International Cases in Tourism Management Reviews

"The cases are sufficiently broad in covering the tourism industries: airlines, tour operators, publishers, associations, destinations, NGOs, tourism ministries, attractions, hotels, cruise lines, specialty tourism, education/training, timeshares, and others. ...most instructors will find some cases in the book to enliven the classroom experience for early undergraduate students." - D.C.
