For more than 28 years, eTurboNews (eTN) has been one of the world’s leading independent travel and tourism news publications, serving millions of readers and industry professionals worldwide.
The eTurboNews Trust Network extends that reach by providing organizations with a professional platform to publish announcements through our trusted publishing partners, while maintaining a strict separation between paid communications and independent journalism.
Our commitment is simple:
- Organizations deserve a respected platform to share their news.
- Readers deserve independent journalism they can trust.
- Editorial coverage on eTurboNews is based solely on journalistic merit and cannot be purchased.
This clear separation has made eTurboNews a trusted source for travel professionals, destinations, airlines, hotels, tourism organizations, government agencies, and media around the world

Pitch Newsworthy Press Releases
Most press releases are created to promote an organization, destination, person, product, or service; increase visibility; attract media attention; or receive priority editorial consideration.
To ensure complete transparency, we’ve outlined our publishing and editorial review process below. At the bottom of this page, you’ll also find a quick submission form to submit your announcement.

If accepted for publication, a $49.00 newsroom fee applies. Every published article includes professional formatting, permanent archiving, an SEO-friendly presentation, and global online accessibility. Selected stories may also be shared through our social media groups.
All editorial decisions are made solely on journalistic merit.

Editorial Review for Potential eTurboNews Coverage of Trusted Partner Articles
Every announcement published by one of our trusted network partners is independently reviewed by the eTurboNews newsroom alongside news received from governments, airlines, hotels, tourism organizations, and official media sources worldwide.
At the sole discretion of our editors, a published announcement may be referenced, cited, or developed into an independent news story if it is considered relevant and newsworthy. This editorial review is based solely on journalistic merit and is not influenced by sponsorship or advertising.

Our Commitment
The eTurboNews Trust Network is built on one simple principle:
Organizations can purchase professional visibility through our trusted publishing network—but editorial coverage on eTurboNews cannot be purchased.
The only exception is a Sponsored Editorial produced by the eTurboNews newsroom. Such content is accepted only when it is relevant and newsworthy, is independently researched, written, and edited by our journalists, and is always clearly identified as sponsored. Sponsored Editorials are held to the same standards of accuracy, quality, and editorial integrity as our independent reporting.
This clear separation protects the credibility of eTurboNews while providing organizations with a respected platform to communicate with the global travel industry.
- Readers deserve independent journalism they can trust.
- Organizations deserve a professional platform to share their news.
The eTurboNews Trust Network delivers both.
