It is anticipated that Gadeok New Airport will be constructed, and the entity responsible for its operation will be a new airport authority, not the existing airport corporation, as the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has announced its plan to establish the Gadeok New Airport Construction Authority. Based on the precedents of existing airport corporations, it is expected that the future authority will undergo organizational changes to become an airport corporation. This study seeks to establish criteria for selecting overseas airports for benchmarking when researching the entity that will operate the newly established Gadeok New Airport authority. To provide a specific basis for selecting overseas airports for the future operation of Gadeok Airport, the Delphi survey method will be used to derive criteria. Currently, when examining the participation of local governments in regional airports, Gimhae International Airport is operated solely by the Korea Airports Corporation, receiving criticism for the lack of participation by the local government, such as Busan City, in decision-making related to airport operation and local reinvestment. Therefore, it is deemed necessary to provide early direction for improvement in this regard.

Tourist loyalty is created through good tourism service quality and the availability of tourism products. This study discussed the various attributes of tourism service quality, namely, tour agents, efficient personnel, accessible transportation, and information service quality. Whereas for tourism product availability attributes were varieties of product availability, wide selection of tour agents and tourist products, and wide variety of amenity services. As a general rule, the minimum is to have at least five times as many observations as the number of variables to be analyzed, and the more acceptable sample size would have a 10:1 ratio. A total of 424 questionnaires were returned, with 35 removed due to errors. Finally, 389 questionnaires respondents were used via accidental sampling method through the distribution of questionnaires to foreign tourists at Soekarno Hatta International Airport. In addition, AMOS 7.0 software is used to test models in confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) as well as hypothetical testing using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results showed that all hypotheses were accepted, except for the effect of tourism service quality on tourist loyalty in Indonesia. This research aims to contribute significantly to the existing knowledge of tourism, specifically from a foreign tourist perspective in Indonesia.
