Alao and Batabyal (2013) have recently used contract theory to study the sale of package tours to tourists when the tourists can be of two possible types. In this note, we first generalize their analysis by studying the case in which the tourists can be of infinitely many types. Next, we compare...

We provide the first contract-theoretic analysis of how best to sell package tours to heterogeneous tourists in an environment with asymmetrically held information. Our analysis has three practical implications. First, asymmetric information tends to hamper package tour sales. Second, some...
