ABSTRACT This study aims to analyse how memorable local gastronomic experiences and tourists’ gastronomy-related traits influence destination loyalty and future intentions. A fuzzy set model is used to examine these intricate relationships using samples of US tourists who visited Europe and Asia. The findings reveal that dimensions of memorable local gastronomic experience and their influence on destination loyalty differ based on tourists’ personal gastronomic traits. Hospitality explained destination loyalty well when combined with social interaction, neophilia, and local gastronomy tourism-induced wellbeing. Theoretical and practical insights are provided to aid destination planning and local food marketing efforts.

ABSTRACT This paper draws attention to the critical account of green hotels from various stakeholder perspectives. It reviews why and how the green hotel industry is increasingly involved in green initiatives and what results from such efforts, and underpins green sustainability issues ranging from hotel-oriented to individual-oriented factors. How the stakeholders are involved in the process is also observed. There is obvious indication of conservation and pollution management as the mainstream topic in green hotel studies. This paper suggests directions of research in the realm of green hotels, which could serve as a guide for a better conceptualization of future research.

ABSTRACT Although studies in psychology and marketing fields have examined inspiration theory, relevant concepts and measurement tools are lacking for inspiration in the context of destinations. Two studies were conducted. Study 1 involved a literature review and in-depth interviews, which were employed to conceptualize destination inspiration and to develop a reliable and valid scale. In Study 2, the developed scale was applied to investigate the relationship between the antecedents and consequences of destination inspiration. The scale can support in exploring the relationship between destination inspiration and its related constructs; the research model may also guide the direction of future research.

ABSTRACT This inquiry articulates the co-development phenomenon in which improvisation of tourism products is created from multiple suppliers across different domains. Drawing on the S-O-R model and situated cognition theory, a framework was proposed and tested through multilevel analysis with empirical evidence taken from an array of shows held within a festival at various heritage sites. Findings demonstrate a cross-level moderated mediated chain of relationship leading from co-developed festivalscape to an array of event and site outcomes through the mediation of co-developed experience. This research extends the stimulus-organism-response mechanism to conjecture the situated S-O-R model based on the situated cognition thesis.

ABSTRACT This study characterizes a destination network based on travel flow. Although the tourism literature has mostly discussed the static configurations of network structures, this study presents a dynamic destination network considering four seasons and daily periods. Given the advancement of connected technology, mobile sensor big data collected from international travelers visiting Korea were analyzed to explore movement behaviors across 250 cities in the country. Results demonstrate the dynamics of complex network systems in tourism destinations over time, such as seasons and diurnal variations. Its findings are crucial for developing vibrant destination management and contextual marketing.

ABSTRACT This study uses the Qingdao International Beer Festival as an example to grasp the festival travelers’ experience quality. It investigates the critical relations among image factors in forming loyalty intentions for the festival. A psychometric process with qualitative and quantitative approaches is utilized. Community support and perceived risk of virus infection are uncovered as significant moderators, broadening the developed theoretical framework. The proposed theoretical and managerial implications provide orientations for scholars and practitioners in the field of festivals on how to design appropriate festival products and cultivate festive brands during the with-coronavirus era.

ABSTRACT Drawing on teleology, this study aims to conceptualize destination smartness from a tourist perspective by identifying what intelligences a “smart” destination has executed. Thematic analysis of 25 interviews with experienced “smart tourists” unveiled a hierarchical framework of destination smartness, visualizing the components of destination smartness as seen by tourists. Eight identified intelligences were then situated within a 2 (crystalized development path–fluid development path) × 2 (task-oriented focus–interaction-oriented focus) × 2 (active service provision–passive service provision) plane. This study also lays a theoretical foundation for future studies and provides practical implications for the development of smart tourism.

ABSTRACT Standing out in the tourists’ hotel booking process is important for hotels in today’s competitive environment. To effectively promote hotels, it is necessary to have a deeper grasp of the factors affecting tourists’ hotel choices. To this end, this research examines the effects of psychological distance (temporal and spatial) and social influence on tourists’ hotel booking preferences based on the Construal-Level Theory (CLT). Social influence is identified as a moderator between psychological distance and tourists’ booking preferences; whole perceived message quality is identified as a mediator. The paper concludes with theoretical implications, practical implications, and ideas for future research.

ABSTRACT This study investigates residents’ intention to support Muslim tourism (ITSMT) through the lens of residents of non-Islamic countries. By integrating the Social Exchange Theory (SET), Emotional Solidarity Framework (ESF) and the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), our findings confirmed that welcoming nature was the most salient factor to attenuate the negative effect of perceived risk from Islamophobia by South Korean and Americans residents. The fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) suggested the three different configurations that can explain the formation of residents’ intentions. fsQCA also validated the importance of incorporating ESF, SET and TRA into a unified framework.

ABSTRACT COVID-19 is substantially reshaping the tourism and hospitality industries but studies on the changes in travel behaviour in response to the pandemic are limited. Using tourism big data, this research applies network science analytics to determine behavioural changes in travel mobility of domestic travellers who visited Jeju Island, Korea, from June 2019 to December 2020. The findings reveal significant reductions in the number of trips to a destination but also limited spatial connectivity and diversity in travel flow during the pandemic. A higher intensity of travel mobility to outdoor and coastal areas and shorter travel distances are evident during COVID-19.
