Segmenting the Alaska vacation market using novelty-seeking roles resulted in both theoretical and managerial insights. The three novelty-motivated segments differed with respect to travel-group characteristics, behaviors, and attitudes.

The segmentation model also yielded actionable information for tourism marketers.
