Abstract

L'objectif de ce chapitre est de mesurer et d'anticiper les changements, suite à une modification concurrentielle du marché du transport aérien international, pour une petite destination insulaire. Pour cela, nous nous appuyons sur le cas de la Polynésie française. Après une longue et profonde phase de recul entre 2001 et 2011, la fréquentation touristique de cette destination est aujourd'hui en situation de croissance soutenue (environ +9% par an en 2018 et 2019). Cette croissance fut aidée par l'arrivée de nouvelles compagnies aériennes internationales (French Bee et United Airlines) sur le principal tronçon commercial. L'apport de cet article est de mesurer les effets de ce changement. Grâce à une modélisation économétrique, il est mis en évidence qu'outre les éléments temporels (tendance et identifications des périodes saisonnières), trois variables semblent avoir un effet sur les arrivées touristiques : le niveau d'activité économique de la Polynésie française, le nombre d'avions arrivants en Polynésie française et le taux de change avec le dollar. D'après ces estimations, la croissance des arrivées touristiques sera fortement impactée par cette nouvelle capacité du transport aérien, ce qui illustre l'urgence d'adapter le produit touristique à cette nouvelle croissance. Une comparaison est effectuée avec les données réelles observées et elle permet de comprendre que ces outils quantitatifs peuvent être très utiles aux gestionnaires de destination, notamment pour le cas d'une petite économie insulaire, où de petites variations sur un marché (ici, le transport aérien international) peuvent avoir des fortes conséquences économiques. Pour terminer, les résultats sont commentés avec le contexte sanitaire de la pandémie de covid-19.
