There is an opinion that shortly, many people will prefer to go on a vacation in their home
country
rather than
travel
abroad. I disagree with
this
viewpoint as I think in the future, the
cost
of travelling abroad might significantly decrease and
visa
procedures could become easier.
Although
every
country
has many exquisite locations, it is foreign tourist destinations that might soon become cheaper.
This
is because as compared to the past, with the rise in the number of aeroplanes companies there has been a significant decrease in flight ticket rates, which means that the
cost
of travelling to an international destination is almost same as the
cost
of travelling to a domestic destination.
Therefore
, people might find it cheaper to
travel
abroad and explore different climatic conditions rather than to holiday in the same climatic conditions in their home
country
.
For example
, a flight ticket from Mumbai to Darjeeling
cost
approximately INR 5000, and that of Mumbai to Dubai is INR 7000, and
this
difference will
further
reduce in the future.
Yet another reason why people will choose to
travel
abroad on holiday is that soon
visa
procedures will become easier than it is now. With the advancement of technology and growing diplomatic ties between countries, more and more countries now offer
visa
on arrival to certain nationality passport holders.
Thus
, more people may find travelling abroad on holiday hassle-free and quicker.
Besides
, tourists often get to experience the varied culture, heritage and hospitality when travelling to foreign countries
instead
of holidaying in their own
country
’s tourist locations. To illustrate, 58 countries now offer
visa
on arrival to Indian nationality passport holders, and
this
number of countries offering
such
visa
benefits will probably rise in the future.
In conclusion, I disagree with the opinion that more people will choose to go on a trip in their own
country
over the alternative of going abroad because soon the transport rates between domestic
travel
and international
travel
might decrease
further
, and
visa
procedures may become swifter.
