To begin with this could be classed as a positivity as the tourism industry sector is still growing despite the different impact, however this could also be seen as a negative according to the WTTC findings because it has meant that within the Brexit it includes that immigrants might have to go back to their own countries. This is showing as since there are mostly foreigners working in the sector like working in hotels, there is an opening for more vacancies, this could mean less people are able to effectively give good tourist services. Whilst focusing on how the sector has boosted the UK’s economy in different ways, there are also somethings which could change for UK travellers. According to express article for tourists who are going on holiday they would need to keep on top of the “Brexit holiday rules, when travelling to Europe”, this suggests that the guide book was made to ensure they understand the rules, when entering a European country but ensuring rules are being kept. The studies from this article shows that there is a main focus on passport changes, euros and exchange rates, visas and healthcare, when it comes to the passport the Foreign and Commonwealth Office describes it as still giving the British people the “freedom” to travel but having this passport at all times. Moreover, when looking at the travelling of the industry within the tourism industry, “staycation” has been something else which has become popular over the last year or so as a result of

Tourism has taken a toll on many Native Hawaiians and is a huge human rights issue today. Most Hawaiians dislike tourism greatly due to the selfishness and greediness tourists bring to their home country. The pastor at a small rural church on the island of Kauai, Reverend Kaleo Patterson, has witnessed and dealt with numerous Hawaiians who struggle with the issues of tourism. Numerous vacation resorts that attract tourists have taken over gravesites of Hawaiians that have passed away. Due to this problem ancient Hawaiians have to partake in reburials. Tourism causes destruction to coral reefs and rivers because of mindless pollution. Reverend Patterson has protested and given public hearings in effort to acknowledge her fury on tourism. Tourism has brought an uncontrollable worldwide business that has no sympathy or thoughtfulness for the original people of Hawaii.

The number of trips taken by Britons overseas has declined by 12.6 million, from 69.4 million to 56.8 million between 2007 and 2011, according to the research by Travelodge. This means that 5.9 million holidays and trips have come out of the market altogether when the number of domestic holidays and trips are factored in. This is shy of the government’s stated ambition for domestic trips to replace the number of missing overseas trips, the report says. However, the analysis shows that ‘staycation’ breaks were up by 5.6% as the recession proved that holidays are an essential rather than a luxury. UK city breaks account for 23% of domestic tourism but seaside towns are in decline by 5%. Total tourism revenue was up 12.6% to £40 billion between 2007-2011 against the general economy up 8%. Employment numbers in tourism have bucked the wider trend, thanks to strong growth in 2011 when 120,000 new jobs were created. The UK’s appeal as a tourist destination endured during the double dip, with overall visitor numbers up by 3.1% to 157.4 million, the report shows. Staycations form the backbone of the tourism economy, with domestic trips and holidays increasing by 5.6% to 126.6 million.
In this document I am going to be looking at the possible impacts that two factors have on the UK in terms of Inbound and domestic tourists and how this possess possible problems in the future and therefore help to predict possible outcomes in terms of tourism numbers and offer ways in which I think that the UK can overcome this and therefore maintain their inbound visitors numbers and increase domestic travel within the UK.
