Greetings! I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to request specific statistical data for my thesis, which is a crucial component of my research. The title of my thesis is "Navigating the Hotel Booking Landscape: An Exploration of Travel Profiles, Demographic Characteristics, and Motivations Impacting Customers' Choices between Direct and Online Travel Agency (OTA) Bookings in Baguio City."
My target respondents for this study are domestic tourists in Baguio City. The primary focus of my research is to understand why these tourists prefer booking through online travel agencies instead of opting for direct bookings with hotels. Additionally, I am seeking information on the top 5 hotels in Baguio City with the highest occupancy rates based on their 2023 occupancy reports. These specific hotels will serve as key respondents to gather relevant data for my research.
I am currently enrolled as a student at Holy Angel University in Pampanga, pursuing a Master of Science in Hospitality and Tourism Management. Your assistance in providing the requested statistics will greatly contribute to the depth and validity of my thesis.
Thank you for considering my request, and I appreciate any support you can provide in this matter. Maraming salamat po!
