# Tourism and Hospitality journal rankings by citations

The 10 tracked tourism and hospitality journals ranked by 2-year mean citedness, with their h-index, i10-index and papers and citations in 2025. 2-year mean citedness is OpenAlex's count of citations per paper a journal published in the two previous years, an open counterpart to the journal impact factor (which counts only Web of Science citations); the h-index and i10-index cover all its papers. The figures come from OpenAlex (CC0) and are read again monthly.
