Description
Summary:This pilot study aimed at measuring the satisfaction of Jordanian domestic tourists about some selected components of the marketing mix offered by domestic travel agents in Jordan. Both descriptive and regression analyses were conducted with a focus on the 7 P’s of the marketing mix that relate to trips, and also their influence on the willingness of travellers to depend on travel agencies in planning domestic trips. Generally, low levels of satisfaction were reported by the respondents, moreover, none of the independent variables representing the marketing mix had a significant influence on the dependent variable. The results were briefly discussed, and implications were suggested to improve the contribution of travel agencies to domestic tourism.
