@ACAltitude or @ACAttitude

I knew that would happen. The person was using trademarked material, etc. Only a matter of time before the lawyers got to him through Twitter Inc.

SERIOUSLY??!! AC can't take a little good natured hammering?

I suppose it might have been a bit confusing to some to see the AC logo when ACAttitude responded and thought for a second it was actually ACAltitude. However, anyone that read the replies should have known pretty quick that they were tongue in cheek and rechecked the account name.

Killjoys... boo AC, booooooo

If AC can't take a joke, they shouldn't be one

Buddy should just recreate it with a doctored logo. I think AC would have a tough time convincing a court that the words ac attitude infringed on AC altitude. I think this is a free speech issue and goes to show how spineless twitter really is. Especially in the face of advertiser pressure.

There's still @AirCanadaSucks which reports negative news about AC and @AirCanadaPR which hasn't tweeted since last May.

I wonder if @ACAttitude would have been suspended if, all else being equal, the logo hadn't been an AC logo.

@ACAttitude is back on Twitter!

Hilarious, but maybe not as witty as the previous person who hijacked AC's Twitter handle. Still love whoever is behind it. She/he responded to one of my posts last night where I was b*tching to @ACAltitude about the new co-pays. I wonder how long before this account gets shut down again?

Can someone post some of the responses, or a link to them for those that aren't on Twitter?

Looks like the account's been suspended.

You don't need to have a Twitter account to follow anyone on there, just go to twitter.com/username. So in this case, the link is:
