“…Some scholars note that cognitive distance has a positive effect on tourist satisfaction (H. L. Zhang et al 2011); it also has an impact on the destination image (Crompton 1979), tourist consumption decision, destination type selection, and local feature recognition (Walmsley and Jenkins 1992; Kang 2016). If cognitive distance is not taken into account, then the analysis and prediction of the tourist destination decision may be misleading or incomplete (Ankomah and Crompton 1992; Ankomah, Crompton, and Baker 1995).…”

This study aims to explore the antinomy of distance effects in tourist destination choice by demonstrating its catalytic effect and functionary mechanism. The concept of “distance desire” is proposed to express the catalytic effect of distance, while the attributes and subdivisional dimensions of this concept are also analyzed. A tourist destination decision model is constructed to explore the relationships between the related behavior variables and tourist travel intention. The results of this study indicate that distance desire as well as tourist attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control are important variables that positively affect tourist travel intention. Distance desire has also been demonstrated to play an intermediary role between tourist attitudes and travel intention and tourist subjective norms and travel intention. The introduction of distance desire can improve and enhance the interpretation and forecasting capabilities of the tourist destination decision model.

“…Smartphones and tablets are used to trace locations by GPS, cell-tower identification and Wi-Fi positioning. Even though the development of mobile applications in smartphones has not been used extensively so far, there is still good potential also for enriching data with qualitative information related to the visiting experiences (Shoval & Ahas 2016, Kang 2016. Furthermore, various technological applications are being developed that are not yet reported in tourism literature.…”

Cruisers in the City of Helsinki: staging the mobility of cruise passengers

International cruise passengers moving in urban destinations have particular time limitation that can make enabling and disabling elements of mobility meaningful on the quality of their visit. Identifying these elements is essential to improve their independent movement. Based on a staging mobilities framework that considers the dimensions of physical settings, material spaces, design (PMD), social interactions (SI) and embodied performances (EP) in situ, the research has analysed location-specific information in Helsinki, a popular port of call in the Baltic Sea. The study has used go-along observations and mobile application in data collection. The produced dataset was analysed by combining GIS-methods and content analyses. As a result, five categories were identified under the dimension of PMD: wayfinding tools, unexpected situations, lack of rest spots and walkability. Categories identified under the dimension of SI were local people, service providers and travel companions, and other tourists. Categories identified under the dimension of EP were traffic behaviour, occasioned activities, sense of direction, planning, and time-related anxiety. Urban destinations such as Helsinki can apply these results in practice, to make the movement of independently moving cruise passengers as effortless as possible, contributing to a better experience of the city space for both tourists and other city users. The proposed methodology could also be used to analyse other mobility-related phenomena.

“…On the whole, however, their trips in South Australia tended to be limited to one or two nights and to be centred on Adelaide. Kang (2016) noted that the purpose of travel of US domestic tourists visiting selected South Carolina coastal areas was significantly associated with the incidence of multidestination travel. Parroco et al (2012) also found an association between travel purpose and multidestination travel; sea-and-sand holiday tourists were less likely to engage in multidestination travel than other tourists (e.g.…”

Multidestination travel of the Slovenian population

This paper focuses on the multidestination travel of the Slovenian population. It presents the results of a questionnaire survey that aimed to gain insight into some relevant characteristics of the travel behaviour of the Slovenian population and its links to factors that were found in previous research to be related to the incidence of multidestination travel. A destination was defined within this research as any location where an overnight stop is made. Single-destination trips prevailed. Still, a considerable percentage of respondents’ most recent trips had been multidestination trips. The greater part of them was directed to just one country within which they visited several overnight destinations. The results indicate that duration of trip, distance of destination from tourists’ residential location, familiarity of destination, travel-group size and tourists’ activities are associated with the likelihood of multidestination travel.
