Globalisation in tourism sector

Globalisation is takes place in different parts of the world, in both developed and developing countries, which leads to ease of travel and global mobility of labourers, technology and hospitality services. In the recent years, due to globalisation, the tourism industry is growing rapidly and it leads to ease of travel and global mobility. The tourism sector is flourishing in such an era of globalisation, where the stakeholders are taking active part to expand the service worldwide and explore more adventurous destinations to retain the audiences across the international markets (Peters and Vellas, 2019). The major stakeholders of the tourism sector are such as travellers, business owners, customers, and tourists, who are engaged efficiently with the business and activities of tourism industry. Globalisation is the major reason for such growth in tourism sector in the recent years where there are huge numbers of travellers who try to explore more destinations worldwide. Henceforth, Globalisation has been observed to lead a high demand for hospitality services and goods in tourism sector, as well as increased overall growth of economy (Brondoni, 2016).

For such globalisation and digitalisation, there is great transfer of labourers and technology which influence the business firms to expand their services across the globe and run their hospitality operational activities sustainably. Globalisation has crucial impacts on the supply chain, where the transfer of skill and technology influence the firms in tourism sector to develop green supply chain to manage the international operations. The transportation system has been upgraded which further enhance smooth transaction of necessary goods and services in the hospitality sector (Timothy, 2019). The population trend and cultural perspective are also developed where the individuals can understand each other’s culture and there is increasing numbers of population who are attracted to explore more destinations around the globe. There is an appropriate safety measure for which the tourism business is growing ethically, where the customers are feeling safe and secured to travel the world. Additionally, technology becomes more efficient than before, also new faster ways of communication and transportation are invented, which makes it easy for the tourists and business agencies to communicate across international borders, as well as moving around efficiently (Dwyer and Čavlek, 2019). There is also advancement in technology where the audiences can gather vast range information and book their destinations as per their choice and preferences through online activities.
