Pattern on the observed surface

The panel is top-heavy

The panel is top-heavy: the top 2 actors together hold more than the remaining 3 combined, and the top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 2 combined. Below IYC, the 4 sources behind IYC sit between 5.29 and 9.20 percentage points behind it, forming a compressed trailing cluster. The surface mixes focused sources with a social platform — facebook.com — which is unusual for a niche destination market. Despite this concentration at the top, no single actor commands a decisive share of AI citations on this market across the observed window.

Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy · Saint Barthelemy · AI citation · September 14–20, 2026

IYC holds the rank-1 position on the AI Overview citation rail for Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy, yet the presence of facebook.com at the fourth position signals that AI Overviews draw on user-generated and social content alongside focused sources when constructing answers about yacht charters in Saint-Barthélemy. The surface composition — four focused sources and one social platform — frames a citation rail where the AI engine's sourcing logic does not confine itself to specialist domains alone.
