• American Demographicsdescribesthein-flightaudience:“Whetherthey’reonabusinesstriporvacation,these travelers are often in a spending mode, and captive to marketing messages.”

• Advertising Age states: “The reality for advertisers is that they get in front of people with real disposable incomes, much more so than other magazines.”

• Washingtonpost.com: “When you look at the affluent statistics of in-flights, what lies behind that is a portrait of a reader who is extremely culturally aware, who participates in outdoor sports and museums, and is a very socially sophisticated kind of person.“
