The main idea of child-friendly tourism is to consider children's physical and psychological health in all kinds of travel and holiday experiences. Also, it aims to arrange activities in line with children's development skills. Child-friendly trips are an essential part of these skills, as they support personal, sociocultural, and physical contexts for children. Tour guides are one of the most critical companions that support these contexts. This paper tries to uncover how child-friendly trips are done from the perspective of tour guides. It aims to reveal child-friendly trip interpretation, child-friendly tour guides' features, and difficulties. A qualitative research method was used, and tour guides who made domestic and daily child-friendly trips in TURKEY attended the study. Twenty-two semi-structured interviews based on content analysis were examined. The findings revealed that although child-friendly trips have the same characteristics as other group tours, they have different interpretation styles. Tour guides should have specific attributions to successfully affect the children and slog on the trip. Child-friendly tourism literature is a developing field of study with some theoretical gaps. This study contributes to the literature by offering a broader perspective of child-friendly trip context regarding tourist guides.

This paper verifies the capacity of generative AI (ChatGPT in particular) to design a marketing strategy for a hotel by using the example of a 5-star property in the centre of Lisbon. The indicative solutions and reflexive tactics suggested by Dwivedi et al. (2023) were used to develop the prompts based on which ChatGPT designed the hotel's marketing strategy. The proposed approach incorporates the marketing mix elements, including digital marketing tips, the competitive set definition, a name for a marketing campaign, a logo, identification of an appropriate partner and suggested cross-selling actions. This is one of the first attempts to utilise generative AI to design a marketing strategy for a product/service. The findings of this research verify the previous assumption that ChatGPT can write it!

This study explores the role of local food consumption in enhancing Sarawak's image as a food destination, focusing on the moderating impact of food satisfaction. Drawing on a cross-sectional analysis using a self-administered questionnaire, the study investigates the influence of taste and quality value, health value, price value, emotional value, and prestige value on the food destination image. The sample consists of 181 tourists who visited Sarawak, providing insights into visitors' diverse perspectives and preferences. The data was further analysed using SPSS 28.0 and WarpPLS 8.0. The findings reveal that taste, quality, health, emotional, and prestige value significantly affect the food destination image. However, the study has shown that price value has no significant impact. Surprisingly, food satisfaction does not moderate the relationship between local food consumption value and food destination image. Theoretical implications highlight the need for a more comprehensive understanding of the factors shaping consumers' perceptions. In contrast, practical implications suggest strategic considerations for culinary destinations in marketing campaigns and pricing strategies. Overall, this study contributes valuable insights for destination marketers aiming to attract tourists interested in unique culinary experiences and enhance their overall perception of the destination.

Domestic tourism in India recorded impressive growth and supported the local economy significantly in the last phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. The extant research on this topic covers the impact of the pandemic and resilience strategies. Still, it leaves a gap in the discussion relating to the service providers' experience in the context of domestic tourism. The present study stems from the absence of empirical research on the trends associated with domestic tourism growth in India post-COVID. It examines the trends in domestic tourist behaviour from the tour operators’ perspective. It employs a qualitative research design to explore the experiences of tour operators in India. Phone interviews were conducted with 26 tour operators to collect data. A thematic-content analysis is performed to generate themes with the help of Atlas ti software. The findings present the trends, preferences, motivations, and patterns of domestic growth tourism in India.
在 COVID-19 大流行病的最后阶段，印度的国内旅游业取得了令人瞩目的增长，极大地支持了当地经济。关于这一主题的现有研究涵盖了大流行病的影响和恢复战略。但是，关于服务提供商在国内旅游方面的经验的讨论仍然存在空白。本研究正是由于缺乏对 "COVID "后印度国内旅游业增长趋势的实证研究而开展的。本研究从旅游经营者的角度探讨了国内游客的行为趋势。本研究采用定性研究设计来探索印度旅游经营者的经验。为收集数据，对 26 名旅游经营者进行了电话访谈。在 Atlas ti 软件的帮助下，进行了主题内容分析以生成主题。研究结果介绍了印度国内增长型旅游业的趋势、偏好、动机和模式。

Even though sustainable hotel initiatives can increase guests' satisfaction, only a few studies have been conducted on operationalising sustainability. This study focuses on the interpretation of sustainability among accommodation providers and the practices they implement regarding sustainability. in-depth interviews with the managers of hotels and guesthouses are used as the qualitative method to obtain necessary data. The critical selection criterion was the appearance of sustainability in management, especially in communication. The findings show that accommodation providers associate sustainability primarily with environmental aspects, several interviewees describe themselves as “unusual”, and only a few respondents reported that they share their experiences with other service providers. An important implication of the study is that greater emphasis should be put on education and cooperation among service providers.

This article aims to analyze Russia’s efforts, both domestically and internationally, to combat illicit crab harvesting and safeguard its marine resources. A comparison of total crab imports and allowable catch in Russian waters from 1990 to 2022 indicates a peak in shadow activities during the mid-2000s, with a cessation of large-scale illegal fishing observed since 2013. A narrative analysis of institutional shifts reveals that the bolstering of internal oversight, heightened accountability for harvesters, and enhanced global cooperation have been pivotal in fostering these positive dynamics. Concerning trends, however, emerged towards the beginning of the current decade, indicating potential instability within the legal framework of the crab industry. Persistent statistical discrepancies in trade with South Korea, diminishing institutional capacities within Russia to combat shadow activities, and heightened media scrutiny of illicit crab harvesting underscore the need for sustained vigilance in addressing both internal and external dimensions of this multifaceted problem.
