When you’re planning a timeshare vacation, getting all the travel info you can is of prime importance these days.<\/p>\n

We’ve been taking a look around the web and on Twitter to see where we can get the best travel news and tips. The following 8 Twitter accounts are those we’ve found so far and really, really loved.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re in no particular order apart from alphabetical, simply because they\u2019re all great for different reasons.  <\/p>\n

1. Guardian Travel <\/b>@GuardianTravel This is the Guardian newspaper\u2019s word on travel \u2013 they offer up what they consider to be the latest travel news, insider guides, emerging destinations, and travel trends \u2013 so this feed is well curated and always interesting.<\/p>\n

2. Heather Poole<\/b> @Heather_Poole Heather doubles as a flight attendant for a \u2018major carrier \u2018 and the author of New York Times bestseller, Cruising Attitude<\/i>. Oh, and she blogs. Heather\u2019s feed is full of anecdotes from said blog as well as tips on how not to irritate your flight attendant.<\/p>\n

3. Jeannie Mark<\/b> @nomadicchick Jeanie managed to break free of being a \u2018corporate cog in the wheel\u2019 in 2010 and has since been traveling and blogging about her adventures. Sharing tips, photos and videos, Jeannie examines issues such as whether it\u2019s safe for women travelers to couch surf alone.<\/p>\n

4. Keith Jenkins<\/b> @velvetescape Keith blogs about luxury travel, mixing his tweets up and providing his followers with RTs of tweets by other travel bloggers news sources, and travel operators. He\u2019s great for tweeting unusual tips and lovely pictures from his travels.<\/p>\n

5. Kristin Luna<\/b> @LunaticAtLarge Kristin shares her writing, photography and trip planning with readers over on her blog, Camels and Chocolate. She\u2019s also been pretty prolific elsewhere and has done pieces for other sites and, no less, National Geographic.<\/p>\n

6. Londonist <\/b>@Londonist London, London, London. We\u2019re big fans of the big city, and this one gives us lots of London-centric tweets about events, news and recommendations. London, baby!<\/p>\n

7. Lonely Planet<\/b> \u200f@lonelyplanet Just like its published guides, LP is a great and very genuine resource, tweeting and retweeting the best news and travel tips form around the globe. Tag your posts with #lp and, if you\u2019re following @lonelyplanet too, they\u2019ll retweet you if they like what you\u2019re saying.<\/p>\n

8. Neil Barnes<\/b> @packsandbunks Neil is a self-confessed pizza lover. He tweets about his travels (often with pictures) and actively engages in the travel blogging community. We like his style.<\/p>\n
