Kubantu abangaphezu kuka-6,000 abavela emazweni ayisishiyagalolunye abaphekwa ngemibuzo, abangamaphesenti angama-97 bathi ukuphepha bekubhekwa njengokucatshangelwa uma kuthathwa isinqumo sohambo. Lokhu kuyasebenza nalapho sebelubhukile uhambo futhi bephazanyiswe izindaba zakamuva. Lokhu kubikwe ku-ITB Future Day ku-ITB Berlin Convention nguRichard Singer, ilungu lebhodi le-Travelzoo Europe, mayelana nokutholwe kwephrojekthi yocwaningo lomhlaba wonke mayelana nokuphepha kokuhamba. Umcimbi ubunesihloko esithi “Travel Safety: Fears and Counter-Reactions of Global Tourists”. Amaphesenti angu-XNUMX ezithameli anikeze izimpendulo ezifanele kunhlolovo ye-TED ekuqaleni komcimbi, kodwa iningi lilinganisela kancane.
Ocwaningweni lwezokuPhepha nokuvikeleka olwagunyazwa ngokubambisana ne-ITB Berlin, umholi wemakethe yomhlaba i-Travelzoo usebenzisana nenyuvesi ehamba phambili yezokuvakasha yaseBrithani ukuhlola okutholwe yi-Norstat Research. Abathengi abasezimakethe zokuhamba ezihamba phambili emhlabeni, okubalwa i-Europe, Japan, South Africa, India kanye neNyakatho Melika, babuzwa.
Into eyabangela ukwesaba okukhulu ubuphekula. Izidingo zabo zokuphepha zibaluleke kakhulu kubo kunangonyaka wokuqhathanisa wezi-2014. Baphinde bakhathazeke ngezinhlekelele zemvelo, izifo kanye nobugebengu ezingeni lendawo kanye nelikazwelonke. Lezi zinkinga zenza kube nzima nakakhulu "ubuso obusha bokwesaba", ngokusho kukaRichard Singer. "Imisebenzi yenzeka ezindaweni lapho abantu beya khona futhi bachithe isikhathi sabo."
Umculi uphakamise ukuqwashisa kwemboni yezokuvakasha kulezi zinkinga: "Umphumela wukuthi abantu bazizwa bengaphephile", futhi lo muzwa uyahlukahluka kusuka kwesinye isizwe kuya kwesinye. Amazwe athinteke kakhulu yiFrance neJapan ngamaphesenti angama-50 no-48 ngokulandelana. Idolobha elithathwa njengeliphephe kunazo zonke emhlabeni iSydney e-Australia, ngokungafani ne-Istanbul, lapho labo ababebuzwa babenomuzwa wokuthi "ukwesaba okuphelele kwakubusa". Phakathi kokubhukha kohambo osekwenziwe ukuthi u-Singer ubhekisele “ekuzisoleni kwabathengi” futhi wacaphuna amavolumu ezimakethe ezihlukene: I-USA (amaphesenti angu-24), i-United Kingdom (amaphesenti angu-17) kanye neJalimane (amaphesenti angu-13). Ukhiphe lesi sikhalo esilandelayo kwabasebenzisa izivakashi: “Ulwazi akumelwe lwenziwe lutholakale kusenesikhathi kuphela kodwa nakulabo asebevele bebhukha.
Umculi ubheka ukuncishiswa kwentengo njengokushoda kulokho okudingekayo. Uphinde wanikeza isixazululo, mayelana nesimo njengethuba. Abaqhubi bezokuvakasha kufanele bakhuthale futhi bangaguquguquki ekunikezeni iseluleko esicacile sohambo esivela emithonjeni esemthethweni. Wenze isibonelo sokwenza okungcono kakhulu okuvela eqenjini le-TUI lokuhamba, “elikhombisa lokhu kuzo zonke izigaba zokuhlela nokwenza ukubhuka”. Umculi ucabanga ukuthi abaqhubi abakhulu bezokuvakasha, i-TUI kanye noThomas Cook, kufanele babe uphawu lwabo bonke abanye: "Bangathuthukisa izinhlelo zokunikeza izitifiketi zamazinga okuphepha, kanye nezinyathelo ezihlukahlukene zokuphepha okufanele zithathwe endaweni yamaholide."
Umculi ufingqa ngokuthi yize kuyindida lesi sihloko kodwa esingeke sazitshwa. Ngokubheka izibopho ezithwalwa imboni yezokuvakasha, ibhodi le-Travelzoo liyaqiniseka ukuthi "amakhasimende alindele ukuthola izeluleko ezivela emkhakheni wezokuvakasha."
