AARP is building a new travel destination with content tailored for the 50+ audience.
They're looking for freelance writers with destination and subject-matter experience in the following areas:
Destination experts: They have a list of service-oriented articles to assign — think "how to visit on a budget," "how to get around," "where to stay." For now, they're focused primarily on North America, Western Europe, and the world's most popular cities among the 50+ American traveler set — so Chicago over Cairns, London over Lagos.
Cruise reviewers: Taken a popular sailing in the last two years and have your own images? They're interested in Europe, the Caribbean, and Alaska.
Unique travel stories for the 50+ traveler: Aspirational, inspirational, "I had no idea I could do that" stories. Also especially interested in pieces on accessible travel, solo travel, and multi-generational trips with an emphasis on value.
This is a future launch, so they're commissioning evergreen content that will be relevant from late 2025 into 2027.

We don't promote organizations or brands that appear on the Boycott, Divest, Sanction list and, as such, are complicit in the genocide, apartheid, and illegal occupation of Palestine. This opportunity passes the Boycat App screening.
