2. Hospitality and tourism was very different 100 years ago Travelers did not have many options in the past. Travel was expensive, time consuming, and often uncomfortable. It was also more dangerous. General Motors car, 1908 Minnesota saloon, 1908 Steam engine, 1920 ‒ 1950 New York Speedway, 1905 What are some ways hospitality and tourism businesses try to make travel more comfortable for customers today?

3. Transportation could be difficult, dangerous, and expensive To travel during the early 1900s, people had three main choices: trains, ships, or horses. How has modern transportation changed? Missouri-Kansas-Texas train hits flood waters, 1904 A woman with her horses, early 1900s The Titanic, 1911

4. Safe, clean, affordable rooms were often hard to find Luxury hotels were available in only the largest cities. In small cities, travelers sometimes stayed in barns, with townspeople, or slept in stagecoach or train stations. How do amenities in the early 1900s compare with what hotels offer today? Ranger House, Idaho, 1900s Ladies’ public restroom, 1909 New Colonial Hotel, 1920

5. Menus were rare for early 1900s travelers Only the largest cities offered full- service restaurants similar to what we have today. Fast food wasn’t introduced until 1912, and fast-food restaurants only offered hot dogs. What was Prohibition? Newsome’s Ice Cream Parlor, AL, 1914 Reno’s Restaurant, New Orleans, LA, 1912 Menu in family-style restaurant, 1939

6. Most people traveled short distances to visit local attractions What are the reasons people travel today? Entertainment businesses weren’t as plentiful as they are today, because most people traveled only to visit relatives or look for employment. Circus rider, 1904 Circus animals, 1893 Entering the circus tent, 1935Dance hall, Massachusetts, 1916

7. Modern hospitality and tourism businesses are very different If these pictures represent the most modern hospitality and tourism businesses, what does the future hold? Maglev train Burj Al Arab hotel Airbus A380 Allure of the Seas cruise ship
