  • Abstract
    Recently there has been observed a global trend towards increasing the range of tourism products and services as well as ways of their distribution. This steps forth the issue of developing an information system that would provide advisory support to tourists in adopting the decision on an individual travel. The theoretical and experimental research is performed on applying the methods of multi-criteria analysis for solving the problem of choosing an individual travel. Experimental research of the sensitivity of the solution conducted allows analyzing influence of the choice criteria on the result and allows formulating an insensitive solution. Based on the results of the research it is possible to make a motivated choice of a travel according to the tourist´s preferences.
