Impact of achieved development levels on the number of tour operators and travel agencies in selected European countries
The aim of the paper is to investigate whether the number of tour operators and travel agencies is determined by the achieved development levels, measured by economic, education, digital skills and internet booking development indicators. Eurostat data for the main variable and four additional variables under study were used for 32 European countries for 2016. Firstly, the descriptive statistical analysis and outlier detection were performed. The correlation and regression analyses were used to determine if different achieved development levels could explain different number of tour operators and travel agencies in the observed countries. Finally, all five variables were used in hierarchical cluster analysis of the observed countries. The conducted analysis has pointed out great differences in the number of tour operators and travel agencies between the observed countries, with the coefficient of variation larger than 120%. Weak negative correlations are noticed between the variable the number of tour operators and travel agencies and two indicators, the high education level and the digital skills development level. Slightly stronger positive, but still weak, correlations appeared with the economic development and Internet booking level indicators. However, the hierarchical clustering resulted in four clusters of countries, two of which appeared to have over-average number of tour operators and travel agencies, while having some other development level characteristics in common. The conducted analyses showed that in the selected European countries the number of tour operators and travel agencies is not related to the chosen economic, education and two digital development level indicators in a statistically significant way.
