Good News!
I submitted my article by email and 18 minutes later,
the editor wrote me back asking to buy it.
She loved it!
Thanks so much for your guidance.”
-- Barbara Ash, In-Flight Workshop attendee
Dear Travel Writer,
I want to let you in on a little secret. A "back door" into airline in-flight magazines.
Writing for them is fun. It's glamorous. It's lucrative.
And it can provide you with the credibility and pro-level track record you need to land more and better by-lines… and start cashing in on amazing travel perks, too.
Once you know the secret formula to getting in, it's remarkably easy to get published in one… even if you've never had a travel article published anywhere before…
In fact, 18 minutes is all it took Barbara Ash to get her first article accepted in an in-flight magazine.
Barbara came to our Breaking into In-Flight Magazines Workshop in Houston last December. She used the secret formula she learned there to come up with a bound-to-sell article idea. She sent it to an in-flight editor. And 18 minutes later, she had a by-line in the bag. That's right -- 18 minutes. Basically, the editor hit reply and bought it on the spot.
And Diane Simpson, another attendee at our workshop, had a similar experience. She told us:
“My article hasn’t even been printed yet and I’ve already received a check. It was just as easy as you said it was. Thanks!”
This secret formula Barbara and Diane put to work for them is powerful. No question.
But it's simple and easy, too. And you really don't need any experience to make it work for you. Barbara and Diane didn't have any.
But I'll get to that deal in a minute.
First, I want to tell you why freelance travel writer and author of The Ultimate Travel Writer’s Program, Jennifer Stevens, calls the airline in-flight magazine industry…
The “Holy Grail” of Travel Writing
Most writers think airline in-flight magazines are pretty impossible to break into.
And to be honest, that's true if all you're thinking about are the magazines you’ll find in the seat pockets on “The Big Six” airlines (United, Continental, Northwest, Delta, American, and US Airways).
At those magazines, no doubt about it, you’re competing with some of the best travel writers and photographers in the industry.
That's because, for starters, every well-established writer knows that in-flight magazines are among the highest-paying publications out there. And who wouldn't want to earn hundreds of dollars for a handful of paragraphs?
Plus, on top of that there's the "glamour factor." I mean, when somebody asks you what you do and you say, "I write articles for magazines, like airline magazines… " it's like instant celebrity status.
We’re talking four-color, glossy spreads here -- the kind you want to frame and proudly display on your wall.
But the good news is -- if you know where to look, you’ll find a back door with far less competition than you could ever have imagined.
There are Some 300 Airlines Worldwide…
And Virtually All of Them Have Their Own Custom-Published Magazine
Have you ever heard of aboutTime magazine? It’s an in-flight magazine for 1time Airlines.
Heck, have you even heard of 1time Airlines?
Truth is, there are hundreds of magazines like aboutTime that you've never heard of. And, as a rule, they pay just about as well as the big guys.
Plus, more often than not, the editors of these magazines are starved for stories -- on almost any conceivable topic, set in any country on the planet.
Even if a magazine isn’t written entirely in English, there’s invariably some English content. Features and articles have to be wide-ranging enough that every passenger can find something of interest to them.
Not to mention, airlines are filling more seats than ever before. With the U.S. dollar at an all-time low, more and more international travelers are making their way to the U.S. filling more international seats than ever before.
And with the recent announcement of airline mergers like that between Delta and Northwest, bigger planes are coming on to the scene.
With advertising revenues on the increase, these magazines are getting thicker. In a recent review, the Washington Post noted that United Airlines’ Hemispheres had expanded in four years from 114 to 163 pages.
And all of this means more opportunity for you. If you’ve never written for an in-flight magazine -- even if you've never had an article published anywhere -- with this secret formula you can easily and quickly break in.
Talk About Giving Your Travel Writing Career a Shot in the Arm
As soon as you can put an in-flight magazine on your list of places you've been published, you're immediately playing in the big leagues.
It's like getting an infusion of credibility. Editors see that and they think, "OK, this person's a pro." And that's what hotels and resorts think, too. Who wouldn't want their establishment featured in an in-flight magazine? Tell somebody that's who you're writing for, and get ready for the VIP treatment…
And let’s not forget about the money…
The going rate at many titles is as much as $1 per word but even the ones that pay less than this are usually more open-handed than newspapers or other magazines.
Finally, there’s the prestige.
On a major international airline, a million or more passengers all over the world may read the story you’ve written. Among them will be movers and shakers in industry, the arts, sports, and politics.
While it’s always a thrill to see your work in print, in-flights are in a class of their own for boosting a writer’s self-esteem.
More practically, those in-flight clips will be the most prestigious in your portfolio.
“In-flight magazines are attractive to advertisers… for the type of reader they capture -- a wealthy one who is stranded for hours at a time with the publication. And not only wealthy, but well-educated and technologically advanced.
"They get a lot of business travelers who are flying all the time. The reality for advertisers is that they get to get in front of people with real disposable incomes, much more so than other magazines." -- Nat Ives, Advertising Age magazine reporter
Sneak in Through the “Back Door” of In-Flight Magazines
One of the keys to unlocking the “back door” into in-flights, is knowing where to send your stories.
A few of the bigger publications publish their writer’s guidelines… but most don’t.
And unlike typical travel magazines, airline in-flights are often put out by ad agencies rather than publishing houses.
You might not think that would make a difference, but it does.
It means that each magazine is designed as a marketing tool for its airline -- and that affects how you pitch your stories and what you include in them.
Plus, because they’re not published in the "usual" way, they can be incredibly hard to track down.
Only a handful of in-flights appear in Writer's Market, for instance. And if you look online, you can toggle together a short list of about 12 or so (six of which will be the “big six” airlines I told you about earlier). But most in-flight magazines don't have their back issues archived online and there's no easy way to get their writer's guidelines, either.
And let's face it, no matter how well they pay, if it takes you two months to hunt down the editor and the Guidelines, you’re already starting at a loss.
But it doesn't have to be that way!
We'll hand you the secret formula you need to land a by-line in an in-flight magazine quickly, easily (and without even getting on a plane!)

We Don't Just "Tell" You the Secret Formula… We Take You by the Hand and Walk You Through it Every Enjoyable Step of the Way
This package isn't like anything else out there. Not only does it reveal a secret formula nobody else will tell you… but it does it in such a way that you'll feel like you've had a private guide.
You see, late last year we held a conference in Houston, TX to teach a select group of our readers how to use our secret formula to break into airline in-flight magazines. The conference sold out in four days. And we had to turn people away. No wonder…
Our very own Jennifer Stevens, author of The Ultimate Travel Writer’s Program, was there to share her secrets for getting published in this industry…
And then we invited the in-flight magazine editor that Jen's been writing for lately to join us, too. Ann Silva is her name -- the editor for ExpressLane magazine (that’s the in-flight magazine published for Express Jet airlines). She agreed…
And together, behind closed doors in Houston, they divulged everything it takes to break into this glamorous, fun, and lucrative market… and we recorded the whole thing.
What they revealed was astounding -- a formula so powerful that once you know how to apply it, you can use it to get published in airline in-flight magazines quickly, easily… and again and again.
You may not have been in the room. But with this special Breaking into Airine In-Flight Magazines Package, you'll feel like you were. You'll learn…

What’s more, Jen -- long an editor herself and a very successful freelance writer -- revealed a few more secrets, too, that apply not just to in-flight magazines… but will come in handy no matter who you want to write for. You'll find out…
- How to position yourself in your own hometown so you're perceived as a "resident expert." (Well, more than that: how to actually become that expert -- so that when editors are looking for writers, you're the one they find.)
- How to make writing easy. Jen's technique is simple, really. You'll learn how to get information to come right to you -- you'll never be at a loss for a story idea or the meaty content that will make writing a breeze.

"Even If You Have No Story Ideas Right
Now… I Promise, 30 Days From Now You Will…"
And You Don’t Even Have to Leave Your Hometown to Get Started
Remember Barbara Ash and Diane Simpson? They're the two workshop attendees I mentioned earlier.
Well neither of them had ever sold a travel article before they came to Houston. And they didn't even have to leave their hometowns to take away $300 for each of their small, one-page articles!
They both wrote and sold them from the comfort of their own homes. No travel was necessary.
And the same is true for Jen Stevens. The last two stories she sold to an airline in-flight magazine were written about her hometown in Colorado. (Then… the editor liked her stories so much, she sent her to Omaha to do a cover story there!)
Truth is, writing for airline in-flight magazines could fund a lifetime of endless travel. But you don’t have to leave your hometown to get started. (If you don’t want to, that is.)
And when you approach the in-flights the right way -- with the secret formula we'll show you -- you could get published in no time.
That’s what the Breaking into Airline In-Flight Magazines: Secrets, Tips, and Tactics to Quickly and Easily Crack one of the Industry’s Most Lucrative (and Glamorous) Markets package is all about.
One Afternoon + Five Paragraphs = $500
Dear Travel Writer,
Imagine making $950 for a five-paragraph article and a handful of photos of a favorite place in your own hometown… I did…
And you could easily do the same…
Just picture it: a full-color, glossy spread so nice looking, you could frame it on a wall.
I'll show you exactly how it's done… a secret formula for breaking into the "Holy Grail" of travel magazines… easily, quickly, and while you're having fun!
In-flight editors are always looking for unique articles about the places they fly, so if you live in a city or town with an airport -- even if it’s small town -- then you could be sitting on a goldmine of story possibilities.
The trick lies in knowing the right way to define them and then sell them to an editor. It's not complicated. But the key just might surprise you. In the Breaking into Airline In-Flight Magazines: Secrets, Tips, and Tactics to Quickly and Easily Crack one of the Industry’s Most Lucrative (and Glamorous) Markets package, we'll show you exactly how it's done.
The first piece I sold to an airline in-flight magazine was a short article -- a single typed page -- for $500. And then the editor paid me an additional $450 for the photos. Not bad, considering I wrote it in an afternoon about a tourist attraction 15 minutes from my house.
And it’s something you can easily do, too. It's simply a matter of applying the secret formula revealed in this package. You see, it turns out there's a "back door" into airline in-flights. And, with this formula to guide you, you can waltz right through it and get pro-level status in no time at all.
