It has become easier and more affordable for people to travel to other countries. Is this positive or negative development? Give your opinion and relevant examples from your experience.
Revolution in air travel has made it possible for everyone to undertake journeys anywhere in the world. Even though some raise concerns about the detrimental impact of this phenomena, I feel this evolution is largely beneficial, and shall elucidate my stand in the following paragraphs.
This trend has empowered common people by allowing them to travel farther than distances than they could in the past, letting them at more destinations to their vacation list, and allowing them to turn their holidays into more exciting. Besides this, they can even go to meet their near and dear ones living in other parts of the world and reunite with them. For instance, as per popular magazine, ”Travelogue”, over the last three decades, there has been a 40% jump in the numbers choosing to go abroad in order to visit their relatives, sometimes that was out of bounce for them for most part of the previous century.
Similarly, this has also brought educational and economic advantages; one can freely go to any country, and seek better education or well compensated employment to improve their profession profile, and their living standards respectively since within budget fare and lack of restrictions as fuel a sense of security among those seeking greener pastures.
Nevertheless, the only pitfall that one can enumerate is the indirect effect on the environment. Many fear that in the long run that this might lead to an increase in air pollution because as more and more travel overseas, the number of aircrafts will also increase and cause a spike in air pollution.
To conclude, disputes aside, this evolution is by all means favorable, by virtue of offering opportunities to the global populace to fulfill their requirements in terms of leisure, education, employment and meeting loved ones.
