Book Synopsis Marketing Island Destinations by : Acolla Lewis
Download or read book Marketing Island Destinations written by Acolla Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-10-13 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past three decades, tourism has emerged as a major force in the global economy, with most countries, whether developed or developing, having increasing opportunities to participate, as both host and guest, in this socioeconomic phenomenon. Competition for a share of the tourism market has intensified as rapid tourism developments have been undertaken by various destinations in an attempt to reap those economic benefits from one of the world’s leading industries. The growth in tourism has propelled significant changes in the way in which destinations are managed and marketed. The challenge for many small island destinations is how to become or remain competitive. It is against this background that destination marketing has assumed the critical role of ensuring that the destination lifecycle does not enter into a stage of saturation and decline and the destination is able to adapt to the changing marketplace, seize opportunities and sustain its vitality.This book takes a holistic approach and considers marketing from a macro perspective, from the view of the destination.

Book Synopsis Revisiting Tourism Flows to the Caribbean by : Ms.Nicole Laframboise
Download or read book Revisiting Tourism Flows to the Caribbean written by Ms.Nicole Laframboise and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Caribbean share of the global tourism market has been declining. This study examines what is driving tourism flows. It estimates the determinants of tourism and explores variations based on sample differences, and also constructs a static nominal price comparison index. The paper finds that: (i) tourism arrivals and expenditure are sensitive to both price and income factors in source markets; (ii) price and income elasticities of tourism have declined since 2008; (iii) price elasticity is statistically insignificant for “high-end” destinations; and (iv) the nominal cost of an average one week beach holiday in the Caribbean is higher than in other beach destinations around the world. These results point to the need for structural reforms to raise product quality, cost reduction or containment in “low-end” destinations, including possibly via exchange rates, and an adjustment in aggregate consumption to adapt to the implications of a lower contribution to GDP from tourism.

Book Synopsis Caribbean Growth in an International Perspective by : Ms.Nita Thacker
Download or read book Caribbean Growth in an International Perspective written by Ms.Nita Thacker and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2012-09-27 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After earlier success, growth performance in most Caribbean countries has been disappointing since the early 1990s. With slower growth, output has fallen behind that of relevant comparator countries. This paper analyzes the growth experience of the Caribbean countries from a cross country perspective. Three findings stand out. First, the slowdown in growth is explained more by a decline in productivity rather than a lack of investment. Second, tourism has been a significant contributor to higher growth (through both capital accumulation and productivity) and lower output volatility, and in many countries there is scope for further expansion of this sector. Third, the small size and the fact that most of these countries are islands have limited growth. Policies aimed at improving productivity, further development of the tourism sector, and regional integration could pay dividends in terms of higher growth in the region.
Book Synopsis Managing Crises in Tourism by : Acolla Lewis-Cameron
Download or read book Managing Crises in Tourism written by Acolla Lewis-Cameron and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the dilemma of overdependence on tourism in Caribbean countries and territories, and the need for a resilient path to address the industry’s vulnerability in the face of natural disasters. The chapters in the book question how tourism resilience is understood and practiced in Caribbean small island developing states (SIDS) and the factors that inform, undermine, or indeed redefine the sustainable resilience agenda for these territories. With its overreliance on tourism and vulnerability to climate, the Caribbean region finds itself susceptible and in need of an innovative approach in order to survive economically. Contributors to this volume touch on all three sustainability pillars and spanning across many tourism sector considerations, such as product development, stakeholder management, hotel management, marketing and entrepreneurship. By spanning the geography of the Anglophone and Spanish Caribbean this book offers a smorgasbord of conceptual and applied perspectives to researchers in the area of tourism resilience in SIDS. It also presents strategic considerations to public and private sector practitioners in implementing measures to strengthen the competitive positioning of their destinations as they contend with the dynamism of the external and internal environments.

Book Synopsis Revisiting the Potential Impact to the Rest of the Caribbean from Opening US-Cuba Tourism by : Mr.Sebastian Acevedo Mejia
Download or read book Revisiting the Potential Impact to the Rest of the Caribbean from Opening US-Cuba Tourism written by Mr.Sebastian Acevedo Mejia and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cuban revolution and the subsequent US embargo on Cuba helped shape the tourism sector in the Caribbean, facilitating the birth and growth of alternative destinations. Therefore, the apprehension of the Caribbean tourism industry towards a change in US travel policy to Cuba is understandable, but likely unwarranted. The history of tourism in the region has shown that it is possible for all destinations to grow despite large changes in market shares. Our estimations show that liberalizing US-Cuba tourism could result in US arrivals to Cuba of between 3 and 5.6 million, most of it coming from new tourists to the region. We also identify the destinations most at risk of changes in US-Cuba relations.
