Abstract
ABSTRACT A divorce can be one of the most traumatic events spouses and families experience; it may generate psychological and somatic negative effects and may also lead to financial difficulties. In this context, post-divorce travel has been promoted as a positive strategy for alleviating this stress; in fact, some hotels offer special services and promotions for divorcees. In this study, using time series data from 1996Q1 to 2019Q4, a structural VAR model is used to document the effect of registered divorces on the number of tourist departures from Mexico. The results indicate that the number of registered divorces positively stimulates the growth in outbound tourism. These results are confirmed by the application of the Granger causality test.
