REVIVAL OF A NEW TYPE OF TOURISM: STAYCATION
Abstract
This paper presents an old type of tourism–staycation and its synonyms–agrocation, daycation, flexcation, holistay, and nearcation. Staycation shares some features with hocance tourism, home exchanging, homestay tourism, near-home/proximity tourism, residential tourism, and second-home tourism. The paper presents the factors limiting vacationers’ ability to travel away from home, thus turning them into staycationers–economic, health, political, and social disruptions, as well as staycation objectives, activities, advantages/benefits, and risks.
