Russia's bid has been awarded the FIFA 2018 A Loss tourism host the UK?

Russia won the race and in 2018 hosted the FIFA World Cup and the tourism industry in Germany has its disappointment, as he had planned to tap their potential as a tourist target has awarded the contract to host the tournament International.

The optimal design of honor, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has assured that the visa rules of FIFA in 2018 would be waived for all Russian foreign tourists with tickets to the game a.

The general perception in the United Kingdom,offer that was one of the strongest competitors in, is that the country the opportunity to host 2018 FIFA World Cup scattered according to a recent revelation of the British press (BBC and The Times) on cash for the scandal because of the vote FIFA executive members of which two were suspended and fined one.

But FIFA president Sepp Blatter said: "We're going to new countries," the statement, while announcing the World Cup 2018 hosts in Zurich, Switzerland last week.

Inall the rebellions, the non-UK seen as a blow to tourism. "The tourists would come to England ahead of the tournament's host cities and potential host cities have seen. Now these people are on the way elsewhere, may be far to Russia," Arunava Chaudhuri, a sports journalist, blogger and football consultant in Remscheid , Germany, said IBTimes.

According to the World Sport Destination Expo, sports tourism products and services, is hosting sport tourism is the fastestgrowing sector in the travel industry worldwide and is expected to grow exponentially over the next ten years.

The increase in July of this year's Expo in Johannesburg, South Africa, basking in sports tourism is probably the world's tourist arrivals by 14 percent by the end of 2010, when nation-states, the data showed significant variations.

After the Indian Ministry of Tourism, Commonwealth Games, which recently completed in India, the country with only 9 per cent increase of foreign touristsArrivals, which is much lower than expected.

In contrast, African Tourism, the national tourism agency has been a huge increase in the south of 17.4 per cent of tourist arrivals worldwide in the first eight months of the year following the 2010 FIFA World Cup held earlier This year in South Africa.

The differences in tourism between the two nations, international sporting events hosted fanfare of equal treatment may indicate that staged a World Cup is not the only factor inDrive attractions of a nation. Many travel experts say they overestimated the benefits of tourism from hosting sporting events are.

"We are all naturally disappointed that England failed in its argument in its bid to host the 2018 World Cup hosts. Despite this setback, the next ten years full of promise for sport in England," was James Berresford, director general of tourism body VisitBritain has said, quoted in the media.

While the arrival of foreign tourists decreased by 2 percent in the firstnine months of 2010, the next two years is certainly encouraging for the tourism in Germany. royal wedding of Prince William in 2011 and the 2012 Olympics in London and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee in the same year, Britain to keep the international spotlight, "said Berresford.

"World Cup is an opportunity in a country profile, such as London, which must be done by the 2012 Olympic Games," said Chaudhuri.

In addition, a study conducted by VisitBritain, the national tourism agency of Great Britain, conducted in July this yearHe concluded that the contribution of tourism to the UK economy could grow by 60 percent by 2020. It seems that in the United Kingdom's 2018 FIFA World Cup is not really a big loss, "loss".

FIFA World Cup 2010 – A missed opportunity for tourism in South Africa

FIFA World Cup in South Africa will soon be upon us and as with any global event like this there are great public debate on how the Preparations go. For South Africa, the first time they hosted the FIFA World Cup and the eyes of the world for them, perhaps with more control from previous guests. This is a great opportunity to sell this wonderful country and it has to offer to all international visitors. Breaking newsare that ticket sales do not go as hoped and some nations have qualified public concerns on communication of safety for their teams and fans. South Africa has a huge amount of money invested in the preparation stages and the introduction of infrastructure, to ensure the games are enjoyed all the fans. Perhaps the potential areas of concern for fans, we participate in the World Cup, the cost of accommodation and domestic flights.

I am aware of pricesDomestic flights are offered to 4-5 times their normal price for the year. This means that not only fans but also on people living in South Africa. In its wisdom the Government has decided that school is a national holiday during the World Cup. For working parents it is enough problems already, but if you look at the holidays in this period will be against the same problem that the fans are with – prices are exorbitant! Thiscurrently an ongoing investigation, a number of major airlines in South Africa for pricing – this is indicated by the total absence of flights during this period exacerbated. We hope the government will start like this and in this situation, as has undoubtedly put off many fans.

The second area of concern is property prices. At this point it should be noted that after the last Olympics in Sydney, host to see instead of a recovery in visitorAfter the event there was a sharp decline in tourists for the next three years! Much of this decline in tourism was to have on prices is made during the Olympic Games in accounting. The same has happened in South Africa. Many homeowners are charging 5 6 7 + times more than their normal rates. This short-term speculation, known as "planing" is ridiculous. Fans will be "destroyed" and that is to come so many football fans with the decision, not only in South Africa.This is a shame as the quality of accommodation houses, B & B and car-owners will be offered generally much higher than many other countries. Of course there will always be business packages, keep these high prices is to talk to their clients, but for the average fan will have a World Cup, the effort must be far away. What a shame if the country has to offer much to fans during the breaks between games. I truly feel that it isa "missed opportunity" for the tourism industry in South Africa and venue owners are charging high prices have regrets. We hope you will come to their senses, together with airlines and reduce their prices. Otherwise, as usual, the figures for the World Cup will come nowhere near achieving the expected one million.
