How to Pitch: Budget Travel (plus Paste!)

budgetralv.jpg"A recently redesigned Budget Travel is working harder than ever to bring its tagline-'Vacations for Real People'-to life for readers," writes Nilsa Alston. "Budget Travel caters to anyone who loves travel but doesn't want to get ripped off," says editor Erik Torkells. About 60 percent of the magazine is dedicated to domestic travel because, Torkells explains, "the vast majority of travelers travel within the U.S.'". Friendly to freelancers are the sections "Trip Coach" and "True Stories". By the way, Budget Travel is not Budget Living.

Pitch via email and if you don't hear back in three weeks, it's a 'no.'

Meanwhile, the Paste How to Pitch has been updated, so check it out: "This music, movies and everything else magazine welcomes freelancers to nearly all sections."
