Chapter 7
Case Problems: 1
Joan S. and her husband are planning a
vacation to a destination about which they know very little. They have seen an
exciting ad for this area in a travel magazine. They respond to the ad, and subsequently
they receive a group of fascinating brochures describing all the attractions,
accommodations, shops, climate, and other allures. In the same magazine they
saw an ad for an airline that serves this destination, including Web site
information for reservations. Should they make their own reservations or should
they seek the help of a travel agency?
Case Problem: 3
A prominent national columnist recently
advised his readers that they should bypass their local travel agencies and
obtain their cruise vacations directly from the suppliers by phone or Internet.
This recommendation was intended to save the public money because, he
explained, ship lines pay commissions to travel agencies whenever a sale is
made. What’s wrong with such advice?
Case Problem: 4
An international tour company partnership is
owned by Bill and Jane W. Bill is a rather deliberate, cautious type; Jane
tends to be more aggressive and promotional in her day-to-day business
relationships. The company’s volume of business has declined somewhat during
the past two years. Considering the decline, the couple recently had an
extended discussion as to possible steps that might increase tour sales. Jane
finally proposed that they should contact some of the largest travel agency
cooperatives, also known as co-ops, consortia, franchisers, joint marketing
organizations, stockholder licensee groups, and individual and corporate-owned
chains. Jane thought that perhaps if their company could become a so-called
preferred supplier to one or several of these groups, they would then increase
their business considerably. Almost all of their tours are sold through retail
travel agencies. Bill listened to this suggestion and then said, “I doubt that
this idea would do us any good. The co-op movement is not well established, and
a lot of agencies are not members at all.” Who’s right? Why? Explain your
position.
Chapter 8
Case Problem: 1
Many of the states in the United States are
experiencing budget problems. A number of legislatures are considering legalizing
gaming (gambling). Some states have already done so. As a state representative,
you have decided to introduce legislation legalizing gaming to bolster your
state’s budget. What would be your arguments supporting this bill? What
opposition would you expect?
