Jet Blue is twit­ter­ing at jet­bluecheeps. Cus­tomers are sign­ing up for last minute seat deals and receiv­ing notice of a block of 25 last minute seats at pretty good prices. What counts if the cur­rent num­ber fol­low­ing: 45,000.

The dan­ger with offer­ing these last-minute deals on twit­ter is that the prices can appear to be a false dis­count for some trav­el­ers. One reader com­plained that an out­bound fare from Boston to Chicago for $9 was dis­hon­est, since the return flight was $160.

A quick check today shows all the trips offered are round-trip, lock­ing in twit­ter trav­el­ers to a two or three-day stay.

ASM likes twit­ter for last-minute vacan­cies of all kinds: doctor’s or dentist’s appoint­ments, your restau­rant gets a last-minute can­cel­la­tion, your spa sud­denly has an open­ing. If you have your social media in place, you can fill those last minute spaces.
