Porter And Their Fan Pages

Airlines and Fan Pages don’t necessarily go hand in hand, but they can at times be useful for consumers to share their experiences and gripes. Porter has verified accounts all across the social media board. With the fact Porter is still a relatively small company so it should be no surprise there aren’t a large amount of fan pages.

On facebook, there is a Porter Airlines page that is a Personal Page where you request them as a friend. Once you are friends with them there are a plethora of people expressing their opinions on the page.




Porter has no “fan pages” on twitter, however they do have a large amount of people tweeting about them both positively and negatively. Twitter is a great way for people to share their experience with the company and to possibly be recognized. Below is an example of two positive & negative tweets.



Last but not least Instagram, again following the trend there aren’t many fan pages. Most of the pages with Porter Airlines in the title appear just to be people who have the Instagram handle & use a version of Porter’s logo & branding.

Air Canada Fan Pages

Believe it or not there are fan pages made for almost every brand or company out there. These can vary on different social media accounts such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube or even a blog. Today we will be looking at 3 fan pages for Air Canada.

One of their fan pages is on Instagram, the name of the account is “Air_Canada_Lover”. They have over 40 posts that consist of photographs of the staff/crew and the airplanes. They however, don’t post descriptions with their photos regularly, if they do it’s usually just describing what airplane that they have posted. Air_Canada_Lover’s last post was posted 39 weeks ago.

Another fan page that was dedicated to Air Canada is on Facebook. This group is simply named Air Canada. This is an unofficial Air Canada group for current or past employees of Air Canada. Here they post videos and photos of airplanes, photographs with fellow coworkers, as well as share content that was originally posted by Air Canada. This group is also current, and is posting content regularly.

The last fan page we looked at was on Twitter, the Twitter handle for this account is @NewsAirCanada. This is an unofficial Twitter page that posts related news and media regarding the company regularly. Not only are they on Twitter but they also have a blog and a podcast! Their content is made up of mostly news referring to Air Canada, for example one of their posts is about how Air Canada Rouge started flights from Vacouver to Cancun. They don’t retweet any information from the actual Airlines account and don’t post any images.

As you can see fan page types can vary on topics that they wish to touch on and on what social media they decide to launch it on.
