“…According to this study, service equity value positively influences repurchase intention. This outcome is consistent with what Hashim and Haque [ 62 ] found: that resort customers’ service equity had a significant impact on their intention to repurchase resort stays. Additionally, this outcome supports the assertion made by Ruiz et al [ 24 ] that service equity is a source of value creation as customer interactions and restaurant communications affect how customers perceive the establishment.…”

Considering this idea and based on the measurements obtained for the TEE variable, this research converges with the works of Chin et al [15], Oviedo-García et al [12] Campón-Cerro et al [11] and Hashim and Haque [22], as they emphasize that the knowledge and education of users is a factor that affects their satisfaction, since it broadens the reference framework for evaluating the image of the company and the quality of their services. These authors also point out that sustainability is a result or consequence of the degree of client satisfaction.…”

“…By applying PLS, as in previous contributions such as Rasoolimanesh et al [18], Pérez et al [19], Villanueva-Álvaro et al [20] and Carrillo and Jorge [21], from the perspective of supply, they can study the environmental impacts of both the tourists' activity and companies' management models. Hashim and Haque [22] investigated the relationship between the equity of the service experience and behavioral intent in ecologically oriented businesses. Their findings highlight that the equity of the perceived service experience significantly influences the intention to choose sustainable companies; another relevant aspect is the strong relationship between factors such as size, organizational and structural capabilities with suppliers and achievement in terms of sustainable performance.…”
