Purpose Meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE) tourism has established as a tourism segment that is growing in popularity. It is less seasonality dependent, promotes the offer of services and contributes to the development of the sector. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the competitiveness factors for the improvement of MICE tourism in the city of Mazatlan. Design/methodology/approach It was developed with a mixed approach, using quantitative and qualitative data collection techniques, such as interviews with experts, surveys of stakeholders in the tourism sector and documentary analysis. Based on the theoretical review, the following four competitiveness factors were defined for MICE tourism: 1) resource factors, 2) destination management factors, 3) conditioning factors of the environment and 4) conditioning factors of the demand, applying and importance-performance analysis. Findings The results indicate that the factors of competitiveness in the case of the study that had greater importance and better performance are the conditioning factors of the demand and resource factors. However, the development and implementation of comprehensive destination management strategies are required to improve this segment, as well as giving due importance to taking into account the important conditioning factors of the environment. Originality/value This study makes a theoretical contribution to the literature on the competitiveness of tourist destinations in the MICE segment by identifying the factors for its development, as well as the practical implications for the specific case study. In addition to this, it was identified that there are few empirical studies that analyze the factors that contribute to improving the competitiveness of this segment.
会议、奖励、会议和展览(MICE)旅游已经成为一个越来越受欢迎的旅游领域。它对季节性的依赖程度较低,促进了服务的提供,并有助于该部门的发展。因此,本研究旨在分析马萨特兰市会展旅游提升的竞争力因素。设计/方法/方法采用混合方法,使用定量和定性数据收集技术,例如与专家的访谈、对旅游业利益相关者的调查和文献分析。在理论综述的基础上,定义了会展旅游的四个竞争力要素:1)资源因素、2)目的地管理因素、3)环境调节因素、4)需求调节因素、应用与重要性绩效分析。研究结果表明,在本研究案例中,对企业竞争力具有更大重要性和更好绩效的因素是需求因素和资源因素的调节因素。然而,需要制定和实施综合目的地管理战略来改善这一细分市场,并适当重视考虑环境的重要条件因素。本研究通过识别影响会展业旅游目的地竞争力的因素,对会展业旅游目的地竞争力的文献研究做出了理论贡献,并为具体案例研究提供了实践意义。除此之外,还发现很少有实证研究分析有助于提高这一细分市场竞争力的因素。

PurposeThis study aims to provide a cutting-edge evaluation of the sharing economy's impact within the realm of tourism and hospitality. The primary objectives guiding this research are as follows: to uncover the prevalent discussions and debates within the tourism and hospitality sector concerning the implications and effects of the sharing economy on urban destinations; and to analyse how scholarly inquiries and empirical investigations have contributed to a comprehensive comprehension of the intricate theoretical foundations and practical intricacies inherent in the sharing economy. This exploration takes place within the extensive expanse of existing literature.MethodologyThe study used the non-conventional method for data mining. An artificial intelligence (AI) tool called www.dimensions.ai was used to mine data between the year 2002 and 2021. After which the data was analysed, using Citespace software that assisted in building themes for answering the research questions.FindingsThe sharing economy has multifaceted implications for rural and urban destinations. For instance, the findings demonstrated that emotional solidarity fosters community bonds between tourists and residents, enhancing authenticity. While, management firms optimise short-term rentals, boosting revenue and occupancy rates despite capped at 20%. It further demonstrated that the sharing economy disrupts traditional accommodations, especially hotels, impacting rural and urban destinations differently based on location and regulatory flexibility. Technological advancements would shape the digital future, transforming the resource in sharing and connectivity in urban settings.Practical implicationsManagement firms or agents significantly enhance property facilities, revenue and occupancy rates. Properties managed by professionals perform better in terms of revenue and occupancy; furthermore, traditional accommodations need innovative strategies to compete with sharing economy platforms. Policymakers must consider location-specific regulations to balance sharing economy impacts. Embracing technological advancements ensures urban destinations stay relevant and competitive.Social implicationsEmotional solidarity fosters bonds between residents and tourists, contributing to a sense of community. Management firms contribute to local economies and stability. However, Airbnb's impact on traditional accommodations raises concerns about the effect on residents and communities.Theoretical implicationsThe study incorporates classical sociology theory to understand emotional solidarity and extends the concept of moral economy to guide economic behaviour in the sharing economy. The analysis also underscores the influence of technological trends such as mobile technology, Internet of Things, AI and blockchain on sharing practices in reshaping existing theoretical frameworks in the sharing atmosphere.

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to understand how sustainability orientation influences economic, environmental and social sustainability performance and the moderating role of environmental hostility on these relationships. This study aims to deepen the consequences of the strategic commitment to sustainability of tourism firms located in the World Heritage Cities of Cusco, Lima and Arequipa in Peru.Design/methodology/approachThe empirical analysis was conducted on a sample of 238 tourism firms. The authors implemented structural equation modelling technique to contrast the hypothesis.FindingsThe results shows that sustainability orientation has a positive effect on social and environmental performance mainly, but also on both financial and non-financial economic performance. The authors also detect a significant negative moderating effect of environmental hostility, which is accentuated in the case of social and economic-financial performance.Practical implicationsThis study provides interesting practical implications in the tourism sector. Firms should develop a strategic commitment to sustainability, even in hostile environments, to improve their competitive position while reducing the negative impact of their activity on the natural and social environment. Institutions should encourage firms to commit to sustainability to achieve more sustainable and competitive urban tourism destinations.Originality/valueThis study advances the controversial debate on whether sustainability orientation of tourism firms leads to better economic performance. Moreover, from triple bottom line approach, it provides a holistic view of how sustainability orientation affects sustainability performance in all its dimensions. Finally, this paper delves into the complexities and challenges of sustainable urban tourism.
目的了解可持续发展取向对经济、环境和社会可持续发展绩效的影响,以及环境敌意对这些关系的调节作用。本研究旨在加深位于秘鲁库斯科、利马和阿雷基帕等世界遗产城市的旅游公司对可持续发展战略承诺的影响。本研究以238家旅游企业为样本进行实证分析。作者运用结构方程建模技术对假设进行对比。结果表明:可持续发展取向主要对社会绩效和环境绩效有正向影响,但对财务和非财务经济绩效也有正向影响。作者还发现了环境敌意的显著负调节效应,这在社会和经济金融绩效的情况下得到了强调。实际意义本研究为旅游业提供了有趣的实际意义。公司应制定可持续发展的战略承诺,即使在不利的环境中,以提高其竞争地位,同时减少其活动对自然和社会环境的负面影响。各机构应鼓励企业致力于可持续发展,以实现更具可持续性和竞争力的城市旅游目的地。原创性/价值本研究进一步探讨了旅游企业的可持续发展取向是否会带来更好的经济绩效。此外,从三重底线的方法,它提供了一个整体的观点,可持续发展取向如何影响可持续发展绩效的所有维度。最后,本文探讨了可持续城市旅游的复杂性和挑战。

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to find out the factors that influence dental travelers’ revisit intention (RI) to Tijuana, Mexico.Design/methodology/approachBased on the push and pull model, five constructs were included: quality service, price, supporting services, cultural proximity and quality information. The information was obtained by applying an online survey to a sample of 384 dental tourists in Tijuana, Mexico, who were repeat patients of a dental clinic in Tijuana after the COVID-19 pandemic. Exploratory factor analysis, average variance explained and composite reliability were conducted to ensure the validity of each construct. Multiple regression analysis was done to identify predictors of travelers’ RI.FindingsThe results obtained show that cultural proximity, quality service, price and supporting services influenced the travelers’ revisit behavior after the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the body of knowledge on travel behavior in dental tourism after the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, which has been scarcely studied. Also, RI was analyzed, focusing on repeated travelers to propose a model mainly for borders or frontiers where developed and developing countries co-exist and interact.

PurposeThis study aims to examine the process of tourism gentrification from China tourists, a major source market, in two neighbourhoods in Hong Kong: one that has been long exposed to tourism and one that is just being discovered by tourists. Through a series of in-depth interviews with local residents and community leaders, complemented by non-participant observation, the paper tracks the commercial, social and cultural changes that have occurred or are occurring in these two places.Design/methodology/approachThis study evaluates the process of place change through tourism gentrification in two neighbourhoods in Hong Kong that are at different stages of the process. An ontological approach is adopted using an interpretivist paradigm involving in-depth interviews and on-site observations, supplemented by secondary data. These data were complemented by non-participant observation.FindingsBoth the places have been transformed due to the influx of mainland Chinese tourists. Some impacts felt by both communities have much in common, such as congestion and shop dislocation, while others are more location specific. Even though the degree of tourism gentrification is different, locals from both locations tend to hold negative perceptions towards tourists, although of different strengths. All have also noted the traditional social cohesion is not as strong as before.Originality/valueThe paper argues that tourism gentrification exists on a continuum as neighbourhoods move seemingly inextricably from local-centric nodes to tourist-centric nodes. Apart from enlightening the theory of tourism gentrification, it provides insights to the local leaders on proper tourism development by balancing the social and economic benefits.
本研究旨在探讨香港两个社区的旅游贵族化过程,其中一个是长期接触旅游业的社区,另一个是刚刚被游客发现的社区,中国游客是一个主要的客源市场。通过对当地居民和社区领导人的一系列深入访谈,辅以非参与性观察,本文追踪了这两个地方已经发生或正在发生的商业、社会和文化变化。设计/方法/方法本研究以香港两个处于不同阶段的社区为研究对象,评估旅游高档化对地方变化的影响。采用本体论方法,采用解释主义范式,包括深入访谈和现场观察,并辅以二手数据。这些数据由非参与者观察补充。由于中国大陆游客的涌入,这两个地方都发生了变化。两个社区感受到的一些影响有很多共同之处,比如交通拥堵和商店错位,而其他影响则更具体。尽管旅游高档化程度不同,但两地的当地人往往对游客持负面看法,尽管优势不同。所有人都注意到传统的社会凝聚力没有以前那么强了。本文认为,随着社区似乎不可避免地从以当地为中心的节点向以游客为中心的节点移动,旅游高绅化存在于一个连续体中。除了对旅游士绅化理论的启发外,它还为当地领导人提供了平衡社会效益和经济效益的正确旅游发展的见解。

PurposeThis paper aims to investigate the effect of tourists’ social media usage when planning trips on the probability of tourists consuming nightlife activities and their spending on nightlife consumption.Design/methodology/approachTwo thousand questionnaires comprising questions about social media usage, consumption of nightlife entertainment and decisions to consume nightlife activities are distributed to international visitors at the departure hall of Phuket International Airport. A series of regressions are estimated. A Heckman two-step correction model is conducted to avoid the potential of selection bias.FindingsResults show that the information available on Facebook positively links with the probability of tourists consuming nightlife activities. Furthermore, findings indicate that the usage of YouTube in tourist trip planning could statistically influence tourists to spend more on their nightlife consumption. Therefore, the results suggest that entrepreneurs could use Facebook to stimulate tourists’ nightlife consumption, while YouTube could be used to elevate tourists’ spending on nightlife consumption. The influence of these two social media sites on tourists’ decisions aids the authorities in the mitigation of the negative impacts of nightlife tourism.Originality/valueGiven the increasing role of social media in tourists’ consumption choices, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first paper to quantitatively explore the relationship between tourists’ social media usage and nightlife consumption in Thailand. The revealed relationship between the use of specific social media sites (Facebook and YouTube) and tourists’ decisions to consume and the amount spent on nightlife consumption could be used by nightlife tourism entrepreneurs and destination marketers in their marketing campaigns, yielding competitive advantages. Meanwhile, related authorities and non-profit organisations could apply this study’s findings to demarket tourists’ consumption of nightlife activities in areas affected by the negative impacts of tourists’ nightlife consumption.
目的研究游客在制定旅行计划时使用社交媒体对游客消费夜生活活动概率和夜生活消费支出的影响。设计/方法/方法在普吉岛国际机场的出发大厅向国际游客分发了2000份问卷,其中包括关于社交媒体使用情况、夜生活娱乐消费和夜生活活动消费决定的问题。估计了一系列的回归。采用Heckman两步修正模型,避免了选择偏差的可能性。研究结果表明,Facebook上可获得的信息与游客消费夜生活活动的可能性呈正相关。此外,研究结果表明,在旅游旅行计划中使用YouTube可以统计地影响游客在夜生活消费上的花费。因此,研究结果表明,企业家可以利用Facebook来刺激游客的夜生活消费,而利用YouTube来提高游客的夜生活消费支出。这两个社交媒体网站对游客决策的影响有助于当局减轻夜生活旅游的负面影响。原创性/价值鉴于社交媒体在游客消费选择中的作用越来越大,据作者所知,这是第一篇定量探讨泰国游客社交媒体使用与夜生活消费之间关系的论文。特定社交媒体网站(Facebook和YouTube)的使用与游客消费决策和夜生活消费金额之间的关系可以被夜生活旅游企业家和目的地营销人员在营销活动中使用,从而产生竞争优势。同时,相关部门和非营利组织可以应用本研究的结果,在受游客夜生活消费负面影响的地区对游客的夜生活活动消费进行市场化。

PurposeThe nuclear purpose of this research paper is to analyse representative bridges around the world as a tourist attraction and iconic element through destination marketing organisations’ (DMOs’) tourism official websites where these are localised and three online travel agencies’ (OTAs’) websites.Design/methodology/approachThis research used a mixed method. The author carried out Google research (13 March 2023) that included the following search word string “iconic bridges around the world” and “the most famous bridges worldwide” to select the most relevant bridges around the globe. Moreover, this research used a content analysis to examine how Expedia, Booking and Orbitz OTAs promote the bridges through their websites in terms of a tourist attraction, iconic element, tourist package, images and information.FindingsFindings suggest that the most representative bridges analysed in this study are promoted as iconic element and tourist attraction through DMOs’ websites. Nevertheless, Booking, Expedia and Orbitz OTAs promote and sell products and services related to bridges selected, except in the case of the Millau Viaduct in France, the Si-O-Se-Pol bridge in Iran, the Danyang Kunshan Grand bridge in China and the Royal Gorge in the USA. Furthermore, results support that OTAs need to enhance the quality and variety of products and services that are linked to iconic bridges sightseeing tours because at the moment, there is a great uniformity in the promotion of products and services provided.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to broader debates in the importance of bridges as a tourist attraction and iconic element to attract tourists through tourism promotion websites.

PurposeThe boom of new players in the accommodation sector has led to an increase in the level of competitiveness and has highlighted the importance of using key performance indicators (KPIs) in organisational decision-making processes as efficient tools for thriving in the growingly competitive environment. This study aims to assess the use of KPIs by owner-managers of small and medium-sized short-term rental accommodation (STRA) units.Design/methodology/approachTo achieve this aim, this research encompasses two different primary data collection methods conducted in 2021. Firstly, from April to May, a set of exploratory interviews with experts within the STRA domain was planned. Secondly, an intensive data collection, from June to September, included an online questionnaire with close-ended questions to a sample of all the companies that manage STRA units in Portugal.FindingsThese managers tend to use more widely financial and operational KPIs that depict relationships with guests and reflect the activity of the STRA units, the external environment and the innovation level. Moreover, younger managers and those with higher levels of education tend to use a “monitoring review of digital platforms” KPI, while less experienced managers use financial and operational KPIs and senior and higher experienced managers place greater value on KPIs associated with customer relationships.Originality/valueSTRA units hold a very relevant position in the hospitality industry, and it is urgent to generate more information to better understand this growing subsector. This research contributes to the literature providing evidence on the importance of KPI to STRA units, for owner-managers and for urban tourism, considering their growth, proliferation and importance for the planning of cities by destination management organisations.
住宿行业新参与者的激增导致了竞争力水平的提高,并突出了在组织决策过程中使用关键绩效指标(kpi)作为在竞争日益激烈的环境中蓬勃发展的有效工具的重要性。本研究旨在评估中小短期租赁住宿(STRA)单位的业主经理对kpi的使用情况。设计/方法/方法为了实现这一目标,本研究包括2021年进行的两种不同的主要数据收集方法。首先,从4月到5月,计划对STRA领域内的专家进行一系列探索性访谈。其次,从6月到9月,我们进行了密集的数据收集,包括对所有管理STRA在葡萄牙子公司的公司样本进行封闭式问题的在线问卷调查。这些经理倾向于更广泛地使用财务和运营kpi,这些kpi描述了与客人的关系,反映了STRA单位的活动、外部环境和创新水平。此外,年轻的管理人员和受教育程度较高的管理人员倾向于使用“数字平台的监控审查”KPI,而经验不足的管理人员使用财务和运营KPI,而资深和经验更高的管理人员更重视与客户关系相关的KPI。创意/价值部门在酒店业中占有非常重要的地位,迫切需要获得更多信息,以便更好地了解这个不断增长的细分行业。考虑到目的地管理组织对城市规划的增长、扩散和重要性,本研究为文献提供了KPI对STRA单位、业主管理者和城市旅游业重要性的证据。

PurposeSmart Heritage is a recently established discourse that entwines smartness and the heritage discipline. Studies have shown that place identity is at the core of value-based frameworks of built heritage. This study aims to unveil the role of identity in existing Smart Heritage frameworks, which is currently a gap in existing research.Design/methodology/approachTo better understand place identity in the Smart Heritage context and facilitate future framework establishments, this study uses a cross-case analysis method to scrutinise common trends in the identity development of seven current best practices.FindingsThe results show that current best practices involve smart technologies in sustaining or rebuilding heritage identities, mostly mapped on the local scale. Catered solutions are essential in this context due to historic cities’ variegated pursuits of identity. Most current Smart Heritage projects are at the transitioning stage from digital to smart, as the autonomous ability of smart innovations is yet to be fully realised on the city or the global scale. Researchers are encouraged to draw essence from existing heritage frameworks considering the built heritage’s place identity, which is at the core of culturally sustainable Smart Heritage transitions.Originality/valueThis study concludes with five recommendations for addressing heritage identity in Smart Heritage frameworks, targeting future research avenues. Also, this study furthers the discussion on the linkage of Smart Heritage, place identity and marketing strategy, contributing to the city branding and tourism management field. Future research should extend the case-study selection beyond Europe, which is a recognised limitation of this study.
目的智慧遗产是最近建立的话语,交织智慧和遗产学科。研究表明,地点认同是建筑遗产价值框架的核心。本研究旨在揭示身份在现有智能遗产框架中的作用,这是目前现有研究中的一个空白。设计/方法/方法为了更好地理解智慧遗产背景下的地方身份,并促进未来框架的建立,本研究采用跨案例分析方法,仔细研究七种当前最佳实践中身份发展的共同趋势。研究结果表明,目前的最佳实践涉及到维持或重建遗产身份的智能技术,主要是在当地范围内绘制。由于历史城市对身份的多样化追求,餐饮解决方案在这种情况下至关重要。目前大多数智慧遗产项目都处于从数字化到智能的过渡阶段,因为智能创新的自主能力尚未在城市或全球范围内得到充分实现。研究人员被鼓励从现有的遗产框架中汲取精华,考虑到建筑遗产的地方身份,这是文化可持续智能遗产转型的核心。独创性/价值本研究总结了在智能遗产框架中解决遗产身份问题的五项建议,并针对未来的研究途径提出了建议。并进一步探讨智慧遗产、场所认同与营销策略的联动,为城市品牌建设与旅游管理领域做出贡献。未来的研究应该将案例研究的选择扩展到欧洲以外,这是本研究公认的局限性。

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the relationship between the motivation and satisfaction of visitors, both tourists and residents, of a sacred urban complex located in Santa Catarina, Brazil.Design/methodology/approachThis descriptive research uses quantitative and survey methods to collect the data. The sample of this study consists of 400 visitors, comprising tourists and residents who were in Vale das Graças, Santa Catarina, Brazil, between August and September 2019. Descriptive statistics and linear regression analysis were used to analyse the data.FindingsThe results of this study showed people who visit the site for reasons of religious belief, cultural pleasure and mental relaxation feel satisfied and emotionally touched by the religious atmosphere. It was also perceived that all dimensions of satisfaction significantly influenced the motivation to visit the Vale da Graça; that is, tourists and residents tend to feel more motivated to visit the Sacred Complex when they are satisfied with the contact with faith provoked by the visit.Originality/valueThis research provides theoretical and managerial contributions. Initially, this study contributes to research related to urban religious tourism and the perception of residents and tourists (visitors) in relation to a sacred complex. In general, this research on the subject investigated only the tourist's perspective. In addition, this study also brings management contributions for the destination administrators by understanding the behaviour of visitors to religious tourist sites located in the urban area of municipalities and giving their opinions on the satisfaction and motivation of aspects related to religious contact to visit such sites, thus helping in the management process of the attraction and surroundings.
本文的目的是分析位于巴西圣卡塔琳娜的一个神圣的城市综合体的游客和居民的动机和满意度之间的关系。设计/方法/方法本描述性研究采用定量和调查方法收集数据。本研究的样本包括400名游客,包括2019年8月至9月期间在巴西圣卡塔琳娜州格拉帕拉斯谷的游客和居民。采用描述性统计和线性回归分析对数据进行分析。研究结果表明,出于宗教信仰、文化享受和精神放松的原因访问该网站的人对宗教氛围感到满意和情感上的感动。人们还认为,满意度的所有方面都显著影响了访问格拉帕拉谷的动机;也就是说,当游客和居民对参观所激发的信仰接触感到满意时,他们往往更有动力去参观神圣建筑群。原创性/价值本研究提供了理论和管理贡献。最初,本研究有助于研究城市宗教旅游以及居民和游客(游客)对神圣建筑群的看法。总的来说,这个主题的研究只调查了游客的角度。此外,本研究也为目的地管理者带来管理贡献,了解城市市区宗教旅游景点的游客行为,并给出他们对宗教接触相关方面的满意度和动机的意见,从而有助于景点和周围环境的管理过程。
