近十年国外旅游推荐系统的应用研究

利用网络进行在线信息搜索已成为旅游者在旅游前获取信息的主要渠道,然而随着互联网的普及发展以及电子商务网站的兴起,旅游者常常被淹没于大量的信息搜索和产品选择当中,而旅游推荐系统则是解决信息超载问题的有效方法。文章通过国外近十年的相关文献的收集整理,对旅游推荐系统的概念、应用及发展现状进行了分析,并重点对旅游推荐系统中的关键技术运用等进行了综述,指出旅游推荐系统应用的复杂性与特殊性,以及在旅游推荐系统中单纯利用基于协同过滤或基于内容过滤的技术的限制性而更多地采用基于知识的及混合的方法;探讨了旅游决策理论在推荐系统中的作用与应用;最后提出了旅游推荐系统的一般模型及未来研究热点,以期对国内旅游推荐系统的研究与应用有所借鉴。     

我国旅行社业垂直分工体系缘何难以实现?——对我国旅行社业发展垂直分工问题的思考

鉴于我国旅行社业行业秩序混乱的状况以及欧美国家旅行社行业的有序发展,旅游业界有关人士主张在我国旅行社业内发展和建立垂直分工体系,然而垂直分工体系却始终不能如人们所预想的那样得以实现,这引发了笔者对这一问题的思考.本文在分析欧美旅行社业分工体系形成背景的基础上,从市场营销学的角度对当前我国旅行社业分工体系的现实问题进行了探讨,指出在我国当前条件下,旅行社业零售代理商的生存条件尚不具备,垂直分工体系的构想仍难以实现.     

上海旅游咨询服务中心及其免费信息调查研究:游客视角

作者在实地走访上海市20个旅游咨询服务中心的基础上,对这些咨询中心的运营情况进行了分析,着重指出了咨询中心存在的问题,对中心提供的免费信息进行了分类处理和详细讨论.研究表明,咨询中心的设置、运营以及免费信息的提供多出自政府单方面的意愿,没有充分依据游客的行为方式(包括空间行为、信息阅读方式和信息搜索习惯等),难以达到预期目的.     

法制化管理和行业自律相结合——旅行社业健康发展的必然选择

The Motivations Of College Students’ Use Of Social Networking Sites In Travel Information Search Behavior: The Mediating Effect Of Interacting With Other Users

Social networking sites (SNSs) have proliferated rapidly in the last few years and continue to grow in popularity. This study argues that social networking sites play a pivotal role in college students’ trip information search behavior. The primary objective is to identify motivations that influence college students’ propensity to use SNSs to search for travel information, leading to the development of a model. This study also examines the mediating effect of interacting with other users on the relationship between motivations and information search behavior using SNSs. Hierarchical regression analysis was employed to test the hypotheses and a mediating effect. The results indicate that all four motivations (i.e., self-expression, commenting, participating in a community forum, and information seeking) affect college students’ use of SNSs when they seek travel-related information. It is also observed that interacting with others on SNSs has a mediating role in both motivations and information search behavior. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.     

北京市民反向旅游现象研究

越是城里人越喜欢到乡下旅游,越是文化人越对自然风光一往情深,旅游也遵循利益极大化规律.文章以反向旅游理论为指导,以北京市民调查结果为依据,系统论证了"城→乡"、"文化→自然"反向旅游现象的普遍性,考察了不同群体之间的细微差别.反向旅游普遍存在,但年龄较大、心理保守的人,反向旅游意向不如年轻、心理开放的人强烈.影响人们旅游意向的因素是多方面的,除了追求新奇以外,还要考虑经济、交通等因素.掌握反向旅游规律可以有效避免旅游景区建设的很多误区,如景区现代化、接待设施家庭化等.     

Travel Package Modeling: Optimal Bidding Strategy of Tour Operator to Cooperative Hotels

In the travel package industry, in order to obtain stable and sufficient source of hotel rooms for package products, the tour operators would like to cooperate with hotels located at the tourism destination. Meanwhile, the hotels also appreciate the cooperation as a way to improve occupancy rate and then revenue. This paper develops models of travel package in several scenarios to analyze the relationship between the tour operator and the hotel. Through theoretical analysis and numerical studies, this paper finds that the tour operator will bid a low wholesale room rate to the hotel with high capacity or/and a small number of individual tourists. On the other hand, the hotel with large capacity or/and less individual tourists will reserve more rooms for the travel packages, while the one with high room rate and stable source of individual tourists is not likely to remain so many rooms for the tour operator.

旅行社与汽车俱乐部经营自驾车旅游的比较研究

在国内自驾车旅游快速发展的今天,旅行社和汽车俱乐部作为该领域中两大类主要经营实体,在组织自驾车旅游时,凭借着各自的优势正在发挥着越来越大的作用.但是,由于它们所属行业特点等原因,二者在许多方面尚存在问题.本文从不同角度,将旅行社与汽车俱乐部所经营的自驾车旅游进行了比较研究,因此对相关企业、行业乃至政府相关部门的决策都是十分有意义的.     

Beyond Adoption of Travel Technology: Its Application to Unplanned Travel Behaviors

The ultimate goal of information distribution for a destination marketer is to stimulate travelers to make a purchase decision. Today, travel information can be obtained by travel technology, which enables travelers to exploit on-the-move information. Navigation services for travel technology are being more broadly used across the globe by providing a wide range of en route information. This study evaluates the effects of travel information disseminated by navigation services on unplanned behaviors during trips. The results of the study illustrate that travelers who use navigation during trips are more likely to be involved in unplanned activities and, hence, will have an increase in unplanned travel expenditures. Destination marketers can partner with travel technology providers to encourage better travel experiences for tourists and generate more travel revenues for the tourism industry.
