I always had some excitement about travel and tourism industry. World are getting shrink day by day. Different culture and difference in languages is not any more border between two countries. Travel becomes hard core of people life.
I feel this prompted companies like Amadeus, Sabre, TravelPort saw the future and revolution in this arena and started developing complex solution for the people globally.
These companies have changed the model and created a very vast industry with huge opportunities. Rapid growth can be seen in development countries.
There are many entities in Travel and Tourism such as car, bus, train, air, Hotel, Resort, Cruise, guide. Companies like Yatra and makemytrip made available for all in single click.
Have you ever thought how we are booking online tickets for airlines, hotel, bus, train in a just few seconds, we get 100’s of comparative option cheap and best. Options are many, it’s up to you which one to select and make transaction.
Remember those traditional ways when we used to go travel agents and ask for booking for our travel needs(air, bus, train, hotel) and he used to book for us with their limitation with the broad option.
