This article contains a detailed statistical analysis of the development of the international tourism market. It was considered the period after the end of the Second World War (the starting point, which gave impetus to the rapid development of the industry as a global phenomenon) to the present day. At the same time, the main attention was paid to the last twenty years of the functioning of the tourism and hospitality industry. At the same time, the main attention was paid to the last twenty years of the functioning of the tourism and hospitality industry. In the course of the analysis, various factors that significantly influenced the development of the international market for tourist services were identified: climate change, natural disasters, currency fluctuations, changes in prices for petroleum products, political and military conflicts, terrorism, epidemics of dangerous viral and infectious diseases, financial and economic crises and a number of other factors. It was noted that most of the above factors have a direct impact on the development of the international market of tourist services. However, all these factors are inherently exogenous, that is, they are not directly related to tourism, but have a significant impact on it. The article notes the process of becoming popular tourist destinations, analyzes the trends of modern tourist flows, and studies the patterns of their formation. As a result, the conclusion was made that the presence of the Russian Federation in the international market of tourist services is inadequate, as well as the need to make certain decisions in this area.
