Resumo: | Nowadays, technology has become imperative and it means much more that we could ever imagined. For tourism, it is no exception. The focus point of this work relies on understanding the use of technology in a tourism context and it questions, somehow, its real use in the actual tourism context, at the same time as it intends to understand what fails in the use of technology and the possible consequences of these constraints. The knowledge acquired and developed by Dr Barbara Nuhofer (2014) and Dr Niklas Eriksson (2013) in their studies was an asset to this study, since this area of research is still little explored. It was conducted a survey, through which it was found that although the technology has a lot of potential, during the trip the technology is mostly used to share content and communicate. It was also found that several failures related to the technology occur, and have consequences such as: stress, loss of time, not reached expectations, among others. This study made it possible to understand that there is a need to study the state of technology in tourism and intends to alert the industry in order to create the conditions to make the most of technology in this context. |

Travelling with technology. When technology failsViajar com a tecnologia. Quando a tecnologia falhaNowadays, technology has become imperative and it means much more that we could ever imagined. For tourism, it is no exception. The focus point of this work relies on understanding the use of technology in a tourism context and it questions, somehow, its real use in the actual tourism context, at the same time as it intends to understand what fails in the use of technology and the possible consequences of these constraints. The knowledge acquired and developed by Dr Barbara Nuhofer (2014) and Dr Niklas Eriksson (2013) in their studies was an asset to this study, since this area of research is still little explored. It was conducted a survey, through which it was found that although the technology has a lot of potential, during the trip the technology is mostly used to share content and communicate. It was also found that several failures related to the technology occur, and have consequences such as: stress, loss of time, not reached expectations, among others. This study made it possible to understand that there is a need to study the state of technology in tourism and intends to alert the industry in order to create the conditions to make the most of technology in this context.Hoje em dia a tecnologia tornou-se imprescindível e significa muito mais do que em tempos se poderia imaginar. Para o turismo, não é exceção. O objetivo deste estudo é compreender a utilização da tecnologia em contexto turístico e questiona a sua real utilização no contexto turístico atual, ao mesmo tempo que pretende compreender o que falha na utilização da tecnologia e as possíveis consequências resultantes destes constrangimentos. Os conhecimentos adquiridos e desenvolvidos por Dra Barbara Neuhofer (2014) e Dr Niklas Eriksson (2013) nos seus estudos foram uma mais-valia para este estudo, na medida em que esta área de investigação ainda é pouco explorada. Foi realizado um inquérito por questionário, através do qual se verificou que, apesar de a tecnologia ter bastante potencial, durante a viagem a tecnologia é maioritariamente utilizada para partilhar conteúdos e comunicar. Verificou-se também que ocorrem diversas falhas1 relacionadas com a tecnologia, e que têm consequências tais como: stress, perda de tempo, expectativas não atingidas, entre outras. Este estudo permitiu compreender que existe a necessidade de estudar o estado da tecnologia no turismo e pretende alertar a indústria, para que sejam criadas condições para que se possa tirar o maior proveito da tecnologia neste contexto.
