dc.description.abstractThis research analyzes the vision of substituting inner-European touristic flights with railway services, which seems to be an interesting way to reduce tourism related emission. The paper should give answers towards questions as “how tourism might be distributed if there was a sufficient night train system and air traffic was less attractive” or “whether it is in general possible to substitute those flights by trains”. In order to find out how a distribution would look like if flights were less attractive, trip distribution will be modelled using an adapted gravity model. This model will respect both classical trip distribution and tourism modeling criteria. In a following step, promising traffic relations will be analyzed in depth. This analysis then includes country- and corridor specific questions for promising relations to the Mediterranean coast. For policy makers, these findings will be translated into recommendations on how to improve European rail services for tourism purposes.en_US
