Subject: IJCHM - Wishing you happy holidays and a wonderful new year
Dear Marija,
We greatly appreciate your ongoing support and contribution to the International Journal of Contemporary Hospitality Management (IJCHM). As expected, 2014 has been another very busy and successful year for IJCHM. According to the 2013 Journal Citation Reports®, IJCHM's impact factor rose from 1.266 to 1.623. This is indeed a great accomplishment, which places IJCHM's among the top six hospitality and tourism journals and the top two hospitality journals globally. According to GoogleScholar Metrics for 2014, IJCHM is ranked 6th among all hospitality and tourism journals and 2nd among all hospitality journals according to h5-index and h5-median. Reflecting these accomplishments, we have been observing substantial increases in manuscript submissions to IJCHM. Compared to 280 submissions in 2012 and 580 submissions in 2013, as of December 23, 2014, we have received 642 submissions to IJCHM through Manuscript Central in 2014. Recognizing the increased number of manuscript submissions, starting from 2016, IJCHM will have 12 issues per year. Our paper review turnaround time is about 6 weeks and our acceptance rate is currently about 10%. Certainly without your time, contribution and ongoing support, we could not have achieved these outcomes.
On behalf of the editorial team, let me take this opportunity to thank you for your ongoing support to IJCHM and wish you happy holidays and a wonderful new year. Warm regards and best wishes.
Prof Fevzi Okumus
Editor-in-Chief of IJCHM
