History

Initially published in 1937 as U.S. Camera and Travel, the magazine later assumed the name Travel + Leisure in 1971.[3][4] The predecessor titles focused on travel photography, but the name change signaled a shift toward travel coverage in general.

The magazine specializes in leisure travel and often features articles written by novelists, poets, artists, designers and non-travel journalists. It is known for its travel photography and covers featuring models lounging in upscale environments.

Its World's Best Awards, an annual reader survey rating airports, cities, cruise ships, hotels and islands have been announced every August since 1995. Votes added by the magazine's readers are taken into consideration to recognize and give out the awards.[5] Other annual features include the T+L 500, a list of the world's top 500 hotels, and America's Favorite Cities, where readers rank U.S. cities in different categories.

Travel + Leisure magazine was purchased from American Express Publishing by Time Inc. (which would later be acquired by Meredith Corporation) on October 1, 2013.[6][7]

gollark: They do tend to, at least, use tons of RAM because Java Edition is increasingly terribly programmed.
gollark: I have something a tiny bit like that because I needed a way for some base systems to communicate status to each other (reactor control based on main capacitor bank level), but that's basically just a network protocol/library and not really a GUI.
gollark: There are a bunch of CC ones for wireless redstone which are somewhat like that.
gollark: My most complex one is several thousand lines of code and originated as a complex prank for someone annoying.
gollark: There is that mod which lets you run essentia and stuff through AE2, and autocraft stuff with vis, isn't there?
