)
It is a great list, thank you for sharing it! I don’t know if I’m worthy just yet; but I have a distinct niche that no one on your list shares. Providing families everything they need to afford culturally rich family travel – starting with convincing them of the incredible economic and cultural rewards of international home exchange. The Trusting Traveler @trustingtravel

Great list, so of course I had to follow a few more twitter profiles! I noticed the Twitter link for Susan Magrino Agency led to the wrong profile. Here is the correct link: https://twitter.com/magrinopr or @MagrinoPR.
Safe Travels!
