Tourism has become one of the world‘s biggest industries. It accounts for 11% of global GDP and employs around 200 million people. Estimates suggest that 590 million people travel abroad every year, sometimes several times, not only for holidays but also for business, and for personal, religious or health reasons. In an increasingly dangerous world, especially with an ever present threat of terrorist attack, people may not be willing to travel as much as they used to. After September 11th, there are fewer Americans travelling, which has been disastrous for some global tourist economies. The travel industry recovers very quickly but will this always be the case in the future?
