Full textAbstract:
Currently, information technology plays an important role in the tourism industry. Tourists like to use social media more widely for their travel planning, which affects the high competition between entrepreneurs while facing the challenge of improving the quality of data services provided through social media. This study developed a model of the relationships between structure factors that affect intentions to use social media for travel planning. The said model integrates the technology acceptance model (TAM) theory, the theory of planned behavior (TPB), and trust and satisfaction factors. In reference to a survey of 1333 samples from domestic tourists who used social media through their smartphone, it was found that satisfaction, attitudes, subjective norms, and perception can be used to control behavior, with a positively direct effect on intentions of use. In addition, we examined the indirect effect on intentions of use. Perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and subjective norms had a positively significant indirect effect on intentions of use. These research results allow tourism entrepreneurs to precisely understand the stimulating factors of tourists’ intentions to use social media for travel-planning decisions, which will help lead to the development of tourism-marketing strategies and the support of sustainable competition.

Full textAbstract:
Nowadays, the growing concern of environmental sustainability does not only influence consumers demand but also how companies run their own business. Consumers are more conscious about the environment and demanding environmental friendly products and services. Consequently, the tourism industry currently faces increasing demands from consumers to achieve levels of environmental responsiveness. Thus, companies strive to implement environmentally friendly and socially responsible practices to gain competitive advantage, while still maintaining commercial success. Moreover, empirical evidence indicated that companies increased environmental support results in the development of customer trust and commitment as well as higher profitability. Thus, this study attempts to investigate the antecedents of loyalty in the hotel industry by examining the impacts of attitude toward the hotels environmental concern, subjective norms, perceived value and destination competitiveness on customers future intentions. Also, the comparative examination of these relationships between high and low environmental concern groups was included. Results revealed that perceived value is, followed by destination competiveness, the most powerful predictor of future intentions in both high and low environmental concern groups. In addition, attitude towards the hotels environmental concern significantly influenced future intentions solely in high environmental concern group. Contrary to our expectation, subjective norms exerted no significant effect on future intentions in both groups.

Full textAbstract:
Thailand's inbound tourism industry has grown significantly during the early part of the 21st century. By the end of 2017, Thailand attracted the highest level of international tourist visitation of the 10-nation Association of South East Nations (ASEAN) with 35.38 million international visitors. By 2017, it was the ninth most visited country in the world and ranked second only to China as the most visited national destination in Asia. A key characteristic of Thailand's government destination management and marketing organization [Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT)] and the private sector of Thailand's tourism industry has been a remarkable capacity for destination resilience. This article focuses on the resilience of Thailand as a destination between 2002 and 2018 through the theoretical prism of organizational resilience and the destination sustainability framework. During this period, Thailand's tourism industry overcame a range of potentially damaging crises and reputational challenges. This article seeks to explain the TAT's commitment to embedding resilience into its strategic planning. TAT's extensive implementation of effective risk and crisis management best practices has enabled Thailand's tourism market to recover rapidly from a range of challenges. TAT's commitment to resilience is enhanced by its extensive cooperation with both its private sector stakeholders and the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA), which is headquartered in Bangkok. The Thai tourism industry's commitment to risk and crisis management reflects the importance of tourism to Thailand's national reputation, image, and economy. TAT's close relationship with PATA and ASEAN Tourism, two transnational tourism associations with a strong commitment to destination resilience, has helped to benchmark Thailand's qualitative approach to tourism resilience. TAT demonstrates a clear appreciation that rapid recovery from crisis events and effective contingency management practice require a high level of collaboration with key stakeholders. Numerous private sector stakeholders with a vested interest in the success of Thai tourism represent all sectors of the tourism industry. They have readily contributed their resources and support to Thailand's marketing campaigns.

Full textAbstract:
With the development of the modern social economy, temple tourism has become a lucrative industry. Because of their distinct architecture, rituals, and history, temples have become an important part of the sustainable development of temple economies. Thailand, a tourism-rich country in Southeast Asia, has many Chinese temples, most of which have developed into well-known tourist attractions. However, little research has explored attraction factor categories of Thai-Chinese temples as cultural tourist attractions, and also the relationships among these factor categories. This knowledge is important for assessing and developing improvement strategies of Thai-Chinese temples for achieving a sustainable temple economy. Thus, this study aims to identify appropriate ways to identify the constituent attraction factor categories of Thai-Chinese temples as cultural tourist attractions and how they are prioritized, considering the complex interaction relationships among them. The research findings show that 12 main factor categories under the three dimensions, three attributive classifications with different priorities to which the 12 categories belong, and the complex interaction relationships among factor categories are identified. Combining the priorities on attributive classifications and the priorities on interaction relationships, the sustainable improvement strategies of Thai-Chinese temples are established. This paper extends previous research on Chinese temples, offers insights into the theoretical investigation of Thai-Chinese temples as tourist attractions, and provides decision makers with an integrated and practical way to establish priorities of multiple attraction factor categories, in order to make sustainable improvement strategies of Thai-Chinese temples under the consideration of rational allocation of resources.

This research aimed 1) to segment the target market of New-Age Elderly tourists, and 2) to define the data source that each group of New-Age Elderly tourists used for their trip planning by collecting data from 420 samples of Thai tourists aged between 60-80 years old in tourist attractions in cities. It was found from the findings that we can group New-Age Elderly tourists into five segments. Having analyzed the relationship between sources of tourism information and five segments of New-Age Elderly tourists the results can be summarized as follows. The first segment (‘Worried’) stressed making decisions and only felt confident after reading and having seen pictures. This group then stressed using tourism sources from leaflets or brochures. The second segment (‘Accepting aging’), saw it as a fact of life that no one can control aging and that it should be accepted. They stressed using friends and relatives as sources of tourism information. The third segment (‘Firmly with changes’) dared to face up to new things and considered life as an adventure. Plus, they sought out new and unseen tourism destinations that seemed exciting and wild so, they stressed using tourism data sources from tourism magazines and TV programs. The fourth segment (‘Young at heart’) were those with life satisfaction, who loved having fun and always felt young. They wanted to travel and stressed using data sources directly from tour agencies. The fifth segment (‘Consciousness’) were conscious in their actions and did not dwell on the past. This segment stressed using information sources from articles in travel magazines, newspapers, or journals. This study provides more understanding about the concept of the New-Age Elderly that makes a contribution to both research in the area of the New-Age Elderly and for practitioners in the tourism industry.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate and develop a framework of the performance evaluation of tourism supply chain management (SCM) for the case of Thailand. Design/methodology/approach The performance measurement of tourism SCM was based upon the eight dimensions of service performance, namely order process management (OPM), supplier relationship management (SRM), service performance management (SPM), capacity and resources management, customer relationship management, demand management (DM), information and technology management, tour finance supply chain. Data were collected from 195 samples of experts of each component of the supply chain to identify the weight pairwise and criteria on each tourism component. The study also adopted analytical hierarchy process (AHP) technique to rank the dimensions of service performance for searching the suitable performance measurement. Findings The results showed that there are both similarities and differences in each tier. Among the eight dimensions subject to this measurement, OPM, SPM and SRM are ranked as 1, 2 and 3, respectively, in tourism supply chain. Research limitations/implications One limitation should be considered. As the results of this performance measurement are drawn from sole perspectives of the tourism-business operators, these are probably different from those of the tourists. Originality/value The contribution of this study is another effective performance measurement which is expected to benefit the evaluation of tourism supply chain for Thai tourism industry.

Full textAbstract:
This article asks the question, “How do Western men who travel to Thailand to pay for sex with Thai women morally justify their actions?” In order to answer this, the study frames the question in terms of debates about “dirty work” and introduces the concept of “dirty customers” to analyze sex tourists and to highlight the potential stigma and moral taint involved in their engagement with sex workers. The research methodology involved content analysis of website discourse among Western men who visit Thailand for paid sex; examining their discussions and debates, and thereby identifying key themes and patterns in their exchanges. The study found that although sex work can arguably be categorized as “dirty work,” sex tourists resist such characterizations of sex work and of their role in it. The article thereby analyses how sex tourist discourse neutralizes external moralities of stigma and shame. It shows why neutralization is significant for understanding how sex tourism is sustained as an industry and how it is significant at the theoretical level for our understanding of “dirty work” and “dirty customers” as analytical concepts.

Full textAbstract:
The “Green Economy” concept is a tool that leads to the guideline to develop sustainable economy in parallel with social development, quality of life, and the balanced conservation of natural resources and the environment (Office of Agricultural Economics, 2013). The concept of economic development leading to sustainable development or Green Economy is a concept of business operation based on low carbon emission, reduction of energy consumption, promotion of efficient use of resources, leading to business growth, social development, reduced destruction of the environment and the ecosystem diversity.
Tourism is a form of service business that is crucial to Thailand’s economic and social development. It has high potential to accommodate free trade and demand of global market in accordance with the National Economic and Social Development Plans. Moreover, it generates employment and income from foreign currency. However, if the rapid growth of tourism lacks good management, the environment will be directly affected. For example, energy consumption in communication and transport sectors, trips, hotel rooms, as well as garbage and waste from tourism activities. Tourism industry consists of numerous types of business, including direct, indirect, and supporting businesses, service purchased by both Thai and foreign tourists, leading to spending flows that benefit many jobs, and social stability at communal, local, and national levels (Chantouch Wannathanom 2009, 101). It illustrates the role of community tourism in generating widespread employment and occupation such as local handicrafts, agricultural and natural resources-based products, to stimulate production and maximum use of the country’s resources. At present, the government has formulated clear policy to promote and support tourism with directly responsible agencies at regional, national, and particularly community levels. The agencies with important role in community tourism include provincial administrative organizations, sub-district administrative organizations or municipalities, and community enterprises. Moreover, local administrative organizations and especially community enterprises also have the authority, duty, and role to promote and manage tourism leading to the development of sustainable tourism. Therefore, the good management of tourism business should grow in parallel with efficient environmental management from all relevant sectors especially community tourism. The management starts from small units including people, community leaders, local administrative organizations, and community enterprises. It will succeed if all stakeholders possess appropriate knowledge, if tourism development is aligned with strategic plans on provincial development, development plans of local administrative organizations, and implementation plans derived from joint planning, cooperation, awareness and conscience of community, organizations in community, and community enterprises. The community enterprises supporting Thailand’s tourism activities are scattered in all regions in the form of grouping of local wisdom, community culture, raw materials, or various resources to increase value added of products and services to generate income to the community. The management of community network for sustainable tourism based on the Green Economy is to study potentials and limitations of Thailand’s tourist destinations, role of participation of community network from tourism management, analyze knowledge and impact from operation, as well as recommendations of the guideline to develop sustainable tourism based on the Green Economy using the base of main resource which is community network allowing one to know about the context of preparedness, potentials, and limitations of community to manage tourism. The research will result in community network with systematic management, network format, or guideline to connect the network of stakeholders, resulting in management of sustainable tourism, and community’s self-reliance. Tourism entrepreneurs, both local and non-local, can use the information to develop tourist destinations in line with national policy. It also benefits those involved in formulation of policy, plans, or products for economic, social, and environmental development by the community in sustainable tourist destinations.

Purpose This study aims to identify the factors influencing Chinese outbound tourists’ perceptions of safety in Thailand. A media coverage analysis compares the safety perceptions of visitors and non-visitors. Design/methodology/approach A mixed-methods approach was adopted. Based on a content analysis of 204 news items related to safety incidents in Thailand, this paper divides the factors of safety perception into four dimensions. The quantitative data were gathered by self-administered questionnaires from 370 visitors who have previously visited Thailand and 407 potential visitors yet to visit Thailand. Findings The results demonstrated significant differences in the safety perceptions of visitors and non-visitors, indicating non-visitors’ fear of uncertainty and intolerance of the exotic. The study also confirmed social-demographic characteristics influence destination safety perceptions. For non-visitors, safety issues tend to have a negative influence on future visit intention, but those with previous travel experience have less concerns. Research limitations/implications The findings provide valuable insights to industry practice. More publicity campaigns within the Chinese media may reduce the spillover effects of crisis events and correct the potentially inaccurate images of disease and terrorism risk. Thai government is suggested to develop the Chinese inbound market, improve the quality of tourism infrastructure and standardisation and efficiency of tourism services. Originality/value The media plays a significant role in destination image, tourist decision-making and safety measures imposed by governments. This study identified the factors influencing Chinese outbound tourists’ perceptions of safety in Thailand through an analysis of media coverage. The study provides a better understanding of the differences in safety perceptions between visitors and non-visitors to Thailand. The segmentation of visitors and non-visitors also may help destination managers to cater to differing expectations of safety.

Full textAbstract:
This paper examines infrastructure considerations and the significance of co-creation and co-branding within the Culinary Transnational Gastronomic Tourism Industry. Gastronomic Tourists crave hands-on immersion into regional food cultures. For the gastro-tourist, where experiencing-the-experience is paramount - the easier it is to find and access safe, memorable food-related activities - the quicker tourism on-the-whole will benefit. The industry has recognized the growing potential for this market niche, yet what’s currently available through traditional tourist venues seems lacking. This paper discusses impact factors for both tourists and hosts during three stages of touring – Communication & Planning; Logistics; The Experience. It concludes by proposing that only when the Tourist Industry emulates early culinary tourist innovators; co-creates, co-brands, and logistically supports rich, authentic, memorable gastro-experiences on a wider scale; and embraces transnational practices, will the true economic and social impact of this target market of lucrative spenders begin to be realized across the globe.

‘Green tourism’ is defined as tourism that enhances local cultural elements, which are operating under the control of local communities, providing employment and maintaining economic benefits within the local communities. In fact, many times the above definition is poorly utilized, since there are times when the economic benefits dim from local communities. Tourism industry uses the term as a message to tourists on energy saving, avoiding coastal pollution and so on. Sometimes, the same tourist businesses are accused of using the term or labelling ‘green’ primarily for marketing purposes. Although it is a fact that tourism industry is starting to respond to the changing values of tourists regarding environmental issues, however, the purpose of this research is to infer if there is a future for sustainable tourism development concerning the enterprises that provide sport tourism in Greece.

Full textAbstract:
The world has entered the industrial era 5.0, when all aspects of human life are controlled by information technology. Society is changing and moving fast with technology to achieve a more meaningful life. The tourism industry has also developed following the development of industry 5.0 which is marked by the full digitization of the tourism sector. The way tourists travel is changing. The tourists will start their journey by looking for or seeing a variety of information (look), then proceed with the second step, namely ordering a tour package that is of interest (book) and the next part is the final stage, which is paying online (pay). Communication technology has changed the behavior of the tourism market towards digital. Tourist behavior is increasingly mobile, personal and interactive. Tourists can easily get tourist information with the availability and easy access to communication networks. Media with various tourist information have an influence on tourists to travel. In addition to communication media, the attractiveness of tourist destinations also affects tourists' choice of visiting tourist destinations. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of media exposure and the attractiveness of tourist destinations on tourism interest. The research was conducted in the Betawi Cultural Tourism Area Setu Babakan, South Jakarta, Indonesia.

The interconnection of tourism and transport activity is present at all levels of development of society and economy. The occurrence of rail, then car and plane has led to the transformation of tourism from an individual into a mass phenomenon. The general economic expansion, the rise in living standards, and especially the rapid development of tourism in the 20th century, have had a significant impact on the overall transport system, and especially on change of means of transport. The sudden development of motor vehicles is the beginning of the The Second Transportation Revolution, and at the same time other revolutions in tourism. Tourism is the sector that records the highest growth in the world economy. The aim of this paper is to examine the analysis of interconnections and relations between transport and tourism industry. Tourism and transport are interconnected phenomena, where all major epochs in the development of transport becoming the turning points in the development of tourism. Transportation is an integral part of the tourism industry since it connects tourists with various tourist attractions. In most countries, the development of tourism depends on the development of the transportation system. The promotion and development of tourism depends directly on the development of the transport system (road, maritime, air, rail, river and PTT traffic), maintenance and construction of existing roads, construction and maintenance of railways and air traffic, as well as the construction of local airports and the improvement of flight operations. Serbia has relatively favorable natural and material conditions for the development of various types of traffic in accordance with the requirements of domestic and foreign tourists. Road traffic has a dual importance for tourism. First of all, it allows tourists to travel on vacation with certain advantages that consist of being able to go directly from home, at will, to choose the time of departure, the route and speed they will travel, and the choice of travel companions depends on them. One of the main reasons that led to massive use of cars for tourist purposes is their economic efficiency. The connection between tourism and transport is also evident in the fact that many roads that serve primarily for tourism are built. Air traffic has opened new destinations and tourist forms, such as long distance trips.

Cultural tourism is recognised as one of the broader sectors of the tourism industry, embracing an extensive range of tourist interests. Italy is a remarkable tourist destination due to its cultural appeal in tangible and intangible heritage as well as its cultural resources connected to food and gastronomy, and it is of special interest since the COVID-19 pandemic was declared in March 2020. This study sought to analyse the perceptions of diverse significant actors regarding culture and tourism during the COVID-19 pandemic in Langhe, Monferrato and Roero, an area of southern Piedmont in north-western Italy. As part of a larger collaborative international project addressing the coronavirus situation, the research examined residents, tourists and tourism-related professionals to investigate their perceptions of culture and tourism. Data were collected through a survey employing three distinct questionnaires for the three target groups of residents, tourists and entrepreneurs and cultural bodies. The data analysis reveals that residents embraced a static representation of the local cultural tourism’s appeal and heritage, while tourists were motivated mainly by gastronomic and wine experiences. The perception of the coronavirus among the three groups of interviewees reflects a general reduction in almost all cultural activities and travel possibilities.

The coronavirus pandemic, which has engulfed almost all countries and caused a global crisis, has dealt a significant blow to many sectors of the economy, including the tourism sector. The tourism industry found itself in uncertain working conditions, which caused significant changes in the functioning of tourism entities. The article analyzes the current status and identifies tendencies in the development of the world tourism market in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as systematizes the measures implemented by Ukraine and other countries to stimulate and support the tourism industry. The contribution of tourism to the world GDP by the countries that are the most popular among tourists is analyzed. The percentage change in international tourist arrivals by region in 2020 and dynamics in destinations that were the most popular among tourists around the world in 2018–2020 is considered. It is identified that as a result of the pandemic, the indicators of tourism activities have decreased significantly, the tourism industry has suffered losses and there has been a significant reduction in tourist flows. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a significant decrease in the number of international tourist arrivals in all countries. In addition, to achieve its goal, the article systematizes the measures to improve the tourism climate of countries, stimulation and support of the tourism industry both during the COVID-19 pandemic and the post-pandemic period. It is identified that among the measures to stimulate and support the tourism industry in most countries, the main focus is placed on domestic tourism, which is less dependent on the global coronavirus crisis and quarantine measures, as well as the introduction of online forms and the wider use of marketing and digital tools in the provision of tourist services. According to the results of the study, the authors substantiate the need to support the enterprises of the tourism industry and stimulate the demand for domestic tourism on the part of Ukrainian government.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate Thai stakeholders’ perceptions of developing a destination for international retirement migration (IRM). Increasingly, residents of developed nations such as Japan who retire from work are choosing to live in Thailand or other less-developed countries. Design/methodology/approach Qualitative approach was used, and data were collected through focus groups and in-depth interviews in Chiang Mai and Bangkok. Content analysis technique was used to analyze data after completing the interviews of 35 industry participants. Findings It was found from the participants that considerable new real estate development and services specifically for these retirees has been created in recent years, but that there is a lack of stakeholder collaboration in catering to this market. Moreover, local resident knowledge of the retirees’ culture and language is lacking, along with a need for policy and planning support from government. Research limitations/implications A limitation of this study is that it explored only the perception of business stakeholders involved with Japanese IRM, a group of importance to the Thai Government due to their increasing numbers. Further study could look at local community attitudes toward IRM and how a community adapts to this new phenomenon. Practical implications This study provides guidelines for stakeholders, government and local communities. Especially, the role of government is to provide support with clear information about the visa process and legal documents. Originality/value This study contributes to the body of knowledge of destination development strategy for a specific international retirement tourist group.

Full textAbstract:
The tourist industry is developing at a fast pace, generally accepting and serving tourists, creating and offering a tourist product. It includes different sectors that cooperate, perform their specific functions (restaurant, hotel, event organization, etc.) aimed at one goal - demonstrating hospitality. Hospitality is an activity that, thanks to progress and time, has become a powerful industry that employs millions of professionals, creating the best for service users (tourists). The hotel industry includes different areas of human activity - tourism, recreation, entertainment, hotel and restaurant services, catering, sightseeing, organizing exhibitions and conducting various scientific conferences. This means meeting the needs of the guests and satisfying their needs, courtesy, guaranteeing the security and comfort during their stay. Hospitality is a fact when meeting the guest's needs with the attitude of the hosts, they go hand in hand. In this report I will try to justify hospitality as the most important consumer property of the tourist product to talk about turning it into an industry. The popularity of tourist accommodation sites is determined by many factors, but above all by the qualifications of the staff. Consequently, the phrase: "Personnel decides everything" is valid in the tourism business. Thus, the hospitality industry is a complex sphere of activity for employees who satisfy the wishes of tourists. The client is the most important factor in tourism activity and should be subject to excellent service. In the process of communication between tourists of different nationalities and staff, a number of business etiquette rules should be considered to save moments of inconvenience and misunderstanding. It is good to know the peculiarities of greeting, posture, distance, gestures in order to communicate effectively and avoid ambiguity in contact with foreigners. Good manners are those that will build an atmosphere of cooperation and understanding, not of hostility and conflict. The skills that make contacts with partners and clients can affect the tone and the results of the whole conversation, and hence the future relationships and their opinions about the company. Rule: The way you meet someone the first time can determine if there will be a second time as a customer.

Leiper’s model of tourism system was used in this article as a tool to review the system and elements of local tourism. Leiper’s model was widely known for its simplicity, this model focuses on the elements of tourist generating region, transit region, and tourist destination region. The data used were secondary datas obtained from the Tourism Board of Badung Regency, which then grouped into tourism elements, comprising tourists, tourist generating region, transit region, tourist destination region, and tourism industry. The comparative review conducted in this research was aimed at comparing the ideal conditions to actual conditions in Badung Regency. Such review, which is decsribed descriptively, generates findings which include how Leiper’s model views spatial and geographical side only; how elements of tourism industry become important sub-elements that should be incorporated in tourist generating region (except for tourist attractions) as well as tourist destination region; and how Leiper’s tourism system is considered as being too simple and general to depict the complexity of tourism elements in Badung Regency.

This paper considers the significant changes that have occurred in the tourist space of the Altai-Sayan mountainous region. In fact, it is a cross-border area and an important tourist region in the Russian Federation. It should be mentioned that the structure of the tourist space can be studied properly while using the model of the territorial tourist system. The authors examine the common features of tourism systems in the mountainous environments of the region. The study examines the tourist infrastructure, organizers of tourist services, local people’s attitudes and tourists’ preferences in the tourist industry. Studies in the field of tourist space enable to distinguish the types of tourism and their distribution in the Altai-Sayan region. It is worthwhile noting that health tourism has become one of the fastest growing subfields in the tourist industry of this region. The tourist development projects such as the economic zone of “Turquoise Katun” and shore development projects of warm lakes have also encouraged this process. Moreover, ecotourism development is of great importance to this area because there are many protected natural areas and some of them are under UNESCO protection. Also, tourism development outlooks are associated with cross-border cooperation and sustainable economic development of the region.

The results of tourist streams of Ukraine during 2000-2018 are presented, problems and prospects of development of tourism industry in Ukraine are analyzed (namely, which regions are the most tourist attractiveness for foreign tourists). The methodology of the study was to use a combination of methods: dialectical, analytical, method of comparison. The scientific novelty of the results obtained is the comprehensive coverage of the results of the author’s quantitative and qualitative analysis of the problems of the tourism industry development in Ukraine by the end of 2018. Conclusions. In general, places that are attractive for tourists are those places that have the following three components: developed infrastructure, historical sites, regional attractiveness. However, the main problem of the tourist industry today remain: improper quality of services, lack of clear control, insufficient promotion of domestic Ukrainian tourist recreation. In Western Ukraine, there are no conditions for the emergence of inexpensive hotels. Currently, there are very few tourist information centers on the territory of Ukraine, where it would be possible to find out about interesting places of this or that region. There is also a language barrier that is currently trying to be overcome to the maximum in Ukraine.

Tourists as the main actor in tourism industry play an essential role in achieving sustainable tourism. Tourist preference for physical environment and infrastructure development in the tourism destination can affect the achievement of sustainable tourism. This study aims at measuring tourist preference for sustainable tourism management and calculating the economic value of the tourism destination. For this purpose, the Pok Tunggal Beach tourist area in Yogyakarta Indonesia was considered as a case study site. A survey with 200 local tourists was conducted using the Choice Modeling (CM) technique to measure their preferences related to the development on the beach. This study found that tourists prefer to pay more fees to get better and more sustainable facilities. The economic value of the Pok Tunggal Beach is the amount of IDR 1,038,600 (USD 73.66). The main attributes in the destination, tourist's education, environmental awareness, and recreation costs are statistically significant in determining tourists' preferences. This study recommends Pok Tunggal beach quality improvement by considering the tourist preferences. This study also suggests a price for the entrance fees, not only to increase revenue but also to monitor and control the number of tourists who visit the beach.

Transformations of the tourism market structure in a pandemic necessitate a study of the extent to which EU countries can provide their citizens with tourism products to minimize the negative impact of the pandemic and, consequently, the negative impact on economic development. This article aimed to develop recommendations for minimizing the negative impact of reducing regional tourism on economic development through the support of domestic tourism. This research uses a quantitative methodology based on indicators of growth of tourist external and internal flows in the regions, the growth rate of economic regions of the EU for 2015-2019. The following countries were selected for correlation analysis: Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Germany, Estonia, Greece, Spain, and Italy. The analysis of the impact of regional tourism on economic development in the EU for 2015-2019 indicates the need to develop regional strategies for smart specializations of the tourism industry based on the most attractive industries for tourists. It is determined that within the EU, economic development is less dependent on developed tourist regions due to potentially low tourist costs, as a result - short-term revenues from the industry. It is proved that regions with a high level of tourist flows can provide economic development by increasing the innovation of industries related to tourism, as such industries attract tourists. In a pandemic, businesses need to focus on promoting regional products and shift the focus to domestic consumption within the country. The theoretical value of this study is that regional tourism affects the economic development of the EU countries through the total costs of tourists, the volume of which in the short term has a negligible impact on the region's development. At the same time, the income of the tourism industry as a contribution to the economy is overestimated in the scientific literature.

The population of the planet Earth is affected by various restrictions in various spheres of life, and especially in the field of health. Over the past few decades, we have encountered several types of infectious diseases that affect both animals and humans, with the disease spreading over a large area. As a result of pandemics, all spheres of life suffer significant losses, but in our opinion, the tourism sector is one of those that suffers large-scale losses. This year, the tourism sector has also been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic. Restrictions on the movement of citizens, a ban on the opening of certain tourist facilities have negatively affected all enterprises involved in the organization of the tourism business. 96 % of worldwide tourist destinations are restricted. The three main problems that the tourism industry faces in a pandemic are: the problem of liquidity of tourism enterprises, the uncertainty of consumers of tourism services, the social consequences of forced restrictive measures. The author analyzes the measures taken by some countries to support the tourism sector. Gov-ernments in leading European countries have set up guarantee funds to protect tourism businesses. The article aim is to make the recommendations for the development of a set of measures to ensure the sustainability of the tourism sector in the context of increasing quarantine restrictions in Ukraine. Measures have been proposed to mitigate the exit of the tourism industry from the coronavirus crisis, including the provision of affordable credit lines for businesses, and the deferral of debt and tax liabilities. In addition, ensuring the availability and reliability of information on travel restrictions and can-cellations; creation of a mechanism to guarantee the loss of tourists from the cancellation of the trip; de-velopment of domestic tourism.
