| Abstract: | This study examines the impacts of local airports on the regional tourism industry in Japan. A series of indexes of the tourists and a new measure of the time index have been developed based on our four-cell model to analyze the correlation between different indexes such as the number of airport tourists and the time used by public transportation. During the verification process, a correlation has been discovered between the number of tourists in the city where the airport is located and the number of airport users for specific regionally managed airports. Furthermore, regarding access to tourist attractions from airports, a strong negative correlation is confirmed between the evaluation index and the state of development of public transport, suggesting the importance of developing public transport, including airports, in attracting tourists. |
