International radiance (percentage of foreign tourists)
|
[guest nights from foreign tourists/total guest nights] |
|
[- %] |
|
The more the region has a high ratio of foreign tourists, the more it would be sensitive in the future. We suppose that distance increases risks of external factors affecting tourism flow. For example variations in oil prices or wars. For example, with taxes on fuel or oil scarcity, the price of oil could increase. Therefore fewer foreign tourists could afford to come to Switzerland for holidays. |

On the other hand, on a short term a higher international radiance of a region signifies generally smaller seasonality because tourists’ arrival is more split over the year (different holiday calendars) and it generates a higher guest nights/one-day tourists’ ratio. A differentiation could have been made between e.g. tourists coming from the neighbouring countries, the rest of Europe and the rest of the world. |
