详细

The paper considers the problem of population aging and the impact of this multifaceted process on the developing tourism industry. The authors focus on the influence of population aging on the methods of the creation and the essential content of a new tourist product. The decisive role of the senior tourists’ needs is considered separately. In addition, certain gender preferences of third-age people are noted, since it is they who create consumer demands that are becoming mandatory for the tourism industry. The new social and economic roles of senior-age people are a serious problem that urgently needs to be resolved.
