Abstract:

Tourism has already become major economic contributor since 2014. Many people start to get the experience and explore the world. Base on WTO prediction, there are about 1.6 billion tourists over the world, and most of them are in Asia and Pasific. By 2020 these people could generate about 2 trilion USD income in tourism sector. Indonesia has known as one of biggest archipelago island in the world and has a lot of tourist spot over their island. One of interesting spot in West Java is Taman Nasional Gunung Gede Pangrango in Bogor. This place has been well known as agri-tourism spot for long time ago. Unfortunately in order to increase the competitiveness of this tourist spot, they should implement risk management in their daily operational. We found that the management hasn’t implement any risk management in their daily operational. So we would like to conduct some observation and hope can mapping potential risk of this place. Purpose of this research is aim to mapping risk and conducted quadran analysis in order to achieved good risk management of Taman Nasional Gunung Gede Pangrango. And the this tourist spot can be one of unique tourist spot that can support Indonesia Tourism in 2020.

Abstract:

Information Technology is expected to be a solution in tourism, especially in Belitung Island. The purpose of this study is to make it easier for tourists visiting Belitung Island to easily determine the tourist locations to be visited by showing the closest tourist locations and also virtual tours of each of the available tourist attractions. The method used in this research is the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) method. This research was made so that tourists can easily determine the destination of tourist attractions based on the distance from the tourist location and virtual tours that utilize 360-degree images on the android application. At the search stage, the application will ask for gps access to see the starting point of the tourist. Then the system will automatically provide a list of tourist attractions sorted by the closest distance to tourists. Then after the tourist chooses a tourist spot, the application will bring up the details of the tourist spot and give the option to bring up a virtual tour of the tourist spot. With the addition of virtual tours and the Haversine formula for determining distances through the longitude and latitude of a location, it has proven to be effective in providing the detailed information travelers need.

Abstract:

At present, it is urgent to solve the problem of scenic area tourism environmental capacity. This paper analyzes the causes of congestion and overload in scenic spots and then points out that the methods to solve the problem are capacity restriction and flow control. This paper first calculates the spatial capacity of various tourism resources in a scenic spot by using mathematical model and then studies the intelligent spatial management model of tourist flow in the scenic spot based on the Internet of Things technology. Based on the Internet of Things technology, the spatial capacity control platform of tourist resources in scenic spots built in this paper can realize the structure analysis of peak forest of tourist flow in scenic spots and the fractal and fractal dimension analysis of tourist flow and determine the spatial and temporal threshold of tourist flow control in tourist destinations. Through capacity restriction and flow regulation, tourists can be scientifically channelled and distributed, which can greatly reduce congestion and overload, enhance tourist experience, and improve tourist satisfaction, so as to promote the sustainable development of the scenic spot.

The perception of tourists attraction was very important to be learnt to provide some information for manager to object tourism attraction. The purpose of this research was to analyzed the perceptions of tourists to the objects tourism attractions, accommodation, infrastructure, facilities and services at the Botanical Garden of Liwa. The method used was a questionnaire. The results of this research showed that Liwa Botanical garden has 5 objects tourism attractions that were Ornamental Garden, Fruit Garden, Araceae Garden, Aren Garden and Photo Spot . Araceae Garden, and Aren Garden had the lowest score based on the tourist perception. The highest tourist perception value is the Photo Spot; while the tourist perception of Araceae Park and Aren Park has the lowest value that is classified as not good because the object has not been opened for tourists. Perception of infrastructure was higher than accommodation, facilities and service. Development need to be carried especially in tourist lodgings, objects tourism attraction, the parking area and promotion to introduce Liwa Botanical Garden to the tourists.

Abstract:

The tourism sector is one of the country's most significant sources of income, especially in Indonesia. This is inseparable from many visitors or foreign tourists who come to Indonesia. Bandung is a tourist destination that is famous for its natural beauty and traditional culture, one example is in Desa Alamendah which has several tourist destinations, namely agro-tourism, nature tourism, and cultural tourism. However, access that can be passed from every tourist spot in Desa Alamendah can only be given on foot or by bicycle. Responding to this matter, bicycle facilities as a means of rotation are needed to access tourist attractions in Desa Alamendah. Based on these problems, this study aims to create a recommendation system for tourist attractions and bicycle rentals using an application in Desa Alamendah, Bandung. Using the Genetic Algorithm, an algorithm that can solve multi-objective problems can be applied to a tourist spot recommendation system in Desa Alamendah. In this system, the Genetic Algorithm is also used to determine fares based on the total distance traveled, so that bicycle rentals are more efficient. The study combines Google Maps as an appropriate route selection based on the recommendation of tourist destination points that tourists can visit using Genetic Algorithms, so that bicycle rentals are more efficient. This is study combines Google Maps as an appropriate route selection based on the recommendation of tourist destination points that tourists can visit using Genetic Algorithms. So that bicycle rentals are more efficient. The study combines Google Maps as an appropriate route selection based on the recommendation of tourist destination points that tourists can visit using Genetic Algorithms. Based on the results of tests that have been carried out in the process of forming tourist attractions recommendations with a Genetic Algorithm that using mutation probability 1.0 and Crossover Probability 0.6, can produce a Mobile Application with a Genetic Algorithm as a tourist spot recommendation system in Desa Alamendah. In addition, it also can provide recommendations, namely displaying tourist points, route using Google Maps. The rental fee is based on the total distance traveled.

Abstract:

This study presents a low-carbon decision-making algorithm for water-spot tourists, based on the k-NN spatial-accessibility optimization model, to address the problems of water-spot tourism spatial decision-making. The attributes of scenic water spots previously visited by the tourists were knowledge-mined, to ascertain the tourists’ interest-tendencies. A scenic water-spot classification model was constructed, to classify scenic water spots in tourist cities. Then, a scenic water spot spatial-accessibility optimization model was set up, to sequence the scenic spots. Based on the tourists’ interest-tendencies, and the spatial accessibility of the scenic water spots, a spatial-decision algorithm was constructed for water-spot tourists, to make decisions for the tourists, in regard to the tour routes with optimal accessibility and lowest cost. An experiment was performed, in which the tourist city of Leshan was chosen as the research object. The scenic water spots were classified, and the spatial accessibility for each scenic spot was calculated; then, the optimal tour routes with optimal spatial accessibility and the lowest cost were output. The experiment verified that the tour routes that were output via the proposed algorithm had stronger spatial accessibility, and cost less than the sub-optimal ones, and were thus more environmentally friendly.

Abstract:

Eastern Indonesia has enormous marine tourism potential. The main problem is accessibility. Inside the region also poses the same problem, where some local marine tourism spots can be considered accessible. In addition, the lack of infrastructure on marine tourism spots may actually have great impact on safety of tourist, which can all together affect the tourist positive experience. Based on this current condition, this study aimed to measure the impact of accessibility and safety through brand perception to tourism experience. This Study conducted In Kei Islands, which home of up and coming marine tourism spots in the country. This study used path analysis with Smart-PLS, questionnaire is used for data collection with total 120 samples. The result indicated that safety and accessibility have positive and significant effect on tourist experience, what is more, accessibility have positive and significant effect on marine tourism spot’ brand perception. This study clearly indicated that access to marine tourism spot can have a bigger impact to visitor positive experience and the brand image perception of the tourism spot, therefore tourism management with government to optimize the transportation and information related to make it easier for local, domestic and foreign tourists to visit the region.

Abstract:

Traveling is a necessary thing in everyday life, traveling on a tour can eliminate boredom and can remember thoughts of everyday problems. A good tourist spot will greatly affect the desire to make a visit on that tour, and a good tourist spot will be interesting to make a repeat visit on that tour. The research aims to see the effect of service influence, tourism image, tourist attraction and promotion partially and simultaneously on the interests of visiting tourists. This research uses quantitative methods. Sampling combines accidental sampling and purposive sampling, involving 97 tourists as respondents. Data processing using multiple linear regression with IMB 22 statistical tools: The results of data analysis show that service quality (X1) does not have a significant effect on the interest of returning tourists with a significant value of 0.394> 0.05. The results of data analysis show that the tourism image ( X2) has a significant effect on the interest of returning tourists with a significant value of 0.000 <0.05. The results of data analysis show that tourist attraction (X3) has a significant effect on the interest of returning tourists with a significant value of 0.031 <0.05, the results of data analysis show that Promotion (X4) has a significant effect on the interest of returning tourists with a significant value of 0.022 <0.05 on testing service quality, tourism image, tourist attraction, promotion is able to influence the interest of returning visits simultaneously where the significance value is 0.000 <0.05.

Abstract:

This research paper studies the domestic tourism destination boycott of Murree, the most popular tourist spot in Pakistan. Murree, a hill spot in the footsteps of the Himalayan mountain ranges, attracts millions of tourists from all over Pakistan every year due to its natural scenery and easy accessibility. However, weak regulation and unmanageable demand have made the local hospitality industry quixotic, prompting affiliated businesses in Murree to exploit tourists. Subsequently, the #BoycottMurree campaign was launched on social media at the beginning of 2018; this campaign gained quickly momentum, and Murree reported declines in business for the first time during the summer season of 2018. Using a netnographic case study approach of the #BoycottMurree campaign it found that the communication revolved around instrumental boycott motives and non-instrumental boycott motives. Moreover, the tourist ethnocentrism theme naturally emerged from the data, advocating anti-boycott. Overall, the results theoretically inform the literature by extrapolating tourist boycott notions in terms of domestic tourism and pointing out the ways in which domestic tourism boycotts may be different from international tourism boycotts. The results also guide domestic tourism organizations and businesses about the importance of developing competing destinations.

Abstract:

Observing visitors' behaviour in places presenting heritage and reviewing the tourism literature dealing with 'heritage tourism', led to this research that aimed to clarify the core of heritage tourism. In this research the common approach that tourists visiting heritage sites is called "heritage tourism", was challenged. The relationship between four groups of variables (1- the tourists' personal characteristics, 2- the tourists' awareness of the history of the site, 3- the tourists' perception of the site in relation to their own heritage and, 4 - the site attributes) and the tourists' visitation patterns (before the visit, during the visit, and after the visit) as the outcome variables was investigated. The actual study was conducted in Israel, due to its attributes as an area containing a variety of heritage sites in a relatively short distance, which relate to different tourists on different grounds, mainly looking at two sites: the Wailing Wall and Massada. The results indicate that the relationship between the tourists and the heritage site attributes is at the core of this social phenomenon. Specifically it was revealed that the tourists' perception of the site as part of their own heritage is associated with the tourists' visitations patterns at the site. The understanding of this relationship is useful for the study of heritage related behaviour including heritage tourism and has also potential contribution for the management of sites presenting historic and heritage artefacts. The approach used in this research could also be useful for challenging the existence of other sub-groups of tourism, and for the understanding of tourism as a general phenomenon. The study also suggests new approaches for the understanding of social behaviour in the context of heritage-related behaviour, which could be useful for other social research disciplines.

Abstract:

Denna studie utförs av två studenter för deras examensarbete i Turismvetenskap vid Södertörns högskola, Sverige. I studien undersöks huruvida de påvisade karaktäristiska dragen för en sportturist stämmer överens med verkligheten. I studien undersöks även vilka faktorer fotbollsturisten anser viktiga för uppnå en tillfredsställande upplevelse under en fotbollsresa. Ämnet är viktigt att belysa för främjandet av turismnäringen när det kommer till resor för sportsliga syften. Genom identifieringen av specifika element inom fenomenet ökar kunskapen och utvecklingen av sportturism. Metoden som användes för att undersöka problematiken kring fenomenet i denna studie utfördes av intervjuer med tjugo potentiella respondenter. Dessa respondenten utgörs av individer som reste till Lissabon, Portugal för att delta i kvartsfinalen i Champions League mellan SL Benfica och FC Bayern München den 13 april 2016. Intervjuerna tog plats i München, Tyskland och Lissabon, Portugal. Respondenterna gav värdefullt bidrag genom åsikter, känslor och erfarenheter från tidigare sportresor. Det material som samlades in av intervjuerna sammanfogades sedan med tidigare forskning och teorier inom forskningsområde för att på så sätt undersöka och identifiera fenomenet. Resultatet i studien visar att trots de karaktäristiska dragen för en sportturist som påvisats av bland annat teoretikerna Harrison-Hill & Chalip (2005) stämmer inte överens eller stämmer delvis med respondenterna i studien. Trots detta går det att uppnå en tillfredsställande upplevelse genom att de faktorer som sportturisten anser vara viktiga för att uppnå en tillfredställande upplevelse. Faktorer som identifierats som tillfredsställande gentemot respondenternas behov och begär i denna studie, utgörs av bland annat: bra väder, bra sittplatser, en bra match, att laget vinner, säkerhet, transport, bra sällskap, att allting går smidigt, en bra resa, bra priser, bra atmosfär, att det ska finnas öl, att vara på plats i tid, att stå på rätt sida av planen tillsammans med andra supportar, att det inte förekommer brister i kommunikationen samt bra boende/ hotell och restauranger. På så sätt uppnås positiva, tillfredsställande och minnesrika resor. De karaktäristiska dragen som påståtts identifiera en sportturist, stämde delvis överens med verkligheten. Verkligheten i studien baseras på respondenternas svar vid intervjutillfällena. De karaktäristiska dragen (baserade på teorierna i studien och de som uppkommit genom respondenternas svar under intervjuerna) av en sportturist och faktorerna för att uppnå en tillfredsställande upplevelse går hand i hand. En tillfredsställande upplevelse för sportturisten utgörs till stor del av de specifika faktorer som identifierats i studien som påverkar fotbollsmatchen som turisten reser dit för.
This is a study made by two students for their bachelor theses in Tourism at Södertörn University, Sweden. The study investigates weather the theoretical characteristic features of a sport tourist is inconsistent with reality. The study also investigates factors that sport tourist consider important during a football trip to achieve a satisfying experience. By identifying specific element of the phenomenon increase knowledge and development of sport tourism. The method chosen for the study was qualitative interviews which where performed with twenty respondents, each respondent travel to Lisbon, Portugal to attend the quarter- finals of Champions League between SL Benfica and FC Bayer München, 13 April 2016. The interview material was interpreted and later merges with previous research and theories in order to investigate and identify the phenomenon. The result of the study showed that the theoretical and previous research that have been presented on characteristic features of a sport tourist do not or partly match the respondents in this study. This study also showed that factors that sport tourist consider important as e.g. good seats, security, transport, good company, good atmosphere, other supporters and supporting their favourite football team, are the factors that contribute and makes a satisfying, memorable and positive experience trip.

Abstract:

Koreans are increasingly participating in overseas golf holidays in the Asia Pacific region and this trend is expected to continue. The popularity of golf holidays has been linked to the growing demands of special interest tourism and sport tourism where tourists seek to satisfy specific travel needs and wants to meet their travel motivations. Research into travel motivation using the concept of the push and pull framework is therefore a focus of study in tourism research. To date, little or no research has examined travel motivation and tourist typology using the push and pull framework in the markets of special interest tourism, sport tourism, or golf tourism. This thesis fills the gap in the literature and contributes to knowledge of tourist motivation and typology. The aims of the research were therefore three-fold: to identify the push and pull factors of golf travel motivation, to classify heterogeneous golf tourists into homogeneous groups, and to profile the clusters with respect to socio-demographics, golf related behaviour and travel characteristics, destination attributes, and destination preferences. This was achieved by collecting empirical data on Korean golf tourists travelling in the Asia Pacific region. The methodology comprised both qualitative research based on semi-structured interviews and quantitative research based on self-completed questionnaires. A principal component factor analysis was employed to identify five push based socio-psychological motivations and seven pull based destination attributes. A cluster analysis was then conducted to classify golfers into three different clusters, namely, Golf-intensive Golfers, Multi-motivated Golfers, and Companion Golfers. The golf clusters were then profiled based on the findings in respect to socio-demographics, golf related behaviour and travel characteristics, destination attributes, and destination preferences. A cross tabulation with chi-square tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to test the hypotheses of this thesis. Results revealed that golf tourists were not homogeneous in their push based socio-psychological travel motivations. Their profiles are theoretically and statistically feasible because the research tested hypotheses indicate that each cluster had both similarities and differences in socio-demographics, golf related behaviour and travel characteristics, destination attributes, and destination preferences. This suggests that marketing strategies should target both the different and similar aspects of golf travel behaviour. The research is of benefit not only to academics and practitioners in the study of travel motivations and tourist typology in the field of special interest tourism, sport tourism, and, in particular, golf tourism, but also to tourism marketers and tour operators in the development, promotion and packaging of golf holiday products.

Abstract:

The thesis presents the results of a critical investigation of the work and role of 'tourism associations' (TAs) as part of the tourism development system at the local scale in England and Wales. Local tourism development groups existed for a century or more before recent notions of community involvement in visitor industry initiatives came to prominence as part of the debate about 'green' tourism, and the study represents the first in-depth investigation of these groups, aimed at offering some guidance for the community tourism organisations advocated by several tourism authors. Guided by systems analysis methodology, the study presents original data on the nature and role of TM and develops theoretical consideration of such groups. Based upon these contributions to understanding, a critical assessment of the potential contribution of TM towards the development of small-scale local visitor industries as part of the local economies in qualitative terms is made. A review of relevant literature establishes that government policy has sought to develop tourism as a component of local economies in urban and rural areas. The sparse literature on tourism associations generally ascribes them lower-order publicity roles rather than the developmental functions that they could perhaps more usefully fulfil. Visitors represent a major economic opportunity for local communities, and economic multiplier studies show that local economies could benefit from becoming more visitor-oriented. However, relatively few areas benefit from conventional tourism development initiatives, particularly in the countryside, and voluntary effort may be necessary for communities to capitalise upon the visitor market. A postal questionnaire survey of a large sample of tourism associations in England and Wales established that these groups exist as a response to a perception of need for such organisations. During the 1970s and '80s there was a surge in the formation rate of TM. They were found to vary in many respects but shared common characteristics, and were classified into four basic types. While most members were businesses, many had representatives from the public sector and other organisations in membership. They undertook a broad range of useful activities, and certain public sector bodies provide financial assistance for aspects of their work. Some operated mainly as trade associations, but there are grounds for regarding all as community tourism groups to some degree. Measures of sophistication based upon the survey data and analyses are proposed, but the level of sophistication appropriate for any individual group depends upon local circumstances. An interview-based case study of four TAs working in rural Herefordshire reflected and validated many of the questionnaire survey conclusions. Each group had different approaches and priorities, particularly regarding the relative balance struck between promotion and development of the south Herefordshire visitor industry. They worked alongside tourism-oriented public sector bodies to varying degrees, and some received financial assistance for certain activities. While quantification of the effects that the TAs had on the visitor industry proved impossible, interviewees' opinions indicated that the work of the groups was valuable and that, without them, the contribution of the visitor industry to the local economy would be reduced. Analysis of the data collection stages showed that the goals of tourism associations are essentially the same as those of the more formal elements of the tourism development system, with marketing as a key focus. The work of TM can produce positive economic benefits for local economies in urban, coastal and rural locations. Recommendations for best practice are made for the associations and their roles, and the public sector is urged to help establish and help support TM. Conclusions drawn are that tourism associations have a valuable developmental role to play alongside their publicity function, and that the broad-membership association type is probably more appropriate for visitor industry development in lesser-known areas than sectoral types.

Abstract:

Sport events and attractions which encourage both participants and spectators are seen as significant contributors to the tourism economy (Delpy, 1998; Glyptis, 1991; Standeven & DeKnop, 1999). Further, Gratton and Taylor (2000) note that sport related travel accounts for 7% of total expenditure on sport. To date, the main focus of event sport tourism research has been on the economic impact of large-scale sport events (Burgan & Mules, 1992; Crompton, 1995; Mules & Faulkner, 1996; Walo, Bull, & Breen, 1996). However, Higham (1999) posits that smaller scale events such as regular season games may be of greater benefit to the host community as these events are hosted within existing infrastructure and therefore limit the need for public expenditure. However, fans who travel to regular season competition are a market segment that has been largely ignored by both sport and tourism marketers. Sport marketers have focused on home game attendance, media viewership and product purchases, while tourism marketers have focused on leveraging the destination. Anecdotal evidence suggests that fans who travel organise a substantial proportion of their discretionary time and income around this activity. Recent research by Gibson, Willming and Holdnak (2002, 2003) has begun to understand the behaviours of sport fans who travel to home games. This study seeks to understand the behaviours and experiences of those who travel to attend away games. In particular the study asks: What motivates fans to travel to follow professional sport teams, what experiences fans have and seek during the travel, and what place does travelling to follow a sport team have in the overall consumption behaviour of sport fans. This study examined the motives and experiences of six fan groups travelling interstate to follow their Australian Football League (AFL) team in the 2001 season. As the behaviours and experiences of those who travel to follow sport teams have not previously been explored, exploratory analysis using an iterative process of constant comparison between data colleted from the research setting and the existent literature. Using this method the researcher was able to describe the social world under investigation without preconceived hypotheses. The researcher travelled interstate with each fan group, and collected data via participant observation and interviews with key informants. Data were coded using standard protocols for analysis of qualitative data (Spradley, 1980). The researcher read through the transcripts and field notes and coded all phrases and opinions from the manuscript. Data were analysed through the process of data reduction, selective sampling of the literature, and selected sampling of the data (Stern, 1980). From the initial codes, data reduction identified core variables and emergent themes. Through this grounded theory methodology, a conceptual model was developed which illustrates the motives and experiences of those who travel to follow professional sport teams. Three distinct types of groups were identified, each garnering a distinctive sport tourism experience. The groups identified were: supporter groups, long-term travel groups, and temporary travel groups. While travel to follow the team is the stated rationale for all three groups, the game experience for each is substantially different, four major themes emerged which distinguished the groups and the experiences that they had. These were: (1) group structure, (2) trip characteristics, (3) socialisation, and (4) game experience and reaction to game outcome. Each type of group was found to have a distinct group structure, communication pattern, but differed in terms of the objects to which they identified. Findings suggest that sport fans do not necessarily identify with the team or related object, but can identify with a smaller social group, which has a shared interest in the team. These elements of group structure and point of identification were found to have a reciprocal relationship with various travel elements that were utilised by each group including the mode of transport, temporal elements, choice of destination, and activities at the destination. In particular, the travel elements were chosen so that each group type could best express and experience that which is core to each group. Further analysis suggested that the experience of each of the groups was influenced by the continual development of the group both before and during the travel experience. For the supporter groups and long-term travel groups, rituals, symbols, and folklore played a key role in the experience. These elements of performance were used to continually shape and interpret the travel experience. One would expect that the game would have elevated importance, as it is the activity that legitimates each group. However, the on-field game did not have prime importance. Instead the different points of identification of each group were used as a basis through which the game was experienced. Key implications for sport and tourism marketing suggest that the sport tourism experience is more than an experience of place or an experience of watching the sport. Identification with a small social group is sufficient to generate travel to follow a team. By providing a setting which immerses participants in a particular identity for a prolonged period of time, the act of travelling itself can create a social climate that encourages participants to undertake the trip week after week, and form deep connection to the team.

Abstract:

Sport events and attractions which encourage both participants and spectators are seen as significant contributors to the tourism economy (Delpy, 1998; Glyptis, 1991; Standeven & DeKnop, 1999). Further, Gratton and Taylor (2000) note that sport related travel accounts for 7% of total expenditure on sport. To date, the main focus of event sport tourism research has been on the economic impact of large-scale sport events (Burgan & Mules, 1992; Crompton, 1995; Mules & Faulkner, 1996; Walo, Bull, & Breen, 1996). However, Higham (1999) posits that smaller scale events such as regular season games may be of greater benefit to the host community as these events are hosted within existing infrastructure and therefore limit the need for public expenditure. However, fans who travel to regular season competition are a market segment that has been largely ignored by both sport and tourism marketers. Sport marketers have focused on home game attendance, media viewership and product purchases, while tourism marketers have focused on leveraging the destination. Anecdotal evidence suggests that fans who travel organise a substantial proportion of their discretionary time and income around this activity. Recent research by Gibson, Willming and Holdnak (2002, 2003) has begun to understand the behaviours of sport fans who travel to home games. This study seeks to understand the behaviours and experiences of those who travel to attend away games. In particular the study asks: What motivates fans to travel to follow professional sport teams, what experiences fans have and seek during the travel, and what place does travelling to follow a sport team have in the overall consumption behaviour of sport fans. This study examined the motives and experiences of six fan groups travelling interstate to follow their Australian Football League (AFL) team in the 2001 season. As the behaviours and experiences of those who travel to follow sport teams have not previously been explored, exploratory analysis using an iterative process of constant comparison between data colleted from the research setting and the existent literature. Using this method the researcher was able to describe the social world under investigation without preconceived hypotheses. The researcher travelled interstate with each fan group, and collected data via participant observation and interviews with key informants. Data were coded using standard protocols for analysis of qualitative data (Spradley, 1980). The researcher read through the transcripts and field notes and coded all phrases and opinions from the manuscript. Data were analysed through the process of data reduction, selective sampling of the literature, and selected sampling of the data (Stern, 1980). From the initial codes, data reduction identified core variables and emergent themes. Through this grounded theory methodology, a conceptual model was developed which illustrates the motives and experiences of those who travel to follow professional sport teams. Three distinct types of groups were identified, each garnering a distinctive sport tourism experience. The groups identified were: supporter groups, long-term travel groups, and temporary travel groups. While travel to follow the team is the stated rationale for all three groups, the game experience for each is substantially different, four major themes emerged which distinguished the groups and the experiences that they had. These were: (1) group structure, (2) trip characteristics, (3) socialisation, and (4) game experience and reaction to game outcome. Each type of group was found to have a distinct group structure, communication pattern, but differed in terms of the objects to which they identified. Findings suggest that sport fans do not necessarily identify with the team or related object, but can identify with a smaller social group, which has a shared interest in the team. These elements of group structure and point of identification were found to have a reciprocal relationship with various travel elements that were utilised by each group including the mode of transport, temporal elements, choice of destination, and activities at the destination. In particular, the travel elements were chosen so that each group type could best express and experience that which is core to each group. Further analysis suggested that the experience of each of the groups was influenced by the continual development of the group both before and during the travel experience. For the supporter groups and long-term travel groups, rituals, symbols, and folklore played a key role in the experience. These elements of performance were used to continually shape and interpret the travel experience. One would expect that the game would have elevated importance, as it is the activity that legitimates each group. However, the on-field game did not have prime importance.

Abstract:

The aim of the study was to examine what the economic and touristic impacts of the sports event - UEFA EURO 2012 - will have on Polish regions. The essay was limited to some specific regions in Poland. Those regions were Gniewino, Malbork, Kalisz, Legionowo, Pommerian Province, Cracow, Olsztyn and Zamosc. The Football Championships that will be held in 2012 are dependent of the big amount of football fans that will came and spend their money in Polish regions. Thanks to the increased consumption this creates demand for local services and products. The generator of spending is the tourism multiplier that is the main link to the touristic expenditure.The multiplier is a catalyst of the region that creates jobs, growing yield, promotion of the region and improvement of its infrastructure and leisure facilities. This is considered as an advantage from an economical and touristic point of view. The economical and tourstic benefits are different for every mentioned region in the study because of their location and link to the UEFA EURO 2012. This study shows only how the different eight regions prepare for the UEFA EURO 2012 and what they think that the negative and positive economical and touristic impacts will gain them. The study gives only a short brief of the football event of what can happen.

Abstract:

This paper presents an alternative to the current use of gasoline and diesel for transportation in Barbados. By relying on experimental evidence, it shows that biomethane emanating from the combination of Sargassum seaweed that is found on the seashores of the country with wastewater from rum distillery production can be used to produce an alternative transportation fuel. If implemented successfully, this alternative combustion method can avoid as much as 1 million metric tons of CO2 emissions every year in the country. These findings have important implications for policymakers. First, they can contribute to the national objective of becoming fossil fuel free by 2030 and diversifying the energy matrix. Second, this alternative fuel can improve resilience to natural catastrophes, complementing the transition to renewables and diversification of the sector. Third, the impact on the tourism industry is expected to be high and positive, as the Sargassum seaweed has been declared a national emergency due to its prevalence on beach tourism spots.
