Nice to see that some company’s are still thinking about how to surprise the customer positively.

Lufthansa

Lufthansa has set up a new service named MySkyStatus that automatically posts departure, the current position of the flight and arrival to Twitter or Facebook. That way connections can follow your travels.

Typical status updates:

Clicking the link in the update, of course, directs you to the Lufthansa MySkyStatus page with a Google Map of the flight’s position, meaning that Lufthansa is getting free social media promotion from people travelling on all airlines:

A great case for Web 2.0 adoption!
