The travel industry is constantly changing. The butlers model is a way of
seeing what stage an organisation is at
• Exploration - a small number of tourists visit the area. The area is un spoilt
and few tourist facilities exist.
• Involvement - local people start to provide some facilities for tourists. There
starts to become a recognized tourist season.
• Development - the host country starts to develop and advertise the area. The
area becomes recognized as a tourist destination.
• Consolidation - the area continues to attract tourists. The growth in tourist
numbers may not be a fast as before. Some tensions develop between the
host and the tourists.
• Stagnation - the facilities for the tourists may decline as they become old and
run down. The numbers of tourists may decline too.

means that they will become more overcrowded and lead them into decline. In the
ABTA travel trends report it shows that the western Mediterranean is more popular
with large visitor numbers but there are now more indications that people are
travelling back to the eastern countries as they have seen a rise such as turkey
which has seen a 69% growth in the summer of 2018. This is a continued trend and
will affect Barcelona because it will be less over crowded. This will make the locals
happier because there is less tourists. However this could negatively impact
Barcelona’s reputation and could make them earn less as a tourist destination.
Barcelona is not much of an activity destination as it provides generic excursions that
can be found in other destinations. Also in the travel trends report it mentions about
