Transportation is the most important component of the tourism industry. There’s a direct relationship and interaction between tourism and transportation. Just as the development of transportation systems help grow and vitalize tourism; development of tourism obliges transportation to be more comfortable and better. Because transportation means travelling. Just as transportation means arriving at a location and moving from there; it sometimes also can be a touristic attraction in and of itself. Transportation is an arena that has the power of affecting sub-industries of tourism such as accommodation, food and drink.
