Travel 50 & Beyond

I received this magazine as a gift... and I will not renew. Articles are very short and refer you to websites, telephone numbers, etc. for more information. Why so little information in the magazine itself?

Additionally, there is a load of advertising: take that out of the equation and the magazine would only be a few pages long.

For my money, there is much more available elsewhere, including a "google" search. Waste of paper, IMHO.

"Travel 50 & Beyond" was on almost every page an ad for "Vacations To Go" There were very few articles on travel destinations and most of those were in a section called "sponsored section" sponsored by who? well Vacations To Go of course. Sometimes the articles were even written by the editor and editorial asst. of the publication. Any articles that were printed were always glowing reports,nothing unbiased. So I googled the publisher -vacationpublicationsand here's another big surprise vacationspublications came up with this:

"Vacations To Go is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vacation Publications, Inc., which publishes magazines, books and special reports for the travel and mature ..."

I feel like I really got taken. This was like one big pamphlet for thier travel company. I probably could have gotten all of it for free from their agency. Not only that but aside from pictures of some really happy looking older folks, I didn't particularly feel that this "magazine" I hate to even call it that was geared toward people age 50 plus.

There were many cruises(all of course should be booked through vacations to go), and some foreign travel that would probably blow a couple months of our fixed income. I would have liked to see some road trips or even train tours through the good ole U.S.A. There were some suggestions for a couple of vacations in some states, with maybe a map of the entire state, but not much actually showing any kind of route to take.There was an article a few months ago for a trip through route 66, but once again this was written by an editorial asst of Travel 50.

I ordered this through a subscription from a school fundraiser have recieved about 3 alreadyand the only thing good I have to say is that the publication arrives on schedule. Well, why wouldn't it?....Vacations To Go will benefit highly from any reservations made through this,their own magazine...and subscribers are just paying for all the adsabout 100 pages worth. Fahgetaboutit.

thanks....Laurie

I could not distinguish the articles from the ads. Nothing in this magazine is worth reading. It is one big brochure for the tour and cruise company, Vacations To Go. I bought this for my granddaughter's magazine drive; so I probably can't get my money back; it is really a terrible excuse for a magazine!

I have never received a copy of this magazine that I ordered in August of last year! They didn't hesitate to take my money though! I have no idea if the magazine has any redeemable articles in it at all.

I am an older single woman. I love to travel by myself or with friends. Recently, I subscribed to Travel 50 & Beyond.

I counted photographs of thirty couples in a recent issue and NONE of single travellers enjoying themselves. According to the American Association of Single People, almost 50% of the adult population of the US is unpartnered. The travel industry and its publications need to catch up with the demographics! I will not continue to subscribe to this or any other magazine that does not give equal representation to the travel interests of the single population. Wake up to reality!
