Abstract or Description

Travel and tourism contributes substantially to the economy in Florida, where 48.7 million people vacationed in 1998. Almost 8 million of these were foreigners (THCVA, Inc, 1999). In 1997 alone, Florida visitors spent over $40 billion and tourism directly employed almost 800,000 Floridians (Florida Department of Revenue, 1998).
