Editorial: navigating the destination of the future / Donna Chambers. - United Kingdom : Routledge, c2022. - pages 173-182
Includes bibliographical references (181-182).
This editorial for the Special Issue on “Navigating the destination of the future” seeks to provide an overview of the six (6) contributions selected from the 4th Caribbean International Tourism Conference, 11–13 December 2019 Barbados. These papers cover a range of topical issues from air services route development to education for tourism. The common thread running through them is their relevance for geographically small destinations, particularly, though not exclusively, in the Caribbean region. This editorial contextualizes these contributions in terms of the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, which has been particularly devastating for the travel and tourism industry. It concludes by suggesting that while the future for travel and tourism in geographically small destinations is uncertain, one answer must lie in the privileging of indigenous voices.
