Conclusion
From the Paper "Given the Chilean government's new desire to address historical inequities in the nation, and its relatively strong economy and currency which would mitigate some of the risks in embarking upon these new ventures, Chile offers itself as a nation not simply of scenic beauty, but of attractive investment opportunities. The nation and the region are changing, and so is the hospitality industry. Because of its varied nature, offering a site for local business as well as a potential place for adventure travel or 'off the beaten path' personal enrichment, Chile offers a wealth of unusual investment opportunities for the Hilton Corporation."

Conclusion
From the Paper "Success in the hospitality industry increasingly demands an understanding of many other aspects of popular culture and trends. The term "lifestyle hotel" that has now been adopted by a certain kind of brand name accommodation says it all. Meant as a take off on the "boutique hotel" it carries even further the idea that hospitality is about how people live, and what they want out of life. The personal touches of the lifestyle and boutique hotels, lodges, resorts, and other accommodations speak to the almost hyper-individuality of today's traveler - whether businessperson or tourist. This hyper-individualism is a feature of much of contemporary culture. The hospitality industry must permit itself to be directed by the same powerful forces that have shaped - and dramatically transformed - modern society. The old communal world that existed prior to the social and cultural revolutions of the 1960s has produced a new ethos, one that seemingly shares little with the community-based standards of an earlier day."

From the Paper "In 1998 Thailand recorded visitor arrivals totalling 7.76 million which was an increase of 7.53 percent from 1997 and arrivals increased 11.14 percent over 1998 totals in 1999. Major realignment has taken place in Thailand's marketing plans where advertising budgets were cut and promotional offices abroad have been closed. New markets have been tapped as well as new forms of distribution which had as its' focus direct contact between the buyers and sellers in the tourism market. Stated is "...an increasing trend toward partnerships and pooling of resources as a means of maximizing the promotional dollar by integrating all the stakeholders from transportation and commerce in health and retail..."

Vancouver and Tourism, 2007. This paper explores the successful tourism industry in Vancouver, British Columbia. 1,954 words (approx. 7.8 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 62.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper discusses how the city of Vancouver, in British Columbia, is a vibrant commercial and cultural center and it offers all the attractions of a major metropolitan area. The paper portrays how nearby Vancouver Island is a place of stunning natural beauty, with an appeal to the eco-traveler and outdoor enthusiast. The paper explains how the growth of tourism went hand in hand with the development of an increasingly urban society. Places like Vancouver Island offered a tourist a wild and rugged atmosphere that was fast disappearing in the vicinities of major Eastern cities.
From the Paper "Tourism is a major industry in almost all parts of the globe. Many developing nations exact the lion's share of their income from foreign guests, while in developed countries, like Canada, tourism can be an equally lucrative source of revenue. In a post-industrial nation, tourism adds to the economic mix, diversifying array of service sector jobs. The Island of Vancouver, in British Columbia, is already a high growth area that attracts large numbers of new residents each year, and is a magnet for business investment and development. Tourists, too, find the region immensely appealing."

The Virgin Islands and Tourism, 2007. This paper discusses the Virgin Islands and looks at the impact of tourism. 807 words (approx. 3.2 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 28.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract In this article the writer discusses that tourism, especially in an ecologically sensitive area such as the Virgin Islands, brings with it both positive as well as negative influences and impacts. The writer notes that the central question that needs to be asked is whether the islands can withstand the increasing tide of tourism and the attrition of its ecological structure. The writer points out that the fact that the islands are economically dependent on tourism means that a balance has to be found between a vibrant tourist industry and ecological sustainability. The writer concludes that taking into account the sensitivity of the area one cannot be complacent about the impact of tourism on these islands.
From the Paper "However, ecologists and other experts are emphatic in their view that there are also real and potential negative factors that impact on the ecological and environmental health of these islands. These include aspects such as over-crowding, environmental problems, destruction of the reefs as well as social and cultural problems that may result from alien influences brought from outside the islands."
"Furthermore, experts also warn of the potential chaos if tourism is left "unmanaged" and solely at the mercy of market forces. An example of what is meant by management is the control of the number of visitors in relation to the available infrastructure."

Bilateral Air Transport Agreements, 2007. This paper explores bilateral air transport agreements and their benefits. 2,572 words (approx. 10.3 pages), 8 sources, MLA, $ 77.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper explains that a bilateral air transport agreement (ATA) is a convention signed by two countries by which they allow one another unrestricted civil aviation within their national boundaries. They grant each other rights to transport and take on and off, passengers, mail and cargo on their air route and territory. The paper discusses how such an agreement has both positive and negative effects, but the paper reveals that the positive outnumber the negative ones and make the contract beneficial for the development of the airline industry, economy, tourism and international relationships. The paper explains that the majority of the bilateral air service agreements must have been beneficial for both parties, since once they expired, new alliances were negotiated and formed.
Outline:
Executive Summary
Opinions and Arguments in Favor of the ATA
Rights Granted to the Parties by the ATA
Protection Issues

Monopoly

War and Natural Calamities
Opinions and Arguments Against ATA

Conclusions
From the Paper "There are two main reasons that support the forming of bilateral air transport agreements. First, the governments of the countries involved in the alliance believe that an international agreement and partnership could help protect themselves from numerous enemies and unfair competition.
"The second argument has a rather administrative nature and it regards the air transport companies and the travelers. In this order of ideas, the airline companies would be granted access to several airports and would be able to compete on the air services market by promoting lower prices and higher quality. Clients would be able to choose from a wider range of air transport providers the company that best met their financial and quality demands. This way, customers would be able to choose "the lowest prices that are not discriminatory.""

British Landmarks, 2007. An examination of the history of a number of British landmarks. 1,240 words (approx. 5.0 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 42.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper describes a number of British landmarks - it mentions the location, a little of the history and the uses of the place and describes how its use has changed in the present day. The paper discusses St. Paul's Cathedral, the Houses of Parliament, Globe Theater, the change of the Guard in Buckingham Palace, The Tower of London, Oxford, Stratford-on-Avon, Runnymede and Stonehenge.
From the Paper " Stratford-on-Avon (Wikipedia 2006, AllRefer Encyclopedia 2005) is a constituency, which is represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It is a town and a district in Warwickshire in central England on the Avon River, which owes its fame to the greatest English playwright, William Shakespeare. A gabled building on Henley street is believed to have been his birthplace, purchased in 1597. Most of the structures and places in Stratford connected with his life were bought in the 19th century, such as the Edward VI's Grammar School, where Shakespeare was believed to have attended; the Shakespeare Institute of the University of Birmingham and the Shakespeare Center built on the same street in 1964 (AllRefer, Wikipedia)."

Into Thin Air, 2007. This paper discusses the dangers of the tourism mentality in dangerous expeditions, while examining the book 'Into Thin Air' by Jon Krakauer. 1,611 words (approx. 6.4 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 52.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract In this essay, the writer deals with the related ethical considerations when human endeavor, combined with the acceptance of the danger and risks involved in the endeavor, turn into a tourist outing. The writer notes that a quest for Everest involves a strong statistical chance of loss of life and discusses whether climbing Mount Everest should be considered a tourist venture. This essay alludes to the problems with too many climbers making the attempt at the same time resulting in over-crowding. The writer believes, as Krakauer does, that there should be a set of guidelines to prevent over crowding on the summit to assure a safe climb and return, or at least as much as is possible. The writer concludes that a fine balance between economic and ethical considerations, a healthy respect for a culture different from Western sensibilities, and a desire to take personal responsibility will ensure that there are fewer tragedies on Mount Everest.
From the Paper "Better equipment, better organization, experienced guides have made attempts on Everest easier. While in the above 8000 meter altitude, also know as the Death Zone, rescue is almost impossible, with the odds of medical problems exponentially higher, better communication facilities and satellite-based weather services have improved odds of making it up and down the mountain. This has resulted in a sense of complacency among would-be adventurers who often attempt to climb the highest peak in the world with little or no mountaineering skills and even lesser respect for the mountain."

Oil and Tourism, 2006. A discussion regarding the importance of tourism to the oil-producing nations of the Middle East. 2,730 words (approx. 10.9 pages), 11 sources, MLA, $ 81.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses how Middle Eastern countries like the United Arab Emirates, who are so rich in oil, still depend on tourism to boost their economy. The paper takes a look at how the petroleum producing and exporting nations of the Arabian Peninsula recognize that their countries are growing. And, as their populations expand, oil does not generate the same amount of wealth per-capita as it once did. The paper further discusses how terrorism and catastrophic events such as those of September 11, 2001 conjure up images of potentially devastating attacks on existing oilfields and facilities.
From the Paper "Yet the infrastructure of tourism demands a great many instances of high capital investment. The capital-labor ratio is high compared to such businesses as insurance or real estate. Tourist accommodations - luxury hotels especially - require a high ratio of staff to consumer. The same goes for restaurants, shopping malls, and entertainment complexes - all of which are necessary to provide the services expected by international travelers. Nevertheless, while hotels and restaurants, for example, provide a return on investment well below the actual funds invested, other industries that bear subsidiary relationships to tourism and hospitality are especially remunerative. Trade, construction, and even handicrafts, all provide returns far in excess of one hundred percent. Each one of these fields can respond directly to a growth in tourism. Construction workers build the hotels, restaurants, and malls that cater to travelers and locals alike, while handicrafts have always been part of the stock-in-trade of the tourism industry. Handicrafts contribute to the "local color" and to foreign perceptions of the people of the United Arab Emirates. The relationship between trade and tourism is somewhat more complex. But it begins with the kinds of business conventions, sporting and cultural events that are adjuncts to many a traveler's visits to a foreign city or nation. Businesspeople can discover Dubai as tourists, and vice-versa. "

Outsourcing Plastic Surgery, 2006. A discussion on the pricing dynamics of outsourcing plastic surgery with a focus on "the bundling of surgery" with safaris in Africa. 972 words (approx. 3.9 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 34.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses consumer behavior dynamics that are starting to emerge from the pervasive outsourcing of services. The paper particularly focuses on the outsourcing of plastic surgery and describes the way in which consumers from wealthier countries fly to South Africa and combine surgery with safari, in order to receive cheaper, but quality services.
From the Paper "For any business model or even the strategies that support them to survive, there has to be more of a balance between the 4 Ps of marketing which include promotion, place or distribution, and product in addition to price. In fact price is the most volatile and over-used of differentiators in many companies and entire industries. This has been exacerbated by global outsourcing strategies in many industries, with many looking for the 40% reduction in costs to justify moving their services spending, manufacturing operations, or both offshore. Yet pricing cannot sustain a business model for more than several quarters, even in the most commoditized of industries, according to research completed by Marn, Roegner, and Zawada of McKinsey and Company (The Power of Pricing, Pages 27 - 36)."

Tourism / Hospitality and Travel Marketing, 2006. An analysis of the tourism environment and hospitality marketing industry as a strong factor in globalization. 2,505 words (approx. 10.0 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 76.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract Tourism is one of the world's largest and fastest growing industries. The paper discusses how the World Tourism Organization (WTO) views tourism and its defining feature. It also mentions the poverty and tourism. The importance that the role of marketing plays in tourism is also examined; hospitality and marketing depend on one another. The role of transportation is also analyzed. The paper concludes that the tourism environment and hospitality marketing industry will always remain a strong factor in globalization, even in light of disasters that can negatively influence vacation and travel.
From the Paper "In recent years, the comprehensive atmosphere of tourism has undergone extensive changes worldwide in comparison to tourism during decades of the past. The traditional face of tourism has been exposed to numerous acts of terrorism, and even more recently, historical natural disasters. Although these recent tragedies have significantly altered tourism, the tourism and hospitality sector nevertheless remain as one of the largest components of the global economy. Even in recent years, the growth rate of tourism supersedes that of most other goods and services. As a result of this rapid growth, the profile of tourists has changed as consumers apparently have become more experienced, more demanding, and more likely to treat tourism purchases in very much the same way as they do any other item of consumption (Baum & Moudambi, 1999). The globalization of communications transport and technology has also created a new environment for tourism's economic and social planning. This has led to new tourism policy formulations and recommendations both by and for tourism professionals. This paper will discuss a comprehensive understanding of such elements of tourism as outlined above."

Pulmonary Embolism and Air Travel, 2006. Comparing information from web sites on pulmonary embolism. 1,145 words (approx. 4.6 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 39.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper is written in the first person and compares information found on three sites on the Internet about pulmonary embolism. The first website is more oriented at the seasonal effects of long flights and pulmonary embolism. The second website is a news website with an article about pulmonary embolism and air travel. The third website stresses the need for knowing more about pulmonary embolism and the environment in the airplane. The author draws conclusions and recommendations from the websites and checks with the New English Journal of Medicine's detailed study about the distance traveled by air and the number of patients who developed the condition to confirm the findings.
From the Paper "My son and daughter-in-law had made plans for France. They landed at the airport and their daughter started to experience chest pains. The emergency unit at the airport checked her and told them something about it probably being pulmonary embolism. They took her to the hospital and my daughter-in-law called me to ask me about pulmonary embolism. I checked the search engines hoping to get directed to authentic information on the net about this. I came across three websites that seemed authentic and derived information from there and compared them."

Dubai and The Third Millennium, 2006. A look at the architectural restructuring of Dubai and the rigorous restructuring of its whole economy. 3,609 words (approx. 14.4 pages), 12 sources, APA, $ 100.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper reviews the history of Dubai and discusses how the current architectural restructuring of Dubai fits the mold of the emerging global economy of the third millennium by possessing the capacity to generate substantial profit from its modern wonders of the world.
From the Paper "Economically, more gradual changes have been coming about since the mid-1900s: "In the 18th century, Dubai was a small fishing and trading village inhabited by members of the Bani Yas." Essentially, life had remained relatively unaltered for these people for over two millennia; this began to change when the Al Maktaum family settled the area in 1833 and put a number of coastal towns under their control. Only two years later the Al Maktaum's signed the "Perpetual Maritime Truce" with the United Kingdom, and two decades later it became an official protectorate of the imperialistic nation. During this period trade expanded primarily through the export of pearls, and the city became inhabited by a majority of Indian tradesmen. International trade increased significantly when oil reserves were discovered in 1966 and concessions were made to foreign investors. In the 1970's and 80's, "Dubai and its twin across the Dubai creek, Deira (independent at that time), became important ports of call for Western manufacturers. Most of the new city's banking and financial centers were headquartered in this area." Gold also became an intrinsic part of the economy in Dubai, since the city has a free trade in gold and the commodity is restricted in India. Overall, since the arrival of the Al Maktaum's, Dubai has become a largely foreign settlement for traders of virtually all kinds; its unprecedented growth is clearly the result of an expanding international economy."

Wilderness Camping, 2005. This paper discusses the requirements of wilderness camping on the Tahoe Rim Trail on the ridge tops of the Sierra Nevada mountains along the shores of Lake Tahoe. 1,100 words (approx. 4.4 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 38.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that, as long as the camper takes a few precautions, the Tahoe Rim Trail is an excellent location for experiencing wilderness camping and having a wonderful camping adventure. The author points out that, for most of the trail's route, there are no established campgrounds; therefore, campers must follow the U.S Forest Service's (USFS) guidelines for "dispersed camping" along the trail, which means campers can choose a campsite anywhere along the trail, but the site must be within 300 feet on either side of the trail and should not be within 200 feet of a water source. The paper gives instructions for avoiding bear activity along the Trail and watching out for rattlesnakes.
From the Paper "Clearly, wilderness camping such as that along the Tahoe Rim Trail depends on successful planning before the hike. If campers are planning to hike the entire trail, they will need to plan on carrying enough food and water for the entire trip, which can run into quite a bit of supplies. They can replenish water in some of campgrounds along the way, and there are some water sources along the trail. If water from these sources is used, campers should carry a portable water purification system. Campers should never drink unfiltered or purified water from natural sources. Food will be a major part of the planning effort, and a major portion of the weight carried on the trip."

The Shades of Green Resort, 2005. This paper is a feasibility study to investigate the price an investor will pay to purchase the Shades of Green Resort in Orlando, Florida. 3,665 words (approx. 14.7 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 101.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that the Shades of Green Resort, formerly known as the Golf Resort and The Disney Inn, is for U.S. military personnel only in conjunction with a 100-year leasing agreement between Disney and the U.S. Department of Defense; however, the resort's world-class golf course is open to the general public. The author points out that this is the only family resort in the continental United States that offers low prices to military personnel, who are on R&R, and it is close to Disneyworld and many other popular attractions. The paper stresses that this hotel has the highest occupancy rate of any hotel in the United States, which is an essential component in determining the amount of money that an investor would offer for this resort; the resort has undergone a $94 million renovation and expansion, which added more revenue generating assets to the resort's property.

From the Paper "As it relates to this particular resort, the recreational activities that are able to generate revenue is extremely important. In particular, the money that can be generated for the golf courses is essential to the success of the resort. Therefore, the resort must maintain the championship courts. Just as with many of the other assets that the resort has, it must also maintain the golf course because there is a great deal of competition in the area as it pertains to prestigious courses. This also means that the prices must be reasonable. The resort also has an opportunity to make substantial revenue from this asset because it is open to the general public."

From the Paper "Society can be regarded as another tourism resource (Angell et al, 1990; Ekins, 1997) and likewise it is safe to assume that it may affect tourism activity as well. The anticipated further tourism development in Thailand through the NNESDP with respects to the local society can be both negative and positive; indicating that the degree of sustainability of the Thai tourism industry may depend on the nature of the anticipated social impacts. One of the negative aspects of Thai society is the abundance of prostitution that exist in the Country (Englund, 1998, . In addition, the spread of HIV has become rampant in recent years. According to Rittichainuwat et al (2001) these factors can give tourists a negative view of the country and influence their decision to vacation in the country. This social reality challenges development practices under the NNESDP and the sustainability of tourism in Thailand. According to Poong (2004), the primary objective of the NNESDP is to enforce the Thai economy and tourism as an industry within this economy that can contribute heavily to this."

Tourism and Calamity, 2006. Examines the effect of natural disasters and catastrophes on the global tourism industry. 5,410 words (approx. 21.6 pages), 11 sources, APA, $ 133.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The tourist industry is extremely volatile and vulnerable to extreme losses, particularly when natural disasters and other calamities strike a popular tourist destination. This paper discusses natural disasters and the concept of calamity, and focuses on their impact on the tourism industry, particularly the hospitality industry. Using case studies, this paper clearly shows the impact of these disasters on economies relying on tourism as a mainstay of their financial foundation. Additionally, this paper discusses strategies employed by some of the hardest hit areas in an effort to re-establish their tourism and hospitality base.
From the Paper "With the waterfront destroyed, and with the vast amount of debris, even those whose fishing boats were not completely destroyed are unable to provide the fish for tourists throughout the rest of Thailand. Further problems in this area of tourism stem from the problems or concerns associated with the diets of the fish caught near Thailand. As the tsunami swept bodies into the ocean, it is likely that at least some fed on those bodies, creating a high possibility for vast epidemics of disease if eaten (Bindloss, 2005). Since a large attraction for tourists to Thailand was the cultural dining and atmosphere, such a devastating consequence will deter still more tourists from visiting this area."
