“…Florido-Benítez and del Alc azar (2020) and Florido-Benítez (2021c) claimed that ¾ of tourists arrived in Spain through airports in 2019. The literature relation to airport's hinterland, and spatial spillover effects is not very extensive, and this paper is focused on these authors (Hakfoort et al, 2001;Percoco, 2010;Alves, 2014;Jian et al, 2017;Sheard, 2019;Kassarda, 2020;Breidenbach, 2020;Florido-Benítez, 2021c, 2021dBenedetti et al, 2012;Doganis, 2019;Perboli et al, 2015;Yuen et al, 2017;Chen et al, 2021, amongst many others). The systematic review process can be defined as a thorough review of the existing evidence on a clearly formulated question that applies explicit and systematic procedures to identify, choose and critically appraise relevant research, along with the extraction and analysis of data from the studies that are incorporated in the review (De Menezes and Kelliher, 2011;Christofi et al, 2017).…”
