Qısa məlumat

The development of technology, the comfort of air transport and the annual reduction in prices have been the motivating factors for tourists. Despite this motivation, travelling abroad is a cause for concern. One of the biggest sources of concern is the risk of a terrorist act. The country that wants to develop tourism must take various measures to prevent these problems. Initially, literature review was conducted in this study and it revealed how the terrorist acts affect the tourism industry in Turkey. At the same time, information on prevented terrorist acts in Azerbaijan has been given for years, with statistics showing how these events affect the number of tourists. In the end, recommendations were given on what measures could be taken in the future for sustainable tourism.
