This study uses a gravity framework to model tourism demand for the Caribbean. The basic model is augmented by Linder's hypothesistourist flows are partly determined by the similarity in preferences between the destination and source marketsand climate distance, which measures the gap between climate conditions in origin and destination countries. The results indicate that traditional gravity variables are significant in explaining demand for the region. Habit persistence has the largest impact on demand, a result that holds promise for regional policy makers. Evidence is also unearthed that similarity in preferences between the region and its source markets, as well as climate distance, are important demand determinants.
