Abstract: Tourism transport is becoming a crucial part of the tourism industry. Determining the reliability of tourism transport networks is required by travel agencies and other practitioners. However, much of recent reliability assessments cannot utilize directly for tourism transport networks. Moreover, there exists a lack of passengers-oriented reliability evaluation that involves the impacts of latency. Therefore, this study assesses reliability regarding carrying the required number of passengers to their destination under budget and time constraints when considering late arrivals. For reliability assessment, an algorithm, which combines the concept of the minimal path adding a searching procedure with the Recursive Sum of Disjoint Products method, is proposed. An illustrative example is adopted to provide travel agencies with an intuitive visualization of the proposed algorithm. Reliability analysis suggests improving the performance of tourism transport networks.
