Artificial Intelligence prompt engineering in tourism and hospitality
Despite the rapid integration of generative artificial intelligence into tourism and hospitality operations, there is a critical gap in the empirical framework for evaluating how different artificial intelligence prompt engineering strategies perform across diverse marketing and management tasks, and examining how user characteristics shape these outcomes. This study addresses this gap through task-technology fit theory across two complementary e…
Diplomatic boycotts as tourism weapons
This research addresses a critical gap in understanding how tourism boycotts function as diplomatic weapons in the digital age, where traditional economic sanctions theory fails to account for tourism’s unique characteristics as a coercive instrument. The study analyzes a systematic cross-national analysis of tourism’s weaponization. Analyzing longitudinal data from 125 countries spanning 2008–2023, we document how bilateral travel restrictions c…
From tourism in the Darkverse to tourism with digital detox
The rapid adoption of immersive technologies such as the Metaverse promises to transform the tourism industry. However, some Metaverse tourism experiences fail to elicit positive feelings about corresponding authentic destinations or motivate in-person visitation. Unless redesigned, Metaverse tourism risks becoming a ‘Darkverse’ that displaces – rather than complements – actual travel. This study provides a human-centered approach by applying the…
Preserving the Past
Historic urban cities face increasing pressure from tourism, necessitating sophisticated approaches to visitor management that protect both heritage values and local communities. The current study develops new sustainable metrics—sustainable visitor capacity (SVC) and Sustainable Visitation Index (SVI)—to provide a multifaceted assessment of heritage destination management beyond simple visitor volume calculations. The SVC considers operating hou…

Advantaging Tourism Through Influencers
This study is the first to apply transaction cost theory to identify optimal influencer marketing strategies for the tourism sector through three content types: hero, hub, and hygiene content. Transaction cost theory posits that stakeholders seek to minimize information search and delivery costs. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with different experienced level tourists to measure the effect of influencer attributes and content on inspir…
Enhancing sustainable passenger experience through duty-free shopping at King Fahd Airport

This study examines the relationships between duty-free shopping experiences, traveler well-being, and brand perceptions at King Fahd International Airport. Utilizing a quantitative resear…
Tourism digital detox and digital-free tourism
Purpose While past research has begun exploring digital-free tourism, tourism digital detox and their benefits, no study to date has comprehensively mapped trends, findings and limitations across this growing body of literature. This study aims to conduct the first bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review to address this gap. Design/methodology/approach This study utilized a mixed methodology of bibliometric analysis and systematic …
Sustainable Stewardship of Egypt’s Iconic Heritage Sites
While sustainability is widely recognized as necessary for managing heritage sites, balancing preservation demands with tourism development pressures presents significant challenges. A critical gap in the existing research relates to understanding the recurring issues that undermine the long-term sustainability of prominent archaeological destinations in Egypt and visitor well-being. Specifically, more research is needed to identify the specific …
Sustainability of Leisure Tourism Events from a Destination Social Responsibility Perspective
Although Destination Sustainable Responsibility (DSR) has become a critical factor in upholding tourists' satisfaction and positive behavioral outcomes, research on how tourists perceive different attributional dimensions (e.g., controllability, stability) about the existing information adequacy on tourists' behavior is limited. Additionally, no study has investigated how DSR influences leisure tourists' satisfaction across various characteristic…
Travelers’ Subjective Well-Being as an Environmental Practice
The physical environment of airports plays a crucial role in improving travelers' perceptions and well-being. Adopting a green physical environment may elicit customers' cognitive and emotional responses and provide a convenient consumption environment. Brand experience and engagement are other important consumer-firm interactions that influence the attributes of the passengers' well-being. The current study sought to assess the impact of the eco…
The effects of tourist’s fading memories on tourism destination brands’ attachment
Although tourists’ attachment to tourism destination brands is crucial for destination revenue growth, there is a lack of investigations about nostalgic effects on tourists’ attachment to tourism destinations. Fleeting but powerful, romantic relationship break-up is an important dimension of nostalgia. Therefore, this paper examines and strengthens the various aspects of how tourists interpret a destination where they visited before with their ex…
Service Value and Repurchase Intention in the Egyptian Fast-Food Restaurants
Service value is a crucial dominant indicator in customer decision-making. However, there is a lack of hospitality literature that investigates the multi-dimensional service value in emerging markets. Thus, this study aims to create a multi-dimensional scale for service value and to analyze how different service value dimensions affect customers repurchase intentions at fast-food restaurants. We make a conceptual framework with eight constructs, …
Digital-Free Tourism Holiday as a New Approach for Tourism Well-Being
Digital-free tourism (DFT) has recently attracted tourism service providers' attention for its benefits in terms of enhancing tourists' experiences and well-being at destinations. DFT refers to tourists who are likely to voluntarily avoid digital devices and the Internet on holiday, or travel to destinations without network signals. DFT has advantages for tourists in increasing well-being, mental health, and social networking during their journey…
