ABSTRACT The literature on cruise tourism is primarily Western-focused, which could differ compared to those in Asia Pacific. To address this gap, this study combines motivation and cruise preferences for a better understanding of repeated Chinese cruisers amid COVID-19 via the use of conjoint and cluster analysis. The findings revealed that shore activity is more important than cabin price and duration. Sight-seeing is the most strongly preferred shore excursion, followed by visiting natural scenery. This study contributes by providing insight into the current views of the Chinese travel market, and provides suggestions to cruise companies on target segments, product design, and marketing strategies in preparation for travel recovery.

ABSTRACT In an age of ubiquitous internet, social media has become a key source of travel information searches and channels of digital marketing. People everywhere are continually exposed to travel information content through social media, whether intended or not. By employing the concept of accidental discovery of information, this study identified the ability of accidental discovery versus purposeful search to affect tourists’ intentions to travel and recommend. Since the younger generations both in China and globally play the role of creating and interpreting trends, this study aimed to investigate the impact of social media usage behaviors in Chinese university students on domestic travel intention. The impact of information structure in social media, including content types and content creators, was further investigated. We found that accidental discovery had a greater impact on behavioral intention than purposeful search, and photo and video content provided a greater impact than text content. Significant influences from DMOs and user comments were also identified. The findings contribute to the knowledge on information searching behavior and digital marketing strategies in destination information dissemination.

ABSTRACT The past two decades has seen a flourishing of research on the characteristics and behaviors of Chinese tourists. Much early research viewed this phenomenon through an essentialist cultural lens; presuming a relatively static and homogeneous market. Recent scholarship has criticized this approach, as risking creating or reinforcing stereotypes of tourists, and overlooking other valid explanations for behavior. Thus, there is a call to focus on cultural complexity, recognizing that culture evolves and responds to changing contexts and situations. Drawing insights from the Sri Lanka host service providers in the retail shopping setting, this study explores the perspectives and responses of host service providers to the characteristics and behavior of the Chinese tourist market with whom they interact. Applying a dynamic and context-specific perspective of culture, the study reveals an evolving and negotiated context in which retail service providers respond to the Chinese market, and adapt their strategies, as the latter also alter their behavior in a dynamic context of host-tourist interactions.

ABSTRACT The Covid-19 pandemic brought radical pedagogical shifts to global higher education. Online teaching/learning has become the mainstream under the context of the pandemic. Although vaccines have been increasingly provided and face-to-face teaching has resumed in some institutions, people are advised to adapt themselves to the changes under the new normal. Lecturers and students still need to be prepared for online teaching/learning in case of another round of outbreak. This study was conducted to generate and compare lecturers’ and students’ assessment of online teaching/learning in hospitality and tourism undergraduate programmes in Mainland China. With the theoretical guidance of the technology acceptance model (TAM), from semi-structured interviews with seventeen lecturers and ten students, a ‘Love’ framework and a ‘Hate’ framework were proposed explaining why lecturers and students love or hate online teaching/learning. Consistency and variances were identified comparing lecturers’ and students’ concerns. Both frameworks extend TAM in the online education setting and can be used as theoretical guidance for future online teaching/learning studies. Findings provide stakeholders clear directions and practical solutions to better prepare for the new normal.

ABSTRACT Despite its importance, moderated mediation analysis of destination food image is understudied in food tourism literature. By applying the stimulus-organism-response framework, the objectives of this study are firstly, to investigate the cognitive food image-intention relationship. Secondly, it will examine how tourists’ desire to try local food is affected by cognitive image of destination food. Thirdly, desire-intention relationship will be investigated. Fourthly, the mediating effect of tourists’ desire to try local food on the cognitive image-intention relationship will be examined. Fifthly, the moderating effect of tourists’ perceived difficulty of finding local food on the desire-intention relationship will be discussed. Lastly, gender as a moderator on the cognitive image-desire relationship will be examined. This research is based on an online survey of 449 Chinese tourists who have visited Macau. Our findings show that tourists’ desire to try destination food mediates the relationship between food image and tourists’ intention to eat destination cuisine. The mediation effect is more salient for low level of tourists’ perceived difficulty of finding destination cuisine. However, gender as a moderator of the image-desire is not significant. The study provides insight to destination management organizations and foodservice businesses on the use of local cuisine in destination promotion.

ABSTRACT Although there have been several studies on international tourism demand, research on outbound tourism has not received as much attention, especially approaching destinations as a region (group of countries). This paper aims to establish outbound tourism demand modeling and determine the role of factors influencing this model. Using Vietnam’s data from 1995 to 2019, the study focuses on eleven main destination countries divided into three regions, namely Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia, and intercontinental. The autoregressive distributed lag model (ADLM) for panel data and robustness tests was deployed and shows that population size and income per capita of the source country are important factors that determine the size of the outbound tourism market. Moreover, traveling abroad remains a luxury service for Vietnamese people, especially to countries in Northeast Asia. Prices also affect outbound tourism demand, but most demand is inelastic by own and cross prices. In addition, the study also pinpoints the competing destinations and complementary destinations for overseas travel trips by Vietnamese people.

ABSTRACT Health information technology has been widely implemented to ensure travel safety in the current normalization stage of COVID-19. However, levels of public trust and acceptance toward health QR codes are low in many countries, impeding tourism recovery after the outbreak. Thus, this study aims to explore the psychological mechanisms underpinning tourist trust, confidence, and behaviors toward traveling with health QR codes. Using a quota sampling, 1089 respondents were collected across mainland China. Results identify that tourists’ trust in health QR codes is affected by knowledge, perceived efficacy, privacy risk, and security. People’s trust in digital health applications can boost travel confidence and increase acceptance of tracing technology and travel intention after the pandemic. Practical implications for developing policies and strategies to encourage travel are provided.

ABSTRACT The casino industry may have been stigmatized by its notorious image due to the negative consequences that gambling brings. Yet, they are at the forefront in combating the pandemic, taking a proactive stand to expedite corporate social responsibility (CSR) through a constellation of means in a timely manner. Moreover, the majority of research focuses on the long-term strategic CSR, leaving ad-hoc CSR initiatives that are responsive without previous planning underexplored. Proactive and prompt CSR efforts exerted by casino conglomerates hence offer researchers a case in better understanding this rarely researched area pertaining to just-in-time CSR amid a mega turbulence. Based on data collected from casino websites, social media, and other public media, we have organized their initiatives into themes germane to safeguarding their personnel and guests, giving encouragement to the society, contributing to financial charities as well as daily necessities and protective supplies, promoting safety and better quality of life during the pandemic, and more. These endeavors do make a real difference in saving lives as well as uniting the community to build up resilience to mitigate the aftermath of the crisis. These expedited CSR efforts render a new phenomenon that we refer as just-in-time CSR.

ABSTRACT At present, tourism endowment is one of the predominant issues in academic circles. Through bibliometric analysis, the present paper utilized CiteSpace software, and employed the core database of ‘Web of Science’ and CNKI. Subsequently, a comparative analysis was conducted on literature related to tourism endowment from 1990 to 2020, revealing the topic’s development over the past 30 years. The results showed: (1) During the research period, the quantity of literature on tourism endowment exhibited a steady rise, which could be roughly divided into three stages. (2) There was a substantial quantity of publications both internationally and in China, but they were mainly independent studies with little collaboration. (3) With regard to the development trends, international tourism endowment research has been relatively mature. On the other hand, China is in a stage of social aging, more in-depth research must be conducted in regard to theory, content, and methods relating to tourism endowment issues.
旅游禀赋是目前学术界研究的热点问题之一。本文通过文献计量学分析，利用CiteSpace软件，采用Web of Science核心数据库和中国知网(CNKI)。随后，对1990年至2020年的旅游禀赋相关文献进行了对比分析，揭示了该主题近30年来的发展。研究结果表明:(1)研究期间，旅游禀赋文献数量呈稳步上升趋势，大致可分为三个阶段。(2)国内外均有大量文献发表，但以独立研究为主，合作较少。(3)就发展趋势而言，国际旅游禀赋研究已经比较成熟。另一方面，中国正处于社会老龄化阶段，旅游养老问题的理论、内容、方法等方面都需要进行更深入的研究。

ABSTRACT This study explores tourism higher education collaboration in China within the broader Chinese context of Government-Industry-Education- Research collaboration. Tourism higher education institutions frequently collaborate with government, industry, educational and research institutions; however, little academic research systematically and comprehensively explores such issues. This study provides a holistic approach to examine models of collaboration and analyze the nature of collaboration by bringing different collaborators together, namely: governments, industry, other educational and research institutions. It puts the discussion in a historical and broader context, and adopts a comparative approach. Western strategy and management theories as well as Chinese culture and philosophies are integrated in the discussion. The study views collaboration as a process and discusses the important factors for collaboration in the process. Theoretical and management implications are discussed. This research provides strategic and managerial implications to Chinese universities on their collaboration activities with governments, industry, other educational and research institutions.
