An analysis of the international tourism statistics brings out certain interesting aspects. Tourism registered an average growth of 5.6 percent in 1970-80 and 9 percent in 1960-70. International tourism showed a faster growth in the sixties primarily due to the reduction in the air-fares. In 1973, the Arab countries formed a cartel to charge higher prices for oil and consequently prices went up. This led to an increase in air fares and also a minor ‘recession’ in several developed countries, slowing down the average growth of international tourism during the decade 1970-80.



Remarkably, 16 industrially developed countries of the world generated 82 percent of the total international arrivals. The following 12 countries contributed only 65 percent of the international tourist arrivals in 1981. They include Austria, Belgium, Canada, France, West Germany, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, UK and USA. It is noteworthy that Europe accounts for over two-thirds of international travel both
