Based on two surveys conducted by the authors in 2012, this work focuses on Castilla-La Mancha (CLM, Spain), a rural region under the influence of Madrid. The empirical results demonstrate the effectiveness of consider- ing different functional linkages when explaining the underlying urban network. In particular, the results reinforce the idea of consolidating the polycentric spatial organization of urban centers in CLM, although this concentration is greater for commuting travel purposes and for highly skilled professionals.

This is reflected in our six-page Afeature article on the CWT Travel Price Forecast, our annual look-ahead at the upcoming year. The Forecast discusses how our industry might deal with what one can only describe as deep-seated “uncertainty”.

The forecast offers some sage advice, which will be particularly pertinent to travel managers planning the year ahead. As well as delving into the sometimes murky world of hotel ratings, plus providing some tips on staying fresh when at a conference, we recommend some of the best apps to help you save time. And our big destination feature for this issue looks at getting a good return on investment when visiting New York for business.
