It is worthwhile from time to time to attempt to disentangle the main trends form the mass of statistics, facts and reports about the international tourist movement and try to discover the general direction of the development of the industry
Tourist aspects of transport
A great deal has been written about the economics of transport in recent years. Most of the views expressed, however, deal with transport as an essential industrial factor in the national economy. The importance of the contribution of the transport system to the national economy is very often held up as an end in itself, so much so that the normal considerations of competitive efficiency and meeting consumer demand are not applied. It is quite tr…
Rivalry between sea and air on the North Atlantic
Perhaps the most interesting development in the tourist trade, certainly in passenger transport after the war, has taken place on the North Atlantic, now the best‐developed long distance route in the world. It is surprising to think that before the war there was not one single regular passenger service by air between Europe and North America and the entire traffic was dependent on sea transport. From the figures quoted below the remarkable progre…
The British travel market
In an article printed in “The Tourist Review” a few years ago, we gave a general analysis of the British Travel Market. A sample survey carried out by the BTHA into the market for holiday‐making in Britain by British residents has brought to light most interesting and valuable data characterising British travel to the continent. We are much indebted to the BTHA for permission to analyse this survey—we hope that the results which we give below wil…
The British tourist market
Most tourist experts agree that travel is a two‐way business as an international trade. While every country is anxious to increase its exports, it is in fact equally important to think about imports. The Tourist Review has published a number of interesting articles about tourist promotion and, together with other journals, has given a great deal of information on tourism as an export. This article, however, deals with Britain as a tourist market.…
The outlook for tourism
Tourism grew up in laissez faire liberalism and has suffered ever since from the era of control and planning. This suggests a need for a reassessment of the place of the tourist industry in the present economic state of the world
The demand for travel in the national economy
Fundamental notions of economic theory based on a static approach are falling into disuse, and the new dynamic economics is hampered in its progress by the belated development of social research and industrial psychology. In a sense, economists have hardly had time to digest the revolutionary Keyoensian doctrines, but already find that they are out‐moded. Particularly embarrassing for present day problems is the fact that there has not been suffi…
A tourist currency
The revolution in transport during the 19th century and the great rise of personal incomes in the countries of Western Europe multiplied a hundredfold the numbers of people travelling for business and pleasure outside their own country. It was not long, however, before governments realised that this expansion in the movement of people was accompanied by movement of money across frontiers. Travellers, particularly the pleasure travellers, spent mo…
