Travel is Much More Than a Vacation for 50-plus Crowd
New boomer Web site finds top travel dreams of 50 plus Americans include traveling to Hawaii, Europe, Australia and Italy
The days of settling for a quick trip to Florida are over or so it seems for the 50 plus crowd. What has always been an important part of Americans leisure activity is now becoming a full blown passion for baby boomers. In fact, 75 percent of boomers today consider themselves travelers and 30 percent of mature travelers travel for adventure.
Recently, Eons.com, a new Web site for people 50 and over who want to live life to the fullest, challenged Americans to submit the goals and dreams they would like to accomplish on their way to living to age 100.
This growing collection of more than 70,000 LifeDreams personalized collections of top things to do before you turn 100 reveals that nearly half of the top 100 goals adults 50 plus want to accomplish center around travel. What may come as even more of a surprise is the type of travel people are planning: Eons visitors are not naming passive vacations; rather they seek to experience and learn about the world and themselves through meaningful journeys and adventures.
If you are over 50 today, you will, on average, live 20 years longer than your grandparents did, explains Jeff Taylor, founder and CEO of Eons. This provides more opportunities than ever before to get the most out of life. Eons members have told us that they are planning to use this time to travel to new places, to continue to learn, to deepen their relationships and to just have fun. Travel is never more important than when you are over 50 now is the time to live out your dreams.
Eons lists a range of travel experiences, from seeing the Grand Canyon to going on safari in Africa, as among the 100 most popular LifeDreams of its visitors. The top five travel dreams include traveling to Hawaii, Europe, Australia and Italy, as well as taking a cruise.
Up until now, the typical first step in planning a trip was to choose a destination Italy or Hawaii for example. However, we are finding that many boomers are now starting their planning based on their interests and goals, like a walking vacation or a family reunion, explains Ronnie Mae Weiss, an Eons travel expert. From there, the research, planning and fun begin.
For active vacations, boomers are more likely than a younger audience to train with friends or with a personal trainer prior to the trip. Diving into the cultural nuances of a region, taking a conversational language course or inviting friends over to test regional recipes are other ways to make the most of preparing for trips. This new generation is embracing the Internet as a resource and is likely to have a community of past travelers and friends to share and suggest hidden treasures to enrich their travels,adds Weiss.
The travel industry is turning its attention to the financial prowess of this new 50 plus generation. Approximately 8,000 Americans turn 50 every day, and boomers control $2 trillion in disposable income annually. New offerings are being created to meet the unique needs of this age group, from plan it yourself travel to extensive package vacations that can be tailored for couples, adventurous individuals or families seeking intergenerational vacations that bring children, parents and grandparents together.
Unique travel companies like Geographic Expeditions, ElderHostel and Earthwatch, along with others, are offering experiential trips that enable people 50 and over to participate in environmental, cultural, volunteer and other interest driven activities as part of their trips. Industry leaders such as Hyatt Hotels are creating special offers and programs, including destinations and packages that are particularly appealing to this age group.
Travel for people 50 and over is rapidly changing, says Tom OToole, senior vice president, strategy and systems, Global Hyatt Corp. We find it very interesting that travel is among the most aspirational concepts for this group. As such, incredible opportunities are being opened up for the travel industry, including Hyatt, serving these peoples dreams of traveling around the world.

A fantastic piece of research.” --Betsy Wade, New York Times “The bargain hunter’s bible.” --AARP The Magazine “Great trips for the over-50-but-not-over-the-hill-crowd.” --Chicago Tribune One American turns 50 every 7.6 seconds, and here's a book that caters to the pocketbooks of this ever-increasing traveling population. "Ten years ago when I wrote the first edition of Unbelievably Good Deals, active vacation and adventure trips were seldom offered to mature travelers," says author Joan Heilman. "Today, however, these readers, especially baby boomers who've just turned 50, are looking for action, and the book reflects that trend." This complete compendium for senior discounts includes special offers for adventure travel; lifetime admission tickets to national parks; airfare specials; up to 50 percent off on hotels and restaurants; discounts for golf, tennis, and ski vacations; and trips, clubs and matchmaking services for singles. The book also offers advice on how to beat the cost of car rentals; save money on train, bus, and boat fares; find thrifty alternative lodgings all over the world; uncover the best shopping values; discover volunteering opportunities; and get the lowdown on going back to school. The last chapter provides an overview of organizations for people over 50 and what they can offer, or what you can offer them. As the author points out, "When you consider that there are more people in this country over the age of 55 than there are children in elementary and high schools, you can see why we have powerful potential to influence what goes on around here." --Kathryn True Features

![]() The Naked Truth About Hedonism II Sale Price: $96.87 See Reviews For This Product DescriptionThis naughty but nice guide to Jamaica's all-inclusive, very adult resort tells what to except at Hedonism II and how to make the most of it. All the naked and silly stories are true, and you'll laugh till you wet your undies. (If you didn't cleverly forget them again.) Learn about the antics that keep guests returning to Hedonism II, an all-inclusive Jamaican resort, giving it the highest repeat-guest counts of any Caribbean hotel. The Naked Truth About Hedonism II tells you what to expect at this unique resort and how to make the most of a vacation there. You'll learn the myths, the truths, and the tips that will make your vacation to Hedonism II the best trip you'll ever take-again and again. Warning: Don't sip a soda pop while reading this book. The bubbles will burn your nostrils as the drink shoots out your nose. The Myths: Only young singles go to Hedonism II. People walk around naked everywhere. Open sex is rampant. Someone will try to steal your wife. Every myth has its truths...but Hedonism II is 50% couples-and most guests are over 30, full nudity is only allowed on one beach, the hotel does not permit public sex, and your wife-well, that's her choice. But at Hedonism II you will see what you've never seen before...And you might do it too! Guests of Hedonism II experiment with whatever they consider exotic: be it swinging on the trapeze, floating naked on a raft, or dancing on the stage in a bed sheet in front of 500 people. The hotel is an adult kid camp where friends meet time after time. The Naked Truth About Hedonism II revealqs the real rules of the hotel-and there are only three of them. It tells how to handle the public erection (don't handle it!) and where to find beer at 7 a.m. before the bars open. You'll laugh at the many "Tales from the Naked City"-the pages are chock-full of stories to keep you grinning about the man with the sheep, the games on the nude beach (well beyond ring toss), and the young men on their quest for an exchange of bodily fluids. The 189-page softcover book is 51/2 by 81/2 inches with 26 black-and-white photos. |
