İnternet ve Bilgi Sistemleri Kullanımının Turizm Dağıtım Kanallarına Etkisi Üzerine Bir Uygulama

İnternetin insan hayatına girmesi ile birlikte diğer çoğu sektör gibi turizm sektöründe de pek çok önemli değişim meydana gelmiştir. Bu değişimlerden biri de turizm pazarlama ve dağıtım sisteminde meydana gelmiştir. Tüketicilerin seyahat acentesi şubesi aracılığıyla satın almayı gerçekleştirdikleri geleneksel turizm dağıtım sistemi zamanla yerini internet siteleri üzerinden satın almanın gerçekleştiği çevrimiçi dağıtım sistemine bırakmıştır. Böylece çevrimiçi seyahat acenteleri (OTA) olarak adlandırılan yeni bir bilgi sistemi türü olan turizm bilgi sistemi kavramı ortaya çıkmıştır. İnternet üzerinden tatil paketi, konaklama ve seyahat ürünleri satan bu yeni sistemler giderek yaygınlaşmaktadır. Bu çalışma ile çevrimiçi seyahat acentelerinin (online travel agency) sektör içerisindeki konumu, avantaj ve dezavantajları, kullanım oranları ve tercih edilme nedenleri araştırılmaktadır. Bu amaçla konuyla ilgili detaylı bilgi verilmiş ve belirlenen örneklem üzerinde anket çalışması uygulanmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda internet üzerinden tatil paketi veya konaklama satın alıp almama ile eğitim durumu arasında anlamlı ilişki olduğu görülmektedir. Ayrıca katılımcıların internet üzerinden tatil paketi veya konaklama satın alma tercih nedenlerinde, en yüksek oranlara sahip olan seçeneklerin kullanıcı yorumları ve fiyat karşılaştırabilme olduğu görülmüştür. Bu tercihte en düşük oranın da güvenilirlikte olduğu saptanmıştır.
