The two types of inter-firm alliances are endogamy and exogamy. Endogamy occurs when partners share related profiles, whereas exogamy appears when allies exhibit unrelated profiles. The usefulness of this typology is that it enables the researcher to use resource-based approaches so as to suggest a dichotomy between alliances generating opposite results and representing very different stakes and risks. For practitioners, this typology allows the distinction between two classes that call for significantly different managerial approaches.
Both types of variable are significant, and they influence demand in different, though related, ways. They will influence not only total visitor flows, but also duration of trips, and expenditure in total, and per night. As Forsyth emphasises, more detailed evidence on how aviation changes, such as falls in fares, impact on these variables will enable more accurate measures of the impact of aviation changes on tourism economic benefits. A final aspect of the aviation–tourism connection that Forsyth examines concerns aviation and tourism taxes.
Input–output models estimate the positive economic impacts on spending brought about by changes such as special events; however, they do not measure the equally real negative economic impacts. An event brings additional demand to the economy – as this demand is met, additional output and jobs are created. However, the process does not end with the positive effects. I–O analysis essentially assumes that all resources and inputs are provided freely, and that no resource constraints exist. In real-life economies, when more resources are required in one area of the economy, they are drawn away, at least in part, from productive activities elsewhere in the economy.
