Abstract

This paper measures the impacts of demographic and distance variables on household leisure travel to Orlando, Florida, and to other destinations in Florida. The paper examines travel to Florida from other states for rest and relaxation, sightseeing, outdoor recreation, and entertainment. We find significant differences between households with Orlando as the destination and households with other Florida destinations. The results are based on individual household data from the 1995 American Travel Survey (ATS) conducted by the US Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics.
