Ryanair beware. When press trips become blogging fuel.
March 5, 2007
Want to know what a typical Ryanair press itinerary looks like? Juzzy - a journalist who writes the entertaining JD’s World blog - has reproduced a recent invitation to Sardinia in full.
Alghero is one of those places that the Italians have been happy to keep to themselves. Tucked away on the north-western coast, this fishing port remains unspoilt and mostly devoid of the package holiday crowds. It’s a busy, thriving town, with fetes, carnivals and events throughout the year, and the locals actually seem pleased to see you.
Yes, but will they be as thrilled to encounter a press trip too?
Hopefully, when JD returns later tonight, we’ll get the scoop on how everybody behaved.
In the meantime here is an idea of the calibre of humanity accompanying him.
I nearly said you have to feel sorry for the PR minders, but that’s just silly. They’ll have some good new tales to tell their grandchildren some day.
