Merger time in the US?

11 January 2007 - 05:55 PM

It seems to be airline merger time in the US now.....3 companies already did a merger-related move this week.....and counting.

What do you think this year will bring in airline mergers?

How to make a god press release

19 December 2006 - 09:17 AM

Edit: I meant good of course, not god.

A short article on how to make a good press release. Maybe you could use some help with that :)

To begin:

- Never use ''I'', ''we'' or ''you'' in a press release(Any article in general. It's a golden rule in journalism.) Use the name of your company instead. There are exceptions, but they are not very important.
- Begin your press release with something like this:

ABC Airlines Opens Routes From DEF to XYZ
HQ CITY, HQ STATE(if applicable), HQ COUNTRY(date within ())--- Today, ABC announced...

- Don't use capitals in the title for words like ''the'', ''and'', ''to'', etc.
- Never use ( ), [ ] or { }, except for the date.
- Normal paragraphing rules apply.
That's it for short. If you'd like any more info how to write a press release, feel free to contact me.

TUI Announces Action Plan

Before I continue, I'll tell who I am. :)
Some of you already know me from the time I played Airline Empires as Sierra Airways(SA).
I'm a professional journalist living in Doetinchem(near Arnhem) in The Netherlands, and I'll write articles and probably update some stats here at AE.

This is my first news article:
