Download or read book Overbooked written by Elizabeth Becker and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-02-23 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Travel is no longer a past-time but a colossal industry, arguably one of the biggest in the world and second only to oil in importance for many poor countries. One out of 12 people in the world are employed by the tourism industry which contributes $6.5 trillion to the world's economy. To investigate the size and effect of this new industry, Elizabeth Becker traveled the globe. She speaks to the Minister of Tourism of Zambia who thinks licensing foreigners to kill wild animals is a good way to make money and then to a Zambian travel guide who takes her to see the rare endangered sable antelope. She travels to Venice where community groups are fighting to stop the tourism industry from pushing them out of their homes, to France where officials have made tourism their number one industry to save their cultural heritage; and on cruises speaking to waiters who earn $60 a month--then on to Miami to interview their CEO. Becker's sharp depiction reveals travel as a product; nations as stewards. Seeing the tourism industry from the inside out, the world offers a dizzying range of travel options but very few quiet getaways"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. travel and tourism sector, the main economic and employment engine in a number of states, suffered a steep decline in 2008 and 2009 as the nation sank into recession. Though the United States remained the world's top travel destination by dollar value, spending by foreign visitors in the country plunged 15% in 2009. Travel and tourism, which account for 6% of U.S. employment, began to rebound in 2010, but there have been concerns about a possible decline in business along the Gulf Coast due to the April 2010 BP oil spill. This new book examines the U.S. travel and tourism industry today and the challenges and issues for the future

This book was released on 2015-05-13 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The travel and tourism industry is a major economic driver and job creator in this country. It generates trillions of dollars in economic output, making it our top services export, and supports more than 14 million American jobs. When international travelers come to the United States, they spend an average of $4,400 on food, lodging, transportation, and entertainment, which is directly infused into local economies. Over the past decade, international visitors to the United States have increased from 40 million to nearly 70 million. The United States holds the leading global share of international traveler spending. We are now seeing double digit growth in the number of visitors from China and Brazil, the only two countries in America's top 10 markets that are not members of the Visa Waiver Program. While international arrivals are increasing, our overall share of the global market is decreasing. This market is growing due to the rise of tourism and new emerging economies, so we must be proactive to grow our leading market share.
