Yacht Vacations & Charters

FROM THE PUBLISHER
Fly to Your Yacht Vacation
on a Private Jet!

Written By Fuat Kircaali

Welcome to the second issue of YV&C. With this issue, we are excited to introduce our Private Jet Charters & Travel supplement (www.JetChartersMagazine.com), which we hope you will find both interesting and informative. When we published our “Air Charter” column in our premier issue, we could not predict how popular the private air travel topic would be. We received feedback from many of our readers and requests for a wider coverage of the new “jet card” phenomenon. Having worked closely with the leaders of this emerging industry, we are now pleased to present you with our first supplement, a detailed look at private air travel, including some of the programs yacht and jet charter firms have recently started to offer.

The responses we received from you on our premier issue were very encouraging as well. Since YV&C’s debut three months ago, we already see that the magazine is filling a long-standing void. The warm welcome you gave us right from the start is reflected in our numbers. From our first issue to this second one, our advertising revenue and support is up by 53%. Our newsstand distribution has increased by 39% – to more than 30,000 copies worldwide – impressive numbers! You will now be able to find YV&C at all Barnes & Noble check-out counters and in the travel section of their newsstands; at airports in Florida as well as those in New York; and in Continental’s Presidents Club lounges and Delta Crown Rooms all around the world.

In this issue you will find exciting new stories exploring Alaska, Florida, Italy, the Bahamas, Mexico, Greece, and the Middle East. In addition, there’s an entire section dedicated to the South of France, in which we were able to catch some of this year’s early summer action in Cannes and Monaco.
You may think of our “Cinque Terre” story that you will see both in English and Italian, as the early stages of our upcoming Italian language version of the magazine.

I’m also happy to announce that International Yacht Vacations & Charters magazine is now available online in its “digital edition” format so that you can read and access all stories published in our print edition and more, at www.YachtChartersMagazine.com. With your subscription to the magazine, you will also receive the digital edition of every issue via e-mail. As you search and read an article online, you can also conveniently print it exactly how you see it in the magazine and take it with you.

Last but not least, you will find a list of recommended charter brokers (see facing page) and their contact information. We provide this information as a service to our readers. This list is also available online at the end of every article of a particular issue, with convenient links to your favorite broker’s Web site. The are among YV&C’s advertising partners, who were carefully evaluated before we accepted their advertising messages. All brokers listed here have impressive credentials and they are well-qualified to make your next charter vacation an unforgettable experience. We look forward to hearing from you as you share your experiences with us and our readers.
