Tourism as a Driver of Growth in the Pacific: A Pathway to Growth & Prosperit...SW Associates, LLC
Tourism to the Pacific is increasing and will be a key driver of economic growth in the coming decade. Yet despite more visitors to the Pacific, tourism growth is not inevitable for all countries in the region.
This brief identifies the trends driving this increase. To secure and sustainably harness the benefits of this growth, this brief recommends that Pacific island countries create an enabling environment for tourism through interventions in four areas:
tourism policy, strategy, and the regulatory environment; infrastructure; human resources; and product development and marketing.
Global tourism exceeded growth expectations in the first half of 2013, with nearly 25 million more international arrivals than the previous year. Asia, Europe, and South Asia led this growth. China is now the largest source of outbound tourists. International tourism spending is also expected to grow faster than previously estimated. In Latin America, travel and tourism directly contributed over $138 billion to GDP in 2012 and supported over 5.8 million jobs. Key trends include the rising importance of millennials, seniors, social media, luxury travel, eco-friendliness, and multigenerational travel. Quality is valued over savings, and health is a top factor influencing travel decisions.
Hospitality and Tourism is one of the world’s largest growing industries and it is a source
of income for many nations. Being people oriented business, Hospitality industry also gives several jobs that has helped rejuvenate local economies. Though, like other kinds of development, hospitality and tourism can also cause difficulties such as loss of cultural heritage, social dislocation, ecological degradation and economic dependence. In Nepal, the industry of hospitality and tourism is growing at a skyrocket pace as well as it also has tremendous probable development of tourism because of its unique cultural and natural heritage. Concerning this, the tourism policy has been created with a framework of: increasing foreign currency, augmenting national income and productivity, improving regional imbalances, creating employment opportunities and projecting the image of Nepal more aggressively in the international arena with the diversification and development of tourism and travel industries.

An examination of kenya’s outbound tourism to ugandanAlexander Decker
This document summarizes a study that examined Kenya's outbound tourism to Ugandan destinations. The study found that the majority (94.8%) of Kenyans visiting Uganda were attracted by religion/faith-based, culture/heritage-based and historical/political-based attractions, rather than nature-based attractions (5.2%). Despite Uganda promoting its wildlife attractions like gorilla conservation areas, most Kenyan visitors were drawn to other cultural attractions and the Ugandan people's hospitality. The study recommends that Kenya improve its tourism marketing and leverage its rich history to attract more domestic tourists.
The document discusses tourism in India based on a dissertation project. It provides statistics on tourism's contribution to India's GDP and employment from 2011-2021. Specifically, it states that tourism's direct contribution to GDP is expected to rise from INR1,570.5bn in 2011 to INR3,414.8bn in 2021. Total tourism employment is forecasted to rise from 37,655,000 jobs in 2011 to 47,480,000 jobs by 2021. Visitor exports and investment in tourism are also projected to experience significant growth in this period.
Role of tourism industry in generating foreign exchangeDharmik
The document discusses the role of tourism industry in generating foreign exchange. It begins by defining foreign exchange as money from one country being exchanged for another, enabling international transactions. It then discusses India's growing foreign exchange reserves. Tourism is considered a large foreign exchange earner when foreign tourists spend money in India. The tourism industry is the largest export industry in the world and is a major earner of foreign exchange for many countries. India has significant tourism potential and witnessed over 2.75 million foreign tourist arrivals in 2001, with the industry being a large employment generator.
Tourism Ireland aims to increase tourism to Ireland from international markets like the US. While visitor numbers have increased, Ireland receives far fewer visitors annually than competitors like Spain and Italy. American millennials represent an important target market as their numbers and travel are increasing. However, millennials have unique preferences, seeking authentic cultural experiences, good food, opportunities for socialization and user-generated reviews influence their decisions. Tourism Ireland should develop a marketing strategy specifically targeting millennials online and on social media to attract more young American travelers to Ireland.

Effect Of COVID-19 On Global Tourism The Full Report (September Update)ArabiaHorizonsTours
In 2020, the tourism industry has suffered from a hiatus as many countries were locked down because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This caused devastating economic consequences in countries highly dependent on tourism. In this report, we examine the current trends as countries reopen and what effect this will have on the tourism industry.
Political instability can significantly impact tourism. The document discusses how war, coups, terrorism and civil unrest can negatively influence tourists' perception of risk at a destination through media coverage. This leads to decreases in tourist arrivals, revenues, and related economic benefits. Examples from countries like China, Fiji, Mexico, Yugoslavia, the Middle East, and North/South Korea demonstrate tourism declines caused by these political events. The conclusion calls for tourism education to incorporate more discussion of international politics and its effects.
The Indian tourism industry contributes significantly to the Indian economy through foreign exchange earnings, employment generation, and linkages with other sectors. India receives over 6 million foreign tourist arrivals annually and is poised to become the second fastest growing tourism economy in the world. However, India has untapped potential given its rich cultural and religious heritage across its towns, villages, hills, and other natural attractions. Challenges like infrastructure and political risks must be addressed to further develop the tourism industry in India.
Visitor receipts for travel and tourism in the Philippines declined 14.1% in September 2016 compared to September 2015. Korea was the top spending market in September 2016, with estimated receipts of $5.06 billion pesos. Visitor arrivals increased 7.46% in September 2016 compared to the previous year, reaching 422,943 arrivals. The majority of visitors arrived from East Asia, comprising 57.14% of total arrivals. The top visitor-generating markets from January to September 2016 were Korea, the United States, China, Japan, and Australia. Several European countries also saw substantial visitor growth such as Germany, France, and Spain.
The tourism sector in India is growing rapidly and is an important part of the economy. However, there are still some problems holding it back from reaching its full potential. Unplanned development has negatively impacted some popular destinations and there is a lack of development in certain regions. Additionally, many Indians are choosing to travel abroad rather than within India. Looking ahead, the government and industry are taking steps to promote sustainable growth through diversification and improved infrastructure. If developed properly while protecting the environment and local cultures, tourism can provide significant economic opportunities for India.

This document discusses modes of travel and transportation services in Bangladesh from 1850 to the present. It outlines several eras of transportation: pre-industrial travel using bullock carts and horses; the railway system era beginning in the 1850s; the express travel era where rail expanded; the automobile era starting in the 1920s; the modern tourism era of 1945-1974 with increased air travel; and the current post-mobility adjustment era with alternative transportation. Modes of travel discussed include railways, water transport on rivers, automobiles, buses, and telecommunications aiding the tourism industry.
This document provides an overview of different modes of tourist transport and their role in tourism. It discusses rail, water, road, and air transport. For each mode, it describes the historical development and key characteristics. It also discusses the role of organizations like ICAO and IATA in regulating international air transport. The document is divided into chapters with sections on topics like economics of transport, characteristics of different modes, and regulatory bodies.

This document discusses different modes of tourist transportation in India. It outlines road, water, rail, and air transport systems and their roles in facilitating tourism. Road transport plays a vital role in connecting remote areas and is relatively cheaper. Water transport, while oldest, still has relevance for environmental and economic reasons. Rail transport operates the fourth largest network globally and offers luxury tourist trains. Air transport is primarily for passenger transport and its expansion is crucial for tourism growth given India's large size and diversity. Faster and more efficient transportation is essential for increasing domestic and international tourism by linking attractions and accommodating time-limited tourists.

Tourism relies on various modes of transportation to move tourists between destinations. The main modes are air, rail, road, and water transport. Each has advantages and disadvantages related to speed, cost, safety, convenience, and other factors that tourists consider when choosing which mode best suits their needs and preferences. While air transport is the fastest, it is also the most expensive. Road transport is cost-effective but can face traffic delays. Water transport is cheap but slow, and more risky than other modes. Tourists weigh these tradeoffs to select the optimal transportation for their specific travel requirements and circumstances.

Tourism has become a major global economic sector and driver of development. International tourist arrivals grew 5% in 2013 to reach over 1 billion for the second year, and are expected to continue growing to 1.8 billion by 2030.

2013 Travel&Tourism Trends from World Travel MarketDavid Mora
Informe elaborado por EuroMonitor que recoge las principales tendencias y previsiones para el sector turístico, presentado en la World Travel Market 2013.
The World Travel Market Global Trends Report 2013 highlights emerging trends in the global travel industry. Key findings include:
- In the Americas, the "PANK" (Professional Aunt, No Kids) demographic is emerging as a new target market as the travel industry caters more to childless women.
- In the UK, the website Routehappy is measuring customer satisfaction through "happiness scores" for airlines, providing a unique travel happiness index.
- Across Europe, peer-to-peer travel services are seeing strong growth in offering authentic experiences at affordable prices.
Global tourism at a glance provides key insights:
- The majority of international travel takes place within a traveler's own region. Emerging economies in Asia, Central/Eastern Europe, Middle East, Africa and Latin America have shown fast growth in outbound tourism.
- Strong global economic growth in 2018, low airfares, and increased visa facilitation contributed to a 6% growth in international passenger traffic. The number of connected city pairs by air has more than doubled over 20 years.
- Consumer travel trends in 2018 included a quest for authentic local experiences to share on social media, a focus on health and wellness, and rising awareness of sustainability issues in travel.
