First it was MC Hammer, now it’s Stephen Fry…

… sharing their experiences of flying, that is.

Recently I wrote about how MC Hammer shared with us the process of catching a flight: Please fasten your seatbelts, it’s Hammer Time!

Hammer flew Virgin Atlantic, but for Twitter supremo Fry it has to be British Airways (then onto Singapore Airlines’ new A380 at London).

I like Fry’s style of twittering (see my previous post: Can Madagascar benefit from the celebrity factor?)

But this particular journey started just 23 hours ago:

At JFK, he got a foot massage:

Not much on flight reporting – next stop is the A380 at London:

Via TwitPic, we get a peek at the luxiourous seats (cabins)

He likes them a lot!

That’s all for now, I think he’s still in the air.

As with MC Hammer, there’s enourmous scope for media agencies to work more closely with celebrities (even the general public!) to create a buzz around a new route/product, or some kind of other reporting.

STA Travel is already getting traveller to send in Twitter reprts (link coming soon, but it was in this week’s issue of Travel Trade Gazette).

I think the media agency behind Stephen Fry and his Twitter domination is a firm called we are social. Today I read they took part in an interesting “geeky” project with Eurostar, so I’ll look into that shortly, but these types of activities are definitely getting more interesting.
