1. TRANSPORTATION
SECTOR

2. Transportation and Travel Evolution
Pre-Industrial Travel System Era
• This was the period before the
widespread industrialization in
Europe and North America.
• There were almost no regularly-scheduled
transportation services.
• There was little travel.
• Only few people had the money
and the reason to travel.

3. Transportation and Travel Evolution
Early-Industrial Travel System Era
• Road improvements such as railways,
cannals, and steamship services were
brought about due to rapid
industrialization and advances in
transportation technology.
• Common carriers came into existence
and began to offer regularly-scheduled
transportation services.
• Travel increased because more people
who had money to travel.

4. Transportation and Travel Evolution
Mature-Railway System Era
• This era was characterized by railway
by which expanded their operations by
running hotels and providing other
travel-related services.
• Travel agencies and tour companies
were formed.
• Thomas Cook, an innovator in this field
during this era, began his company’s
activities in the UK in 1840.
• More people traveled.

5. Transportation and Travel Evolution
Express-Travel System Era
• Express services increased.
• Trains and other forms of transportation
did not stop at every station or terminal
but only at the major ones.
• This increased the speed of travel and
encouraged more travel than before.

6. Transportation and Travel Evolution
Automobile-Based Travel System Era
• Car ownership boomed in North
America.
• Motorways, interstate highways, and
other trunk highways were developed
in the later half of this era which was
from 1920-1974.
• The automobile was predominant over
other travel modes from 1920-1945.

7. Transportation and Travel Evolution
Modern-Tourism Travel System Era
• The period from 1945-1974 is known as
the modern tourism system era.
• Car ownership continued to grow at a
fast rate, mainly at the expense of
long-distance rail travel.
• The introduction of wide-bodied jets in
1970 greatly increased air travel.
• The “mass tourism” philosophy and
marketing approaches were prevalent
during the 1950’s and 1960’s.

8. Transportation and Travel Evolution
Post-Mobility Adjustment Era
• This era began in 1973-1974 as a result
of the oil embargo generated by OPEC
and the resulting increase in fuel prices.
• The events of the energy crisis basically
changed the travel patterns
throughout the world.
• The present era is one in which travelers
continue to look to alternative, group-oriented
modes of transportation.
