Download or read book Why Domestic Tourism Will Have Increased Importance in the Post Covid19 Era Looking for Homegrown Solutions written by Merly Fiscal Arjona and published by . This book was released on 2023-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic tourism is similar to domestic travel in that most of its participants are leisure travellers. Consider day trippers, couples, families, sightseers, and others. The volume mentions that as hoteliers recover from COVID-19, this will be a significant market. In order to recover, countries like France and Germany, which have traditionally experienced high volumes of domestic tourism, will need to rely on it more than ever. While large-scale travel may be among the final aspects of society to recover from the 2020 Covid pandemic, increased domestic tourism is the primary indicator of recovery. Domestic tourism is expected to play a crucial role in the reconstruction of economies, and serve as a pointer for the wellness and security of countries as lockdowns and social distance restrictions worldwide ease. Nevertheless, the recovery will occur at various rates globally, therefore, domestic tourism will recover unpredictably. Some nations may quickly get their economy back on track, whereas others will struggle much longer.

Book Tourism in the Post Pandemic World

Download or read book Tourism in the Post Pandemic World written by Ms.Manuela Goretti and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-02-19 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This departmental paper analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on tourism in the Asia Pacific region, Latin America, and Caribbean countries. Many tourism dependent economies in these regions, including small states in the Pacific and the Caribbean, entered the pandemic with limited fiscal space, inadequate external buffers, and foreign exchange revenues extremely concentrated in tourism. The empirical analysis leverages on an augmented gravity model to draw lessons from past epidemics and finds that the impact of infectious diseases on tourism flows is much greater in developing countries than in advanced economies.

Book Global Tourism and COVID 19

Download or read book Global Tourism and COVID 19 written by Alan A. Lew and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive book focuses on how the COVID-19 pandemic is transforming travel and tourism, globally. Despite the devastation caused by COVID-19, authors argue that within the ongoing crisis, there is also an opportunity to positively transform the tourism sector in ways that contribute to a more hopeful future for tourism practitioners, tourists and host communities. As the world emerges from the shadow of COVID-19 there will not be a return to the "normal". Rather, the volume shares a vision of global transformation that is driven at least in part by the changing ways people in the post-COVID-19 era may travel and encounter each other and their environments. Individual chapters explore topics such as: regenerative economies, transformational travel, critical perspectives on pandemics and tourism, sustainable development and resilience post-COVID-19, re-discovering and re-localising tourism, global (im)mobilities, transforming tourism management, as well as new value systems for travel and tourism including the chance to strengthen social equity and social justice as tourism returns after COVID-19. In this edited volume, a series of senior and emerging scholars engage with debates on how to best contribute to more substantial, meaningful, and positive planetary shifts within the tourism industry. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal Tourism Geographies.

Book INNOVATIONS IN TOURISM  THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS

Download or read book INNOVATIONS IN TOURISM THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS written by Roik Oksana and published by International Science Group. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the sphere of tourism in Ukraine has been going through difficult times. The Covid-19 pandemic has become a challenge for the tourism industry, making domestic travel more popular in Ukraine, as it will take some time to resume international tourism. In the conditions of the coronavirus pandemic and the need to adhere to quarantine restrictions and social distance, it became expedient to develop such types of tourism as green (rural) and ecological tourism. To this end, the “Guidelines (Protocol) for the provision of rural green tourism services (rural hospitality) in the corona- and post-coronavirus period” were developed, which states that: “Within 2020 – the year of tourism development in rural areas, NGO Rural Green Tourism in Ukraine” in cooperation with the National Tourism Organization of Ukraine joined the global initiative of the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) #Safe travels. Experts of the Union and the EU Project Geographical Indications in Ukraine and partners developed a Protocol to adapt the work of farmsteads with priority to protect human health and effectively mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Its implementation will allow the owners of rural estates that provide rural green tourism services: to take effective practical measures to reduce the risk of coronavirus disease COVID-19 as owners of rural estates, their families, and tourists; to gain additional competitive advantage, guaranteeing the tourist increased attention to the protection of his health; to improve the quality of rural green tourism services (rural hospitality) taking into account the sanitary and hygienic requirements and the requirements of social distancing. The next terrible event for Ukraine was the war. On February 24, 2022, the Russian Federation launched a full-scale, aggressive war against Ukraine on the land, sea, and the air using units of the armed forces, heavy ground weapons, including long-range artillery, missiles, naval ships, and military aircraft. The invasion has already resulted in significant civilian casualties, mass destruction, and damage to Ukraine’s infrastructure and natural heritage. Russian troops are attacking peaceful Ukrainian towns and villages from various directions, including the temporarily occupied Donbas and Crimea and the north-eastern region. This is an act of war, an attack on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, and a gross violation of the UN Charter and fundamental norms and principles of international law. Russia’s military action is undoubtedly an unjustified and unprovoked act of aggression against independent and sovereign Ukraine, as well as a violation of all existing norms of international law on nature protection, sustainable development, humanitarian law, basic morals, and principles of human coexistence. In addition to the most obvious consequences of the war in many regions of Ukraine, such as deaths, destruction of homes, general destruction, and poverty, the war worsens the country’s economic situation, threatens the environment, and worsens social living conditions. Therefore, at the current stage of economic development and given the current situation in the world, it is important for the survival of businesses in the war in Ukraine is the search for modern methods and tools for managing business processes, which should be based on the principles of their adaptation to changing conditions innovative technologies. Service companies respond extremely quickly to changes and new challenges, which are characterized by a significant level of dynamism, diversification of offers in the services market, and fierce competition. Therefore, innovations are transformed into a decisive factor in determining new technologies for managing business processes of enterprises in the service sector of the regions, in particular the hotel and restaurant and tourism business. Henderson I. L., Avis M. and Tsui W. K. T., Wikhamn W., Armbrecht J. and Wikhamn B. R., Sipe L. J., Verreynne M. L., Williams A. M., Ritchie B. W., Gronum S. and Betts K. S., Thomas R. and Wood E. are considered the application of innovation potential and substantiation of economic need for innovations. Charkina T. Yu. Martseniuk L.V. Zadoia V.O. and Pikulina O.V., Smyrnov I., Liubitseva O., Kulinyak I., Zhigalo I., Yarmola K., Hrebeniuk H., Charkina T., Martseniuk L., Pikulina O. have proposed some solutions in the innovative management of enterprises and the formation of the technological component through the introduction of information systems and models, economic mechanism of sustainable tourism, marketing management of tourism enterprises, and organizational aspects of the tourism market, partially highlighting innovation strategy. The works of these authors are a significant contribution to the development of the theory of innovative management of tourism enterprises. However, today there are a limited number of publications on the development of innovations in tourism in wartime. The paper contains a review of various scientific approaches to definition of the term «innovation in tourism», to classifying innovations and evaluating the innovation activity of enterprises, to find out their applicability in the tourism industry. The author’s review of the literature sources allows for outlining the features of innovations in tourism, originating from their service character and the focus on improving interactions with consumer, for the best possible satisfaction of consumer needs, and for determining their role in increasing the competitiveness of enterprises in the tourism industry. In order to achieve the goal, the following tasks have been defined: to investigate the categorical apparatus of the concept of “innovation in tourism” (it will define the essence of this category); to offer a classification of types of innovations in the tourism business on the basis of the views of both domestic and foreign scholars; to provide a basic model for the development of innovations in the field of tourism services. The essence of the innovative approach in tourism is the creation of new and improvement of existing services, development of new markets, strategic business alliances, active introduction of modern information technology, new forms and methods of management. The effective use of innovations will lead to the creation of competitive tourism products and services both in the national and international markets. The expert evaluation study results of the innovation implementation state by tourism enterprises of the region are presented, the essence of which is the need to significantly expand and strengthen the innovation activity sphere, which should fulfil a connecting function between science, tourism business, state authorities and local governments. The practical application of such a proposal in the innovative development of the tourism sector will not only increase the competitiveness of the enterprise but also evaluate the feasibility of introducing new types of tourism products and services.

As we move hopefully toward the recovery phase and people begin to move around for business and pleasure, this book presents the reader with key information and insights in both traditional and emerging areas of tourist health, safety and wellbeing, recognising that the world is now shaped by this pandemic, bringing change, potentially enduring benefits and lasting legacies.

Book Tourism Before  During and After Corona

Download or read book Tourism Before During and After Corona written by Christian J. Jäggi and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International and domestic tourism changed not only as a result of the Corona pandemic, but even before. As a result of Covid-19, international and global tourism has temporarily collapsed in most countries, but in many countries - such as Austria or Switzerland - domestic tourism has increased. The big question is whether the slump in global tourism is temporary or whether an actual trend reversal is on the horizon. In favour of the former is the fact that growing middle classes in Asia, but also Latin America and Africa, have greater financial means and more and more people are vaccinated against Covid-19; in favour of the latter are the many ecological constraints and the fight against climate change, but also the emergence of new mutations in the Corona virus. Based on the development of tourism since the turn of the millennium, these and similar questions about tourism and its short- and medium-term perspectives will be discussed. The content Tourism - a brief history Economic importance of tourism Ecological consequences of tourism Tourism and infrastructure Everybody wants to travel - (almost) nobody wants the tourists Right to mobility? Approaches and new ideas The author Christian J. Jäggi, Dr. phil. cultural anthropologist and Dr. theologian, researches and publishes on economic, ecological and ethical topics.

Book Post Pandemic Sustainable Tourism Management

Download or read book Post Pandemic Sustainable Tourism Management written by Marko Koščak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-16 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism, as with many parts of the economy, is at a pause-reflect-rest stage in the post pandemic world. This book puts forward some positive and practical concepts for the reset stage in terms of pushing towards wholly sustainable tourism. The COVID-19 pandemic has been disastrous in terms of the loss of human life, the physical and mental strains placed on large numbers of populations across the globe who have been quarantined in their homes and in terms of the costs of dealing with the pandemic and supporting business and citizens through the period. Tourism has been comprehensively damaged, not only in advanced economies, but also in poorer developing economies where tourism provides a vital source of income and employment. The problem has been complicated by the shattering effect on mass tourism, which has been far more sensitive to the shutdown of travel and accommodation than ethical and responsible tourism activities focused at a local sustainable level. Therefore this book evaluates how the pandemic and economic decline affects ethical and responsible tourism - the type of tourism which sustains and develops local communities in a balanced way for the benefit of future generations. It reflects on the position the authors established in "Ethical & Responsible Tourism - managing sustainability in local tourism destinations" and then determines how ethically and responsibly focused tourism may adapt, develop and maintain safety for consumers in the post-virus world. This book will be essential reading for students, researchers and practitioners of tourism, environmental and sustainability studies.

Book Reasons to Support Post pandemic Inbound Tourism

Download or read book Reasons to Support Post pandemic Inbound Tourism written by Sungbae An and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the coronavirus pandemic is in sight, as the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced at the press conference held on September 14. As the borders gradually open, high expectations are formed of increasing international tourist arrivals and the revival of the tourism industry in Korea.General interest in Korean culture has greatly increased during the coronavirus pandemic. Under the border closure, Korean pop music, movies, and dramas became more popular on global online platforms. Coordination among cities and provinces is required to develop and differentiate experience goods. Timely investment in performance and accommodation infrastructure should go hand in hand.In the short term, however, the situation is not optimistic because travel costs are still high: (1) quarantine measures impede cross-border travel; (2) airfare is still high due to the bottleneck in the global supply chain; (3) cost competitiveness from foreign exchange rate is weak against other travel destinations.With the recently deteriorating balance of goods from a slowdown in global economic growth and high energy prices, overseas tourism draws attention for its role in the current account balance. It is time to reinforce the support in assessing the needs of overseas travelers, where priority has been given to domestic tourists during the pandemic.
