Abstract

Describes how, in response to a weakened market share, the USA sponsored the White House conference on travel and tourism which was held in October 1995. A highly successful event, the conference proposed strategies and tactics which encourage international travel to the USA. Suggests that, on the one hand, this conference points to future increased competition which the USA will exert within the international tourism industry. On the other hand, believes the findings and suggestions of the conference may be useful to the European travel and tourism industry as it forges tactics for its own future growth.
