Q: How do I log in to check my expiration date, change my address, or extend my subscription?
A: Look at the mailing label on your next Airstream Life magazine (on the plastic bag). A username and password are printed on the label. See page 5 of your most recent magazine for an example. Use that information to log in here. If you don’t have your label, send us a note.
Q: How long is the Airstream Life magazine?
Printed issues run between 64 and 80 pages.
Q: When is Airstream Life published?
Issues are published and mailed quarterly. The Spring issue comes out in February, Summer in May, Fall in August, and Winter in November.
Q: Where’s my copy? Everyone else has theirs already!
Periodicals like Airstream Life get handled differently by the post office than First Class mail. It will take up to three weeks for your issue to arrive, from the day it is mailed. We don’t have any control over this, unfortunately. Please be patient, but if it has been over three weeks since mailing, use our contact form to request a replacement copy.
Q: Is Airstream Life available on newsstands or other outlets?
You can sometimes find Airstream Life at the retail outlets of select Airstream dealers, but their copies usually disappear quickly! The best way to get it is to subscribe.
Q: When will I get my first issue?
If you paid our regular rate of $24 for a one-year subscription, you will receive the next issue when it is printed. This can be up to 12 weeks, since Airstream Life is published quarterly. If you choose our “Get Your First Issue Fast” option at $4 additional, we will mail the most recent issue printed within two weeks. Thereafter you’ll be on the regular issue schedule.
Q: Can I get back issues, too?
Yes, you can while supplies last. Back issues are $8 each. Just check off the appropriate box on our subscription form.

Q: I’d like to submit an article or a photo, how do I do this?
A: Just take a look at our Writer’s Guidelines and follow the instructions. We pay for articles and some photos published in the magazine, and are constantly reviewing article proposals from both experienced professionals and talented amateurs!
Q: Do you accept press releases?
A: Press releases from companies and organizations serving the Airstream owner community are welcome, however we have limited space available to print announcements. Those most likely to be selected for inclusion in the magazine will have significant and direct relevance to the Airstream user community. Examples include interesting commercial uses of Airstreams for promotion, unique new products (appropriate for Rivet Bits, or Mobile Technology), and news about destinations suitable for Airstreams.
Press releases announcing staff changes, corporate-level activity, pricing or sales, etc., are not suitable.
To submit a press release, either use our contact form or mail it in (see contact page).
