E-tourism is an economic reality confirmed by Tailor Nelson Sofres (TNS) surveys. The tourism sector has attracted net surfers in France as it generates almost half of its total business transactions via the web. All tourism and travel actors, from multinational to small and medium enterprises (SME), don’t question the role of e-commerce and e-business anymore. These enterprises have to stand the heat, the market is ready, and customers are connected!
Among the most dynamic sectors, online travel sites top the list. Leading brands like SNCF, Club Med and many others mainly depend on their product sale over the Internet. The web offers new opportunities, greater reactivity, and the possibility to modify distribution plan in real time.
