Synopsis

"Transport for Tourism" assesses the effects of tourist travel and the challenges it poses for transport planners, providers and policy-makers in the 1990s. This book concerns the relationship between transport and tourism at an introductory level: the role of government policy; demand and supply relationships; quality control systems; health and sustainable transport systems; and environmental impact. These issues are illustrated through case studies on: transport in Bermuda; Singapore Airways; British Airways; the Channel Tunnel; and transport systems in Japan. The interdisciplinary approach draws on economics, geography and marketing to provide a comprehensive picture of a complex topic. "Transport for Tourism" should be a vital learning tool for students of tourism and transport options, both at undergraduate and diploma level.
