                  Expo'98 (A): Ticketing Strategy

                  By  Karel Cool,  Julio Cardoso de Menezes
                  Add to cart
                  In the Expo’98 (A) case, Julio Cardoso, an INSEAD Alumnus, is being asked to design the ticketing strategy for Expo’98. He needs to analyse the objectives for the Expo and to decide what pricing strategy will meet these objectives. He can analyse the results from the Vancouver, Brisbane and Seville Expo’s. But as each one is different, he needs to decide what is the optimal strategy for Portugal.

                          The case chronicles the development of the UK travel industry in the 80s and 90s and describes the strategies of the major competitors. The focus is on Thomson whose UK leadership position is increasingly challenged and, now, without the support of a rich parent company, will have to move into the European travel market.

                              This case analyses the difficult implementation of the 4th Disneyland Park near Paris, France, a typically American concept in the tourism and leisure industries, and its necessary adaptation to the economic and cultural environment. It follows on the first 4 years of exploitation, from the opening in April 1992 until early 1996.

                                  After having gone through a dramatic shake-out in 1974, the UK tour operating industry shows, in 1985, all the indications of a renewed fight between the established leader, Thomson Travel, and the aggressive follower, international Leisure Group (ILG). This case chronicles industry evolutions in the UK tour operating industry as well as in the adjacent air charter and travel agent industries.
