ConclusionsAppendix I; References; Footnotes 330 3 $aThis study measures the impact of changing economic conditions in OECD countries on tourist arrivals to countries/destinations in Latin America and the Caribbean. A model of utility maximization across labor, consumption of goods and services at home, and consumption of tourism services across monopolistically competitive destinations abroad is presented. The model yields estimable equations arrivals as a function of OECD economic conditions and the elasticity of substitution across tourist destinations. Estimates suggest median tourism arrivals decline by at least three to five percent in response to a one percent increase in OECD unemployment, even after controlling for declines in OECD consumption and output gaps. Arrivals to individual destination are driven by differing exposure to OECD country groups sharing similar business cycle characteristics. Estimates of the elasticity of substitution suggest that tourism demand is highly price sensitive, and that a variety of costs to delivering tourism services drive market share losses in uncompetitive destinations. One recent cost change, the 2009 easing of restrictions on U.S. travel to Cuba, supported a small (countercyclical) boost to Cuba?s arrivals of U.S. non-family travel, as well as a pre-existing surge in family travel (of Cuban origin). Despite the US becoming Cuba?s second highest arrival source, Cuban policymakers have significant scope for lowering the relatively high costs of family travel from the United States. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2011/032 606 $aTourism$zLatin America$xEconometric models 606 $aBusiness cycles$zLatin America$xEconometric models 606 $aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009 606 $aTourists$zOECD countries$xEconometric models 606 $aEuropeans$xTravel$zLatin America$xEconometric models 606 $aLabor$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aIndustries: Hospital,Travel and Tourism$2imf 606 $aUnemployment: Models, Duration, Incidence, and Job Search$2imf 606 $aSports$2imf 606 $aGambling$2imf 606 $aRestaurants$2imf 606 $aRecreation$2imf 606 $aTourism$2imf 606 $aAggregate Factor Income Distribution$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics: Consumption$2imf 606 $aSaving$2imf 606 $aWealth$2imf 606 $aLabour$2imf 606 $aincome economics$2imf 606 $aHospitality, leisure & tourism industries$2imf 606 $aIncome$2imf 606 $aUnemployment rate$2imf 606 $aConsumption$2imf 606 $aUnemployment$2imf 606 $aEconomics$2imf 606 $aIncome economics$2imf 607 $aUnited States$2imf 615 0$aTourism$xEconometric models. 615 0$aBusiness cycles$xEconometric models. 615 0$aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009. 615 0$aTourists$xEconometric models. 615 0$aEuropeans$xTravel$xEconometric models. 615 7$aLabor 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aIndustries: Hospital,Travel and Tourism 615 7$aUnemployment: Models, Duration, Incidence, and Job Search 615 7$aSports 615 7$aGambling 615 7$aRestaurants 615 7$aRecreation 615 7$aTourism 615 7$aAggregate Factor Income Distribution 615 7$aMacroeconomics: Consumption 615 7$aSaving 615 7$aWealth 615 7$aLabour 615 7$aincome economics 615 7$aHospitality, leisure & tourism industries 615 7$aIncome 615 7$aUnemployment rate 615 7$aConsumption 615 7$aUnemployment 615 7$aEconomics 615 7$aIncome economics 700 $aWolfe$b Andy$01815781 701 $aRomeu$b Rafael$01815782 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund.$bWestern Hemisphere Dept. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967037503321 996 $aRecession and Policy Transmission to Latin American Tourism$94371290 997 $aUNINA
