Tornadoes kill about 60 people in the U.S. every year and
cause billions of dollars of property damage.

SIGNS OF OUR TIMES
(The Vatican City has no airport, just a helipad used occasionally by the Pope)
• Vatican started flights to shrines
– In 2007 the Vatican launched a low-cost charter
flight service to transport pilgrims to holy sites
worldwide.
ld id
ƒ the inaugural flight went from Rome to Lourdes in France.
ƒ a small Italian airline, Mistral, provides the planes, with
the interiors decorated with sacred inscriptions such as:
– "I search for your face, Lord”.
ƒ Other destinations –
– Fatima in Portugal and Santiago di Compostela in Spain,
– the Holy Land, Poland and a Catholic shrine in Mexico.

SOME PATTERNS IN TOURISM
(Tourism is entering an age characterised by)
• moderating rates of growth
• intensified competition among destinations – smaller world
– competition – extreme travel / destinations
– new destinations coming to the market
ƒ Tadzikistan, Kazakstan, Montenegro, …
• a technology-driven marketplace (omnipotent IT)
– speeding up travel processes - all phases take less time, buying
decisions made at the last minute
– reservation systems
y
g
getting
g more p
popular
p
((internet))
ƒ any airline, hotel, etc.
– detailed information about consumer behaviour in destinations
ƒ database- relationship- marketing
Nov. 20th, 2008
Mário Passos Ascenção, PhD
Page 29
SOME PATTERNS IN TOURISM
• greater deregulation and privatisation, encouraging
market forces to operate
– investments from other sectors in the tourism sector
• a tourism sector increasingly dominated by a small
number of large
g multi-national enterprises
p
– still, growing number of small entrepreneurs
• an increasing number of tourist product types
competing for a fragmented market
– more tailoring in product/service design

SOME PATTERNS IN TOURISM
• more, but shorter trips

• 55+ more market (silver market)
• markets/segments: women, singles, gay, over-size,

SOME PATTERNS IN TOURISM
• from “segments”
segments to “tribes”;
tribes ;
– sub-cultures (B-boys / B-girls, Gothics, Manga, etc.)
• customers seeking novelty! finding extremes
(underground hotels, space tourism, etc.)

service

RED ALERT
• The Living Planet Index shows that wild species and
natural ecosystems are under pressure across all
biomes and regions of the world.
• The direct, anthropogenic threats to biodiversity are
often grouped under five headings:
– habitat loss, fragmentation or change, especially due to
agriculture
– overexploitation of species, especially due to fishing and
hunting
– pollution
– the spread of invasive species or genes
– climate change.
