sector in both direct as well as indirect ways. Travel and tourism is broader arena which takes
into account several facets. The economy of the country is affected as a whole when the business
organizations work to earn revenue and profit. Various external factors have different
implications with respect to influence the travel and tourism sector. Regarding UK, the role
played by local and national economic policy is responsible for growth of travel and tourism
sector. Influences of these bodies with reference to UK have been made. This has been
elucidated in the table given below:

Implications of political change in different nations
The dimension of travel and tourism has now expanded at global level. As evidenced
from visitors who came from various nations to UK, may cause direct and indirect implications.
However, in similar fashion, there are different nations who do not have similar structure and
working. Hence, it becomes essential to work in accordance with the political stability for the
prosperity of every nation or individual who is a part of travel and tourism (Law, 2000).
However, it is crucial to study the implication of political change in different nations of the
world. The central idea behind the same is to bring stability in work and positive consequences
of economic status. In order to examine the political implication, following three nations have
been discussed as follows:
Ukraine:
Ukraine has been a major attraction place for the tourist. With about more than 20 million
of visitors coming from abroad, it has enabled it to become 8th most famous tourist destination in
the world (Inskipp, 2008). The place has been developed with effective location of
accommodation, infrastructure, transport and other facilities of Travel and Tourism. However,
since the nation is backward in some extent, the country has backward image. But, it possesses
rich cultural, religion and historical aspects.
Regarding political factor prevailing in Ukraine affect the working and operations in
certain ways. In similar regards, there are certain travel and tourism policy formulated in
Ukraine. For an example, in this light of policy at Ukraine, visitors from outside now can enter
into Ukraine without Visa. The significance of this policy made by Ukraine is to attempt positive
promotion of developing traveling in its nation (Major and Evans, 2008). However, in contrary
to same, negative impact of this policy may have on nation. Therefore, strict regulation and eye
on tourists are to be kept by Ukraine on other nations.
China
The working and operations of this nation are progressive at gradual basis. All the top
leaders of the nation and senior officials are responsible for forming different policies and
programs for supporting country's growth and progress. This is evidenced from the fact that
China is the 4th largest country in the world with population of about 55 million as per 2007
(Iwashita, 2008).
9

Regarding travel and tourism received by China from other nation is supported by 41.9
billion US dollars (Dickinson and Lumsdon, 2012). In respect to the travel and tourism of this
nation, the political stability also focuses on political condition of the country. Overall good
spending shows that traveling in this country has been developing. This is all because of political
changes that are bought by the China. For example, the country has developed National Tourism
Policy which carries an objective of bringing new changes in the nation. The core lies in
developing travel infrastructure in China. In this way, China and its political system is working
to continuously bring improvement in planning strategy for attracting number of tourists.
TASK 3
Factors affecting tourism demand
According to the given scenario, the TUI Group has appointed a new manager. As a part
of new job, it is vital to make him aware regarding the things that are required to be considered
for taking into account in fulfilling the demand of customers. In an order to provide the best of
experience regarding travelling and destinations trip, there are various aspects which are required
to be considered for meeting the taste and preference of visitors to give the best of travelling
experience on behalf of TUI Group.
The tourists play very vital role in development of travel and tourism of the nation. In
similar context, UK also paves great importance to its customers as visitors from different
nations of the world. This is only made effective and possible because of the best of services and
facilities that are provided by the tour operators groups such as TUI Group who are so committed
and dedicated for giving varied travelling experience to different destinations of the world to
clients. Therefore, significance is given to provide various tourists with the various facilities and
arrangement that support in making their travel and trip successful. In the same vein, there are
various factors which are required to be considered which influence or affect the demand of
tourist. For instance, economy factor is one such category which is includes exchange rates, price
level of the country (George and Swart, 2015). Political change is one more factor that should be
consider in expansion of EU, environment and taxation policy of the UK government. In a
streamline, hazards such as terrorism, earthquake, flood etc are also considered which affect the
UK and its working. Some more factors that affect the tourism demand in UK are discussed with
respect to TUI Group and are as follows:
10

 Economies: It includes various aspects such as population of UK, their lifestyle, standard
of living etc. This is considered as a factor which affects the economy and travel and
tourism of nation as their classification into various group influences and determines the
demand of certain things. TUI considers and takes it as very biggest factor in
implementing varied services and facilities for its customers. Place, region, location, age
group, gender, their preference, perception are all sub factors which have direct influence
on the demand. For an example, majority of UK population includes old age people. This
calls for an establishment of Grey tourism which refers to travel and tourism for large
group of population who are above age of 55 years. This is the speculation which is made
generally that this old age group will cause adverse impact on tourism and thereby affect
the economy of UK. Manager at TUI must take in account all the above specified factors
while planning its travelling plan.
 Level of political stability in a country: Political regulation is required to manage the
working of the UK. It is required to be balanced for carrying out the suitable exchange of
tourists from all over the globe. Therefore, UK is required to undertake practice of
activities which matches well with the factors such as religion, culture, tradition, social
group of the country. In similar fashion, rules and regulations of the UK government
reform and change from time to time (Pownall, Jones and Meadows, 2008). For example,
in UK, equal working and growth opportunities exist for private and public sector
organizations. This attracts the tourist to meet every type of their demand and need.
Hence, by considering the way of doing its services and operations in UK, the TUI is
firmly dedicated to carry out its roles and responsibilities in adherence with Political
environment.
 Influence of currency exchange rates: The currency rate has always been the most crucial
factor which is required to be taken care. For example, when tourist from another nation
comes, all the payments are essentially to be made in currency of home country. In
context of adverse situation, where there occurs fall in UK currency, the pound may
affected thereby affect the travel and tourism. TUI arranges trip for its clients all across
the world. Hence, they are requiring managing their workings and operations as per the
11

prevailing currency of the country in which they are conducting its trip or destination
visit.
 Work patters and workforce: The employee employed by UK is British citizens. In order
to meet the different need and demand of people coming from abroad, UK is requiring
being equipped. In contrary to same, if they were not met with any kind of need, they
would not be able to enjoy the trip to UK. Therefore, workforce need to be well
developed as well to support appropriate travel and tourism. For TUI, customers are very
crucial and hence they believe in developing their destination trip according to taste,
preference and habits of customers and their demand. On the other way round, the focus
of TUI manager should be on its employees and their training for gaining good feedback
with respect to customer satisfaction.
 Environmentalism: Tourism is highly affected by the suitable and clean environment. In
similar vein, UK also takes it into consideration (Sigala, 2012). Travel and tourism of
UK, therefore provides various products such as green tourism, Eco-tourism, etc. This is
because of rising demand of the visitors coming from, abroad. Every planning of TUI
must comprise of policies and plans that are formulated with respect to environment.
Effects of supply and demand
Travel and tourism has emerged as a global business which covers certain aspects. The
central idea has now focuses mainly on earning revenue and profit. Organizations in UK who are
involved in providing various packages and services have been developed. TUI is one among the
major tour operators in UK. By considering travel and tourism sector, there objective of these
tour operators is to offer maximum varieties of services and facilities to accommodate the tourist
and customers (Major and Evans, 2008). For example, TUI, which is one of the pioneer tour
operators accommodate tourist from all over the world in the best way possible. Commencing
from simple holiday package provided by similar tour operators to the vivid accommodation
facilities, the efforts are infused to provide and meet their demand with the supply. For example,
TUI provides packages which are designed on the basis of levels and affordability of the
customers. It is available in various forms according to the requirement of room, food and
facilities. It is all determined on the basis of customers need and aspiration. These are some
aspects which are planned by keeping into consideration the demand of the tourists.
12

According to the supply as the provision of TUI, they includes all the facilities beginning
from attractions, accommodations, transportation, promotion, business activities etc influences to
a greater extent. They are required to keep a balance between the supply and demand of
products, packages and services to meet the need of the customers. There are certain provisions
in similar regards (George and Swart, 2015). According to tour operators namely, TUI and its
working processes, above mentioned aspect has been planned. The team of TUI and its team
members maintains demand and supply between accommodation, tour operators, quality, service,
types of products technology etc. By considering increase in demand of the specialist tours that
provide variety of products and services. The efforts are made by TUI who is now providing
packages as customized according to the customers. For an example, TUI includes facilities such
as sailing and boating holidays in its packages and products.
TASK 4
Positive and negative economic, environmental and social factors
In relation to the above discussion, the working of TUI Group in serving its travelers
across the world needs to be magnified with respect to various factors that are affecting their
working and operations. For any location or destination, there is need to underpin role of various
factors which have positive and negative implications. For the present study, TUI Group has
selected Scotland as the tourist destination for its travelers. It has well developed and established
tourism destination. The rationale behind why TUI Group planned its trip there is because of the
various reasons which are its historic locations, beautiful scenarios and effective history.
However, there are some factors stated below which are required to be taken for knowing
positive and negative implications detailed as follows:
 Economic: As surveyed by the marketing team of the TUI Group, it was found that
population of Scotland is calm and quiet. They are generally environmental lovers
thereby keeps the clean and beautiful environment. It thereby creates positive impact for
attracting number of customers round the globe to visit Scotland. Highlands are major
attraction but they do not contribute in the earning of the visitors coming from abroad.
And Scotland is not able to earn profit or revenue earning out from same which is an
adverse impact. Secondly, economic status of the Scotland is strong. In this streamline,
visitors from UK have made 18.5 million visits to Scotland. But, it may affected by the
13

adverse consequences of the global economic status around the world. Hence, TUI must
take this aspect into consideration before planning its trip to Scotland.
 Environmental: Scotland has critical winter existence which reduces its attractiveness for
the tourists. In contrary to same, people who are mountain lovers and admirers will favor
to visit the place. TUI has effectively assessed the taste, preference and demand of its
customers and accordingly chosen this place because of its all such characteristics. In
consideration to TUI travel and tourism, the major aspect of TUI Group lies in creating a
positive impact on attracting the visitors. However, it may have adverse impact as huge
investments are made as affected by the cost and fund implications of the nation.
 Social: In consideration to the social factor, it is very simple at Scotland. As per the
marketing research of TUI Group, social factors are very crucial determinant. They
planned their entire trip by considering the facilities provided for the visitors are very
cheap and affordable. This is a biggest factor which attracts large mass of people towards
it. Existence of such facets among the Scottish citizens is a good way. It has positive
impact on the earning of the people living over there. In contrary to that there also
prevail factors such as orthodox thought process and reserved people who hamper the
growth of people. Hence. TUI Group finds it suitable on all ground in arranging its trip
for travelers to Scotland.
The above stated factors have been analyzed to affect the development and growth of the
travel and tourism industry. In consideration to both positive and negative impact of above stated
aspects of factors, Scotland become successful in creating bright travel and tourism.
Strategies to minimize the negative impacts while maximizing positive impacts
In light of above stated positive and negative impact, there is need for TUI Group to work
on the adverse impact to ripe the certain other advantages for their trip to travelers at Scotland.
Marketing team of Scotland has assessed the various strategies to minimize the negative impacts
while maximizing positive impacts. These have been discussed in following points as follows:
 TUI is dealing in travel and tourism in Scotland should support effective and efficient
business management and sustainable working.
 Negative impact has been evaluated with respect to Scotland.
14

 The efforts and actions are required to be taken where negative impacts can be reduced
over positive impacts Firstly, there is need to make planned control over code of conducts
that can work out external factors affecting tourism.
 These are inclusive of social, cultural and environmental factors.
 If there will be well defined and established code of ethics and conducts, the business of
tourism can be managed suitably. Alternatively, Scotland can formulate on the basis of
Global Code of Ethics for Tourism of WTO.
 In considerations to the poor and backward scenario of Scotland, the initiative could have
been worked out for the development of village sports complex on the mountain range
(Vance and et.al., 2011). Undertaking this initiative will be effective in order to ensure
more number of tourists. This will surely support in earning revenues as well.
CONCLUSION
In a nutshell, it can be concluded that Travel and Tourism has been biggest sector. It is
because of growth and development factors that are supported by various nations. This broad
sector has been successful in providing employment and various business opportunities to
number of people. Through examining the history of UK, vivid developments have contributed
to the growth of the nation. The various organizations to this sector have contributed as various
benefits. Along with this, support and assistance of international travel and tourism acted as a
backbone to globalization. This empowers various organizations around the world including the
UK. After analyzing the contribution of travel and tourism in economic growth, raises trade,
progress development, and make higher disposable incomes, this sector remarks bright future. It
is a demonstration of strong communities which work to bring people from diverse regions and
locations at one single place.
