La
Jolla, CA � October 2001 � Retired.com Inc. announces a new vacation, cruise
and travel division just ten months after its launch of the portal site
www.retired.com.
The company has quickly grown to over 500,000 members (around 20,000 new
members weekly) and found �travel� to be one of the most highly requested
categories on the site. In addition to their own findings, a recent AOL
survey reports 77% of older Americans used the Web to research travel and
vacation options online (Mediamark Research, May 2001). In an answer to
meet this demand from their members and growing market, Retired.com Inc.
launched a private vacation resort and cruise club.
Through an exclusive partnership with a direct distributor of privately owned condos and vacation resort units, Retired.com created their new program, Good Life Getaways Private Resort and Cruise Club. The membership-based program recently launched at www.goodlifegetaways.com and is available to everyone age 18 and over. Here, members can access 1000's of currently available discounted vacations and cruises created by the excess inventory from mismatched vacation owner trades. The Good Life Getaways Private Resort and Cruise Club's inventory pools from over 340,000 resort owners at approximately 500 four and five star luxury resorts around the world. A one time set up fee of $29.95 and only $7 a month allows members unlimited access to the exclusive discounted inventory not available through travel agents or other public advertising. The below industry prices offered on the site are possible due to the direct distribution channel of the vacations with the private owner resort properties as well as the ability to fulfill eleventh hour vacancies. In addition to having access to the vacation inventory, members also receive other benefits such as the Getaways quarterly magazine, concierge services, and additional club discounts on cruises, airlines, hotels, car rental, and tours. The unique Good Life Getaways Private Resort and Cruise Club program debunks the myth of �too good to be true� prices and �vacation scams� by offering its members a full, no questions asked, 100% money back guarantee. The offer has been so well received by website owners that more than 700 web sites within the Commission Junction community have signed up to promote the �Good life Getaways� within the first 8 days.
