Miami, Florida - This past month, the New York Daily News reported Out Escapes as one of two new flash-sale sites making headlines in the travel sale world for the LGBT community. "Both sites are eager to reach an affluent consumer audience whose buying power is set to reach $790 billion this year," the article reports. "The LGBT community spends $65 billion annually on travel alone, according to Community Marketing."  Read all about it here. 
 

Since launching four weeks ago, Out Escapes has caught the attention of Hotel Chatter, Yahoo News, Travel Channel, BlackBook  About.com, Queerty and Out Traveler .
