Leisure & Tourism Network
The face of leisure and tourism is undergoing it's most radical change for generations, driven by the escalating price of Oil, and the associated huge increase in the price of food. In America millions are suffering from the Sub-Prime Mortgage crisis and the fall out from a painful recession. Expensive vacations have been sidelined, replaced by sheer financial survival. In 1991 during far better times for the leisure and tourism industries a project was developed to track leisure and create a TV network. Initially called The Leisure Time Network, LTN was renamed Leisure and Tourism Network in 2008 to reflect changing priorities. |

Ever wondered where the major investment in Tourism projects is taking place around the world? Dubai is one of the leading locations, where Oil and Gas profits are being used to turn a barren land into a tourist paradise. They plan to cater for the wealthy from Europe, The Middle East, and Asia. China too is building everything from Theme Parks to hotels by the dozen. They have 1.6 Billion people to entertain. Yet Tourism, the world's primary industry has been neglected by successive US Administrations. Communication Links, Inc. tracks global tourism and assists with planning and development. |
Those Hidden Getaways
The days of mass tourism may be at an end thanks to the sky high price of fuel, and the growing restrictions to the travel experience thanks to geopolitical events. Many are starting to realize again that there is beauty everywhere, and maybe a quiet weekend looking at the sea, lakes or the mountains can achieve more than being thrown around on Roller Coasters, jostled by swarming crowds and putting up with the stress and inconvenience of the major tourism destinations. LTN is looking at the trends for leisure, which have taken a marked shift in direction. More shortly ....... |
