Abstract

The prices of tourist packages offered by various tour operators are not directly comparable, given the diversity of their characteristics. The services contracted differ in volume, quality and location. This work studies the vacations offered on the island of Mallorca by a sample of German tour operators, analysing the structure of the hotels contracted and the price distribution of tourist packages. This last variable is described taking as essential references the tour operator, hotel star rating, type of board and hotel location.
