Good article. It is unfortunate that over the last ten years, the travel industry has had to handle terrorism, SARS, tsunamis, bird flu virus, swine flu, along with the first ever true global downturn. Through it all the industry has proven to be effective, resilient and dynamic, finding new ways to deal with difficulty. There are generally fresh issues and opportunities to which the market must again adapt and act in response.
