Travel and Tourism BTEC Level 3 National Travel and Tourism AS1 Interview What experience do you have of the travel and tourism sector? Interview a family member about a holiday or trip they have been on (the most recent they can think of) and make notes on all the aspects of the trip using the following table. Question Response Sector component Where did you (or someone else) book the holiday or trip? What did the holiday or trip include? What documents did you need for travel? How did you travel? Where did you stay? What facilities did you use while you were away? What sources of information did you use prior to going away? What sources of information did you use whilst away? Complete the second column with your interviewee’s answers and then try to complete the third column with the relevant component of the sector. For example, travelling by plane as a response leads to the transport (air) component of the sector. Keep all your information for a group discussion. Discuss how many of the components are needed for a holiday. Are any more important than others? 10 © Pearson Education Ltd 2010. Copying permitted for purchasing institution only.

BTEC Level 3 National Travel and Tourism Unit 1 Investigating the travel and tourism sector AS2 Trip of a lifetime Design a diagram to illustrate the links between the different components of the travel and tourism sector. Include text, pictures, diagrams and cuttings showing different types of organisation and how they are linked. Make some explanatory notes that could be displayed alongside. Your diagram should relate to the following scenario. Panday Rafir is going on the trip of a lifetime to Australia. Her dad has given her £4,000 to spend. She has made a list of all the things she needs to do to plan her trip. Of course, she may use travel agents or other organisations to do some of the things on her list. Your poster or diagram should indicate the various components of the sector that Panday will use and how they link together. For example, if a travel agent contacts an airline to book Panday’s ticket to Australia, the travel agent is linked to the airline, as they book a ticket using the airline’s reservation system and get paid a commission by the airline for making the booking. Remember to add explanatory notes to make the different links clear. Here is Panday’s list. Tick each item as it is dealt with. To Do: ● Find out about Perth and Sydney to plan where to go and what to see ● Book a ticket from Sydney to Perth ● Research prices of air tickets to Sydney from London and book ● Visit Trailfinders to ask their advice on tickets ● Find out if there is any government advice about travelling to Australia ● Arrange to collect mail somewhere in Sydney ● Get a passport ● Get a visa ● Find out any medical requirements ● Arrange a place to stay for the first few nights in Sydney ● Get some Australian dollars and a pay-as-you go credit card ● Get insured ● Buy a rucksack © Pearson Education Ltd 2010.

BTEC Level 3 National Travel and Tourism Unit 1 Investigating the travel and tourism sector AS4 National Air Traffic Services (NATS) Read the following extract from the NATS website. NATS provides air traffic control services at 15 of the UK’s biggest airports, and ‘en route’ air traffic services for aircraft flying through UK airspace. This year we will handle more than 2 million flights carrying over 220 million passengers. We compete for our business at the airports and have won all 15 of our contracts by being extremely good at what we do and the service we can offer. In 2005, we won our first overseas contract, for RAF Gibraltar. We operate under licence from the Civil Aviation Authority. NATS currently provides ‘en route’ air traffic control services from four centres: ● London Area Control Centre at Swanwick, Hampshire ● London Terminal Control Centre at West Drayton, Middlesex ● Scottish Area Control Centre and Oceanic Area Control Centre at Prestwick, Ayrshire ● Manchester Area Control Centre located at Manchester Airport. NATS’ long-term strategy is to rationalise its operations to two centres – the Swanwick Centre in Hampshire and a new Prestwick Centre alongside our existing centre in Ayrshire, opened in 2009. NATS operates at all six BAA airports including Heathrow, the world’s busiest for international traffic. It also handles traffic at Gatwick, the world’s busiest single runway airport and other key regional gateways such as Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow and at developing airports such as London City, Luton, Southampton and Farnborough. 1. Find out the ownership of NATS and make notes. 2. Summarise the main role of NATS. 3. Find out if NATS offers any other services. If so, note what they are. Stretch NATS wins its contracts against other service providers. Who are they? Who else provides air traffic control services in the UK? Find out and see what their performance record is like. © Pearson Education Ltd 2010. Copying permitted for purchasing institution only.

  • GCSE Leisure and Tourism 2009 Unit1.Pdf
    GCSE Leisure & Tourism – Investigating Leisure & Tourism in a chosen area 2.1.2 A Introduction to Leisure and Tourism Leisure Every person has things that they have to do. Many adults have to go to work; someone has to do the shopping, prepare meals, and clean the house and so on. Students and children have to go to school or college and may have homework projects to do after school has finished. Also, every person has to sleep, wash and shower usually for somewhere between 6 to 8 hours each night. When all these things have been completed there is time left over, and this time is a person’s leisure time. During this time, people choose to do what they enjoy doing rather than what they have to do. Put another way: Leisure time is the opportunity available to a person after completing the immediate necessities of life. During this time the person has the freedom to choose what activities to take part in. Another term used is a person’s free time. Some people choose to do very little in their leisure time and may watch television, listen to music or read a newspaper. All of these are very popular leisure activities. They are all things which many people choose to do because they can be done at home and cost very little money. Also, they are activities which people can enjoy on their own. Each person can decide what to do in their leisure time and there are many factors which influence this choice, including the age of the person, their family and friends, their religion and culture, the money they have to spend on leisure and where they live.
