“…Furthermore, the result of a recent study shows that perceived risk negatively affects the tourist decision to visit during the COVID-19 Pandemic (Zainuddin et al, 2022). Correspondingly, the study found that COVID-19 risk perception related factors Perceived avoid the ability of COVID-19, Perceived susceptibility to COVID-19, Perceived severity of COVID-19 significant negatively associated with travel intention during pandemic (Yoo et al, 2022). Mental well-being perceived uncertainty negatively affecting tourist travel behavior over a short period or long term period (Chua et al, 2020).…”

“…We found that most of the empirical research was carried out in Indonesia (n 5 12) (Afriani and Sugiarto, 2020;Alwi et al, 2022;Azis et al, 2020;Bustan and Setiawan, 2021;Kadir et al, 2020;Lemy et al, 2020;Pinem et al, 2021;Sianipar et al, 2021;Sihotang and Sukaatmadja, 2021;Sitinjak et al, 2021;Sukaatmadja et al, 2022;Zainuddin et al, 2022). After that, 7 studies were based on the data collected from China (Agyeiwaah et al, 2021;Cai et al, 2021a;Han et al, 2021;Hu and Xu, 2021;Jiang et al, 2022;Riestyaningrum et al, 2020;Zeng and Li, 2021) followed by the Malaysia (n 5 5) (Ahmad et al, 2021a, b;Hanafiah et al, 2021;Ramli et al, 2021;Tiam Chin et al, 2021) and India (n 5 4) (Gupta et al, 2021;Kour et al, 2021;Rather, 2021a, b) and in Korea (n 5 4) (Shin et al, 2022;Sinha and Nair, 2021;Yoo et al, 2022;Yu et al, 2021).

“…Moreover, crisis communication strategy also evolved the intention to visit the destination post the COVID-19 situation (Hang et al, 2020). A recent study (Yoo et al, 2022) found that the Perceived effectiveness of COVID-19 protective measures, mediates the relationship between risk perception and travel intention. Similarly, the study found that accommodation type moderates the relationship between the perceived effectiveness of COVID-19 protective measures and travel intention during pandemics (Yoo et al, 2022).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the drivers and barriers of travel behavior associated with tourist behavior during/post-COVID-19 pandemic to provide a knowledge base as well as an agenda for future research.Design/methodology/approachThe authors utilized the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) technique for searching the articles published in Web of Science (WOS) and Scopus, to identify the main drivers and barriers affecting the tourist behavior during/post-COVID-19 pandemic. Eventually, 47 articles were chosen for the final analysis.FindingsThe findings are reported in three sections, (1) quantitative research profile, (2) qualitative synthesis and (3) future agenda. This study addresses the nuanced questions regarding the significant change in tourist travel behavior, emotional dynamics and a detailed understanding of mechanisms, such as which drivers and barriers affect tourist behavior in a particular destination. Drivers and barriers to tourist travel behavior were characterized in personal-related, destination-related, and health-related factors. Moreover, this study provides thought-provoking ideas in theory, policy and practice in the field of tourism and hospitality.Research limitations/implicationsThis study has three limitations, as follows. First, the authors searched only two databases, Scopus and Web of Science, due to which the authors might be missing some related studies existing on the other databases. Although these databases provide an extensive range of academic literature, further studies could extend the data collection from the other databases (e.g. via Taylor & Francis). However, our systematic literature review (SLR) coverage is quite extensive, since journals are listed on these three main databases. Second, the authors followed a main study search protocol based on the synonyms and related keywords, however, some of the studies that may be related to the tourist behavior towards the destination are missing on account of the lack of our keywords in there, title, author, keyword and abstract. Furthermore, future research could endeavor to add other keywords to expand the results of studies. Third, although the accurate analysis was conducted to reduce subjectivity in identifying themes for drivers and barriers of tourist behavior, future studies on categorization could work to ensure that other sub-themes categorize.Practical implicationsThe recent study has some key practical implications. First, this study is valuable for all the stakeholders in a unique way, including destination managers, academicians and policymakers, because it provides insight into barriers and drivers that influence the development of tourist behavior towards the destination. Second, the current study also offers practical implications for people involved in tourism service industries including governments and private businesses. Policymakers and other leaders are increasingly interested in harnessing the economic potential of tourism. Therefore, identifying the barrier which is inhibiting the tourist traffic towards the destination is beneficial to understand and effectively develop strategies to minimize the effect of such factors. Moreover, drivers and barriers of tourist behavior towards the destination in the COVID-19 pandemic situation towards the destination may help to create a framework for the development of destinations according to the current vulnerable situation. Third, current findings suggest that tourism marketers understand the drivers and barrier constructs found in this study and tailor their marketing strategies for attracting existing and new tourists. For instance, marketers should understand the drivers and barriers of tourist behavior for effective strategy development to increase the positive effect of drivers and to reduce the negative effect of barriers.Originality/valueThis is the first systematic literature review on the impact of drivers and barriers of tourist travel behavior. This paper analyses the methods and approaches that have been used in the previous literature to examine the drivers and barriers of tourist travel behavior. The paper ends with the research implication and limitations of the studies.

Purpose This study aims to analyze the moderating roles of familiarity, generation and gender on the impacts of coronavirus fear-uncertainty on the destination image and visiting intentions post-COVID-19. Design/methodology/approach This paper seeks to provide evidence for a research conclusion by conducting a survey of 431 potential travelers of various nationalities who visited Egypt. The data were examined using structural equation modeling with a multigroup analysis and PROCESS MACRO. Findings The findings indicated that the links between coronavirus fear-uncertainty, the destination image and intention to visit were significantly different from one gender and generation group to another. Moreover, it showed that destination familiarity moderates the negative effects of coronavirus fear-uncertainty on the destination image and intention to visit. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper is the first to explore the moderating role of destination familiarity, generation and gender in the effects post-COVID-19 of coronavirus fear-uncertainty on the destination image and travelers’ intention to visit using generational cohort theory and gender schema theory.

“…Since tourism is impacted by several external factors, the tourism industry is significantly vulnerable to large-scale risks (RITCHIE -JIANG 2019). Travel risk refers to the possibility of experiencing certain forms of threat while travelling, whereas perceived travel risk is often defined as travellers' perceptions of uncertain outcomes of the travel decision or the negative consequences of purchasing the tourism product (PARK -REISINGER 2010, SOHN et al 2016, YOO et al 2022). In the field of travel risk perception, risk associated with international travel is often related to terrorism, war and political instability, health concerns, natural disasters, and acts of crime.…”

From a general perspective, risk is inherently part of all tourism experience, however, some tourists are less concerned about certain risk factors, while others tend to be more risk-averse which has a negative impact on their intention to travel. This study examines how Hungarian travellers with different socio-demographic characteristics differ in terms of the perception of risk associated with international tourism. The risk factors included in this study are: terrorism, political instability, health risk, natural disasters, and crime. A random sample of 210 Hungarian travellers was tested. A series of paired samples t-test analyses and multiple analysis of variance revealed significant differences in the perceived influence of travel risks on international tourism among respondents with different socio-demographic profiles. Examining how Hungarian travellers differ in terms of travel risk perception contributes to a better understanding of their travel intentions and destination choice.
