      Great article. It is quite unfortunate that over the last 10 years, the travel industry has already been able to to deal with terrorism, SARS, tsunamis, bird flu, swine flu, along with the first ever real global downturn. Through all of it the industry has proven to be robust, resilient along with dynamic, acquiring new solutions to deal with misfortune. There are often fresh complications and chance to which the sector must just as before adapt and react.
