London, Nice, Singapore, Japan, China and South Korea are developing ‘smart tourism’: they
are ‘creating a rich information space that meets the needs of the tourist in real time in English or
another language’.
The technological basis for the development of smart services is the universal availability of
wireless mobile Internet, BlueTooth data transmission systems, Wi-Fi and the like, as well as the
necessary information materials and applications for mobile phones: mini-atlases, travel guides,
navigation programs, route guides, content and collaboration referral systems, and more.
The long-term trend of increasing the competitiveness of tourism around the world shows that
the increase in competitiveness is primarily due to the following six key indicators: air transport
infrastructure, ICT readiness (ICT), price competitiveness, international openness, tourism
priorities, protection and security.
In the context of active tourism growth (international tourism flow), increasing pressure on
tourism infrastructure and services, the competitiveness of tourism can be seen as a strong driver
of economic growth or a threat to further development. if the industry is not managed properly.
The Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index is published every two years and assesses the
competitiveness of tourism around the world: 136 countries in 2017, 140 countries in 2019.
[22,25].
CONCLUSION
The results of 2019 show that as a result of the improvement of air transport infrastructure, the
capacity of routes and the number of airlines operating in selected countries have increased
significantly. International openness is evolving and low-income countries are ahead.Digital
connectivity is supported by the growing number of Internet users, which means that many
countries can now take advantage of the growing list of digital travel services. However, in the
future, the demand for transport services, especially for aviation, may exceed infrastructure
improvements.
The top 10 countries in terms of tourism development remain unchanged [25]: Spain, France,
Germany, Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Italy, Canada, and
Switzerland. Of these, only the UK has lost its position since 2017 (from 5th to 6th place),
followed by the United States (6th to 5th place). The main advantages of leaders are related to
the developed infrastructure, natural and cultural resources.
The competitiveness of tourism often leads to a significant increase in demand for travel and
tourism. Given the growth in tourism forecast over the next decade, it is important for public and
private stakeholders to understand the implications and implications of tourism competitiveness
so that they can work together to develop sustainable ways to manage the sector over time.
