Abstract
Understanding the family vacation decision-making process is important to everyone in tourism related industries—travel agents, governments, and private business. This article describes a study conducted on Columbus, Ohio, husband-and-wife teams to determine subdecision areas of the vacation decision process, each family member's influence in these subdecision areas, and criteria that they felt important in making these subdecisions.Keywords
