The American Bus Association (ABA) has hired a publishing firm with extensive ties to the travel industry to help with the editorial and advertising functions of its publication, Destinations. Already an award-winning travel magazine, the change will enable ABA to enhance Destinations' reach among the travel industry and expand areas of focus. "Our industry is poised for growth and expansion, and our association is ready to face this challenge by providing business tools the industry will require," said ABA President and CEO Peter Pantuso. ABA will still continue to publish and release monthly resource guides, the annual Best and the Rest, and the popular Top 100 Events in North America publications.
