The working group was covered by the United Nations Statistics Division, with the participation of the Statistical Office of the European Communities, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development and the World Tourism Organization. These three bodies will promote the implementation of the recommendations in their member countries. The recommendations were approved by the Statistical Commission at its thirty-first session, in 2000. 1 The fundamental structure of the tourism satellite account recommendations is based on the general balance existing within an economy between the demand for products generated by tourism and their supply. The idea behind the construction of a tourism satellite account is to analyse in detail all the aspects of demand for goods and services which might be associated with tourism within the economy; to observe the operational interface with the supply of such goods and services within the same economy of reference; and to describe how this supply interacts with other economic activities.

  • The Status of Women in the Uk Travel & Tourism Industry
    THE STATUS OF WOMEN IN THE UK TRAVEL & TOURISM INDUSTRY: An evaluation of the cruise and tour operator sectors In collaboration with AWTE Prepared by Dr Petra Glover and Angela O’Reilly based on dissertations by Heather Bratton and Angelina Periskic UNIVERSITY OF EAST LONDON SCHOOL OF BUSINESS & LAW DELIVERED MARCH 2016 THE STATUS OF WOMEN IN THE UK TRAVEL & TOURISM INDUSTRY: AN EVALUATION OF THE CRUISE AND TOUR OPERATOR SECTORS Allow us to proudly introduce the AWTE Women In Travel Empowerment Index. With this inaugural survey, AWTE has created a vehicle that will, on an annual basis, provide the definitive guide to the status of women within the UK travel and hospitality industries. This will enable us to monitor and advise on the empowerment of women within this sector of the economy. We, in conjunction with the University of East London intend to supply benchmarking data that, over time, can show the progress (or otherwise) of women in the sector – both in current leadership roles and influence, and in predicting future trends in female leadership of the travel and hospitality industries. The word empowerment is positive. The report will celebrate how well women are doing within the industry as well as illustrate the potential they have and can bring to the industry in addition to highlighting areas of the sector that could do better. The role of women and their success in the UK travel and hospitality sector has until now largely been based on anecdotal evidence. With this empirical evidence we can now have a meaningful debate and help devise a clear strategy.

  • Travel Leaders Echo Experts: Make Fact-Based Decisions About Traveling U.S
    Travel Leaders Echo Experts: Make Fact-Based Decisions About Traveling U.S. Officials: "It Is Safe for Healthy Americans to Travel" WASHINGTON (March 10, 2020)—A coalition of 150 travel-related organizations issued the following statement on the latest developments around coronavirus (signatories below): "For the travel and hospitality industry, the safety of the traveling public, our guests and our employees is of the utmost importance. We are in daily contact with public health authorities and are acting on the most up-to-date information on the evolving coronavirus situation. "Health and government officials have continually assured the public that healthy Americans can 'confidently travel in this country.' While it's critically important to remain vigilant and take useful precautions in times like these, it's equally important to make calm, rational, and fact- based decisions. "Though the headlines may be worrisome, experts continue to say the overall coronavirus risk in the U.S. remains low. At-risk groups are older individuals and those with underlying health conditions, who should take extra precautions. "The latest expert guidance indicates that for the overwhelming majority, it's OK to live, work, play and travel in the U.S. By seeking and heeding the latest expert guidance—which includes vigorous use of good health practices, similar to the preventive steps recommended for the seasonal flu—America's communities will stay strong and continue to thrive. The decision to cancel travel and events has a trickle-down effect that threatens to harm the U.S. economy, from locally owned hotels, restaurants, travel advisors and tour operators to the service and frontline employees who make up the backbone of the travel industry and the American economy.

  • Youth Tourists' Profile and Their Travel Choices As
    European Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Research Vol.1, No. 3, pp. 22-35,December 2013 Published by European Centre for Resarch Training and Development UK(www.ea-journals.org) YOUTH TOURISTS’ PROFILE AND THEIR TRAVEL CHOICES AS INFLUENCED BY SOCIAL MEDIA NETWORKS Panagiota Dionysopoulou Hellenic Open University, Parodos Aristotelous 18, Patra, 26 335, Greece John Mylonakis 10 Nikiforou str. Glyfada, Athens, Greece ABSTRACT: The development of Social Media has conveyed important changes in the behavioural models of tourists, as well as, in the way users search, assess, produce, purchase and consume information, products and services. The scope of this paper is to study the effects of Social Media on youth tourism, the profile of young tourists’ actively participating in Social Networks, as well as, the effects of information absorbed through them on their travel decisions. The research was based on a sample of 254 young people between 16-29 years old with the use of a questionnaire of 25 close and open questions. It is designed to examine the demographic and specific traits of young people and the way of planning their trip through information and stimuli they receive from Social Media. Research found that although young people spend much time for their activities in Social Media, the rates of influence in their tourist behaviour is not as high as those of relative researches in abroad. This finding is not necessarily negative, since the presence of portal and travel magazines, travel agency are being felt more and more in Social Media. It has, also, been found that users are more positive to add to their contacts travel portals and magazines than commercial enterprises, because their environment is more friendly and familiar to the user.

  • The University of Hull the Package Holiday
    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL THE PACKAGE HOLIDAY; PARTICIPANT, CHOICE AND BEHAVIOUR being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in The Department of Geography The University, Hull by Andrew Nicholas Laing, B.Sc. September 1987 GEOGRAPHY 3 0 SEP 19 87 SUMMARY OF THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Andrew N. Laing THE PACKAGE HOLIDAY; PARTICIPANT, CHOICE AND BEHAVIOUR This research provides an explanation of package holidaymaking behaviour based on the analysis of data gathered through 303 interview-administered questionnaires in Hull. Strict statistical links are used hand-in-hand with informal, qualitative information to generate a thorough understanding of key elements in the holiday decision-making process. Three levels of behaviour are examined. General participation separates the package holidaymaking population from non-holidaymakers and independent travellers. Package holiday 'habits' are then examined; repeat purchasing, booking I the holiday party, services, timing and behaviour whilst on holiday. Finally, spatial patterns are analysed according to relative location (travel time, linear distance, and the home/abroad dichotomy) and absolute location (proximity to the coast, and resort qualities). Explanation is largely based on the holidaymaker's characteristics, represented by trad- itional sociodemographic and economic measures, and by a number of life- style factors. The finer investigation of spatial patterns is accompanied by a detailed analysis of destination choice, primarily structured around information sources, place-specificity and the resort characteristics sought after. The destination decision, and its role in overall choice of holiday, acts as a unifying theme throughout the research. Holiday choice emerges as a highly individualistic phenomenon loosely set within a framework of predictive parameters.

  • Travel Surveys
    A1D10: Committee on Travel Survey Methods Chairman: Elaine Murakami, Federal Highway Administration Travel Surveys ROBERT GRIFFITHS, Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments A. J. RICHARDSON, University of Sydney, Australia MARTIN E. H. LEE-GOSSELIN, Université Laval, Quebec City, Canada Travel surveys will continue to be one of the most important ways of obtaining the critical information needed for transportation planning and decision making in the new millennium. Not only will these surveys be used to gather current information about the demographic, socioeconomic, and trip-making characteristics of individuals and households, but they will also be used to further our understanding of travel in relation to the choice, location, and scheduling of daily activities. This will enable us to enhance our travel forecasting methods and improve our ability to predict changes in daily travel patterns in response to current social and economic trends and new investments in transportation systems and services. These travel surveys will also play a role in evaluating changes in transportation supply and regulation as they occur. In the last half century, travel survey methods have undergone tremendous change. Originally, travel surveys were conducted primarily through face-to-face interviews, typically conducted in respondents’ homes or at intercept points along major roadways and transit routes or at major transportation nodes. The surveys produced high-quality data that provided a sound basis for the development of the first generation of travel forecasting models. Significant changes in modern urban lifestyles, however, made the large-scale use of traditional face-to-face survey methods extremely costly. In response to these societal changes, travel survey methods have adapted to better fit contemporary lifestyles and have become much more economical to conduct.
