The Evolution and
Historical Development of
Transportation and Travel
Transportation has evolved for many decades. People went
from walking to horse riding to creating trains, ships, and
automobiles and forming tracks and roads until we have
developed planes and rockets to travel through space.
Evolution of Transportation

Evolution of Transport
In the stone age, we were only walking and riding
horses. By the time of the 3500 B.C., humans
created wagons, boats and ships. In the later
15th and 17th centuries, we built ships, trains,
and steam powered cars. During that time, we
created roads, tunnels, and railways. By the time
of the 21st century, we have developed into
creating electric cars, planes, rockets, jet skis
and many more.
Historical Development
of Transport Systems
Transport first came when the wheel was invented in the 3500 B.C. With the wheel, they
turned it into a wagon that can transport supplies much more and easier. They used
horses or mules to carry supplies and later ride with or without the carriage. And later
on, we developed into creating automobiles that later turned into 20th century cars
which are used for public transport and deliveries.

Later on they created boats and ships in order to transport goods and
supplies to other regions of the world. Ships allows people to get to one place
to another and later turned it into either a cargo ship or a cruise ship. It later
became one of the best transport in transporting materials, products, and
people.
Historical Development
of Transport Systems
Trains were developed in the 18th century as a locomotive and it involves
building railways from one location to another. Just like ships, it was both use
for carrying materials and transporting people from one place to another.
Trains nowadays are run by electricity like the bullet train.

Planes was first used as a military weapon and transporting air

drop supplies. Later on the 20th century, it was later used to
transport people and supplies. And later developed into a
commercial plane for passengers to travel.
The Selection of
Transport Mode
Transport modes are the means
supporting the mobility of passengers and
resources. They are mobile transport
assets and fall into three basic types
which are land , water, and air.
Road transport or road transportation is a type of transport using roads.
Transport on roads can be roughly grouped into the transportation of goods
and transportation of people. Road is a route between two destinations, which
has been either paved or worked on to enable transportation by way of
motorised and non-motorised carriages.

Rail transport is also known as train transport. It is a means of transport, on

vehicles which run on tracks (rails or railroads). It is one of the most important,
commonly used and very cost effective modes of commuting and goods carriage
over long, as well as, short distances. Railways are composed of a traced path for a
right of way on which wheeled vehicles are bound.
 Air transport is a type of transport that uses an aircraft to travel
through the airspace. There are components in the air transport
system and this includes the airport. The airports accommodate the
airline aircraft at the beginning and end of their flights and in
between, serving the passengers and freight cargo demand.

Maritime transport refers to a means of transport where goods

and/or people are transported in seas and oceans. Maritime
transportation is the most effective mode of moving large
quantities of cargo over long distances because of its buoyancy
and limited friction with water.
The Role of International
Rail Transport
Rail transportation systems significantly reduced travel times and
made it possible to provide dependable and consistent schedules
that could be taken into account when producing and distributing
goods, among other economic operations. Railroads are the most
efficient transportation mode for moving goods on the earth's
surface.

As its resources and services have to be scheduled and

geographically distributed, rail transportation was the first medium
to introduce scheduling and dependability to transportation
systems
Role of International Rail Transport
Railroads are the most efficient transportation mode for moving goods
on the earth's surface. Railroads are of particular importance for the
movement of commodities that heavy and moved in bulk over long
distances where the transportation spend represents a large portion of
the total delivered cost

Railroads can play a significant role in developing the attractiveness of a

tourist destination and could act as a catalyst for territorial branding.
Reasons for
the Growth and
Decline of Ship
Travels
 Reasons for the Growth
of Ship Travels
The travel industry's fastest-growing segment was the cruise industry. The
fact that cruise lines were successful in adapting to new travel trends and
providing cruise ships with amenities and experiences catered to the demands
of customers from all market segments is one of the primary reasons for the
rapid expansion and growth in popularity of cruises.

Some factors, including the long-term growth in consumers' disposable income, the
adaptation of products to the needs of new source markets and different market
segments, increased cruise capacity in new regions, and the creation of national
cruise brands, were responsible for the rapid growth in demand for cruise tourism.
 Reasons for the Decline
of Ship Travels
The Corona Crisis had a significant impact on the cruise industry, upsetting all plans, schedules, and
forecasts. Millions of cruise passengers have been affected by significant disruptions and cancellations caused
by the global coronavirus pandemic, which has wreaked havoc on the cruise industry. The confined and
enclosed environment onboard, the high rates of infection among the crew and guests, and the extensive
unfavorable media coverage all had a severe impact on the cruise industry.

Due to high infection rates among the crew and guests, the cruise industry was especially and right away
affected. With the fluctuations of global passengers, revenues will generally follow a similar pattern unless
there is a substantial shift in consumer behaviour. Usually, the most significant impacts on a travel company’s
revenues, aside from passenger flows, are an economic recession, foreign exchange, or a change in booking
trends.
Importance and Scope
of Bus/Motor Coach
Industry
Bus and coach transportation industry is often the only means of getting to work, school, care,
recreation, and tourism for many inhabitants, particularly for students, laborers, the elderly, those with
disabilities, and those with low incomes. They improve social inclusion providing access to education,
healthcare and employment to all.

A coach (also known as a coach bus, motorcoach, or parlor coach) is a type of bus built for longer-
distance service, in contrast to transit buses that are typically used within a single metropolitan region.
Often used for touring, intercity, and international bus service, coaches are also used for private charter
for various purposes.
Bus and motor coaches can bring more tourist to a
specific location to be able to support local economy.
It provides efficient and cost effective transportation
linking commuters to employment, and airports and
rail stations to the surface transportation network.

Motorcoaches provide the only form of public

intercity transportation to millions of rural residents.
This is all accomplished by an industry of small
businesses with little to no taxpayer subsidies.
The Impact of
Private Car
Ownership to The
Tourism Industry
The Impact of Private Car Ownership
to The Tourism Industry
The impact of owning your own private vehicle to the tourism industry
are relatively low. Owning private car has its own benefits such as being
suited for long travels while avoiding getting cramped from others. You
get to go anywhere while being safe inside and has lesser hassle. This
kind of transport option not only gives freedom of travel, but is cost
effective as compared to public transit options.

However, not all can afford their own private vehicle therefore not
affecting the tourism industry that much. Private cars actually benefits
road transportation but not air and maritime transportations unless its
privately owned. Otherwise it is very expensive to own a private aircraft
and ship.
The tourism industry will only be affected if there is a pandemic.
An example of it is the COVID-19 pandemic where owning a
private vehicle is much more safe than using public transport for
traveling.

In addition, the tourism industry is more likely to increase in

significance because it opens up more borders for travelers to
explore and open up new opportunities for people who wants a
profession. This allows public transportation of the tourism
industry to be more significant in traveling.
The Dynamics of the Worldwide
Car Rental Industry

Advantageous for international trips
Geographically dispersed business operations
Technologically developed
Emergence of trend in the tourism industry
Fast-growing in the market
The Role of The Airline
Industry in The
Development of
Tourism
The role of the airlines in the tourism industry is to provide
mass and quick transportation between countries under
safe, standardized, and economical conditions. Its
relationship to the tourism industry is better understood by
breaking down the entire activity of tourism into its parts.

The air transport sector is important in facilitating

economic growth and development which can alleviate
poverty. Air transport generates benefits to consumers and
the wider economy by providing speedy connections
between cities.
The Role of The Airline
Industry in The
Development of Tourism
Directly, about 19 million jobs in tourism are
for supporting the tourists who come by air.
This includes jobs in hotel, restaurants, local
transport, car rentals, etc. Indirectly, about
15 million jobs in tourism are supported by
the visitors arriving by air.
