Abstract

The purpose of the focus group sessions was to identify significant perceptions about Spain from Los Angeles residents who traveled to Spain and other foreign destinations. In particular, the discussions focused on the image of Spain as a vacation destination, their experiences there, motivation to travel to Spain, and exposure to promotion in the Los Angeles area. The methodology used was to start each discussion by introducing broad issues of vacation travel, traveling to foreign destinations, and incrementally narrow down to a full discussion about Spain as a vacation destination.
