You don’t have to look far this summer to find stories about travel nightmares in airports all over the world.
That’s why the Aug. 31 deadline for the 6th Annual Road Warriors contest sponsored by AmericanWay, the inflight magazine of American Airlines, is perfect timing.
The magazine is searching for the top Road Warriors. The winner will participate in a photo shoot, be featured in the special American Way Road Warrior issue, and win some other cool prizes. Speakers, consultants and anyone who travels—and can put up with the related hassles with grace and ease—should apply.
If you enter and don’t win, you still have lots of other opportunities to get into that inflight magazine and many others. Simply pitch a story idea or column that’s perfect for a mostly upscale, well-educated audience, or a “surprise destination” story. Or create a fun quiz. See “Special Report #29: Fly High with Publicity in the Inflight Magazines.”
A tip of the hat to Penny Sansevieri’s “The Book Marketing Expert (mini) Newsletter” for mentioning this.
This is a perfect fit for someone I know who has a newsletter titled Road Warrior–how cool is THAT potential tie-in?!? From the day spent at your workshop, I now know a whole raft of reasons why winning could be very valuable (beyond the great prizes).
