Factors having an influence on travel demand to Iran are explored. The hypothesis specifies the variable of “domestic upheavals and insecurity” as the most significant obstacle to expansion of the demand for travel to Iran.
Several demand models are briefly reviewed, and then in a macro model the function of demand for travel to Iran is estimated, using econometric methods. The substantial finding is at the moment, the low demand for travel to Iran is not due to insufficient infrastructures and facilities, but it is because of the element of “insecurity”. Hence, this issue needs to be addressed by new policies.
