How to Get Featured in Condé Nast Traveler
Condé Nast Traveler draws about 4.1 million monthly visits, holds a domain rating of 88, and publishes in two to three weeks.
The largest luxury audience on our list
Condé Nast Traveler is the biggest title in our luxury category at about 4.1 million monthly visits, with a domain rating of 88. Only Architectural Digest is comparable, and after those two the category drops to 416,000, as we set out in luxury publications ranked by reach.
It covers hotels, destinations, airlines and the business of luxury travel, with awards and lists that carry real commercial weight in the industry.
The trade-off is time: two to three weeks, and the editorial standard is high.
The routes in
Hotels and resorts, its core subject.
Destinations, where there is a reason to go now.
Travel industry news and analysis.
Expert commentary from operators and advisers.
A placed feature, written and approved by you before it runs. That is what we handle, and it is a different product from an editor there choosing to write about you.
How long it takes
Two to three weeks. Slower than the market average of roughly two weeks, so start early and do not hang a fixed launch date on it.
Build your own review time into that rather than onto the end of it.
Links and indexing
Nofollow. No ranking authority passes, which is normal at a domain rating of 88. Buy it for the audience and the name, not for your rankings.
It indexes and AI engines read it, so the piece works as a citation when someone asks an assistant about you, not only as a link.
What gets turned down
Properties below the title's positioning.
Destination copy with nothing specific in it.
Claims about awards, ratings or exclusivity that cannot be checked.
Who it suits
Luxury hotels and resorts. Destination marketing organisations. Airlines and premium transport. High-end tour operators and travel advisers. Anyone whose customer plans expensive trips months ahead.
The short version
4.1 million monthly visits, domain rating 88, nofollow, two to three weeks. The largest luxury readership we can reach, and the category's reference title for travel.

Frequently asked questions
01How do you get featured in Condé Nast Traveler?
Three routes: pitch an editor directly, be quoted as an expert in a piece they are already writing, or use a placement service. We write the article, you approve every word, and we secure the placement. Condé Nast Traveler draws about 4.1 million monthly visits and publishes in two to three weeks.
02How long does it take to get published in Condé Nast Traveler?
About two to three weeks from approval to publication, against a market average of roughly two weeks. Your own review sits inside that window rather than after it.
03Does Condé Nast Traveler give a do-follow link?
Condé Nast Traveler marks its outbound links nofollow, so no ranking authority passes. It is bought for the audience and the name. It is still indexed and still read by AI engines, which cite by content rather than by link attribute.
04Is Condé Nast Traveler worth the wait?
For a luxury travel business, usually yes. It is the largest title in our luxury category at 4.1 million monthly visits, and the third largest in that category has 416,000, so there is no comparable alternative. The two to three week turnaround and the editorial standard are the cost of that position.
