Technologies

The number of international tourists in (1950) was (25) million tourists and this number rose to more than (650) million tourists in (1997). This is mainly attributed to the great technological development achieved in the world, and technology can affect tourism demand from two angles:
A. The impact of technology on the transportation factor: Transportation methods have developed significantly after World War II, and have become characterized by abundance, diversity, capacity, comfort, safety and relatively low costs. It has become possible to transport the largest possible number of tourists in a short time. This technological development has included land, sea and air transportation, and the distance has increased, and it has become possible to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a time in which this development has led to the cancellation of the Concorde factor not exceeding four hours, and advertisements say, have breakfast with your family in Europe and have lunch with your friends in America, and thus technology has reduced the burden of travel and its risks, and this has had a positive impact on tourism demand. Through the use of machines and equipment.
