US Airways Magazine ~ Myrtle Beach featured in December
US Airways Magazine has chosen the Myrtle Beach area as the December issue’s city profile, a 36+ page editorial feature which combines traditional travel related information with a comprehensive look at the economic drivers and industry sectors that shape the business landscapes and lifestyles along the Grand Strand.
“A unique editorial feature of this magnitude will emphasize what we as residents already know, that the Myrtle Beach area has remarkable diversity, innate charm and incredible potential for the increase of business and tourism,” said Brad Dean, president and CEO of the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce. “We’re looking forward to having US Airways Magazine showcase the people and places that make each community along the Grand Strand so appealing and inviting.”
“Profile: Myrtle Beach and the Grand Strand” will examine in depth the people, places, industry and history of the Myrtle Beach area and will include topics spotlighting economic development and emerging industries, real estate, educational and healthcare resources, tourism and convention opportunities, dining, accommodations, recreation, and quality of life advantages. The “Profile: Myrtle Beach and the Grand Strand” editors, writers and photographers will be working closely with the local community and area leaders to generate story ideas and photographs. Marketing opportunities also will be available in the “Profile” for those businesses and organizations located in the Myrtle Beach and Grand Strand area.
US Airways Magazine is seen monthly by more than 5 million of the world’s elite business and leisure travelers, and reaches 50 states and 35 foreign countries. It is known for its editorial excellence and upscale readership. The Myrtle Beach feature will position the area on a national and global scale as one of the best places to work, live, and vacation.
“The Myrtle Beach area was chosen because of its unique communities and incredible appeal to visitors,” said Steve Mitchem, director of City Profiles. “From the area’s fishing villages and marsh inlets to the 60 miles of beach and exciting attractions, the Myrtle Beach area has many great stories to tell.”
US Airways Magazine plans to kick off its efforts regarding the Myrtle Beach area with a press reception in early September and with writing and photography occurring during September and October.
