Abstract

This article explores the role of international transport in the development of the tourism sector, emphasizing its importance in ensuring tourist mobility, facilitating economic growth, and fostering international cooperation. The research identifies key challenges that hinder the effective functioning of international transport in tourism, including environmental concerns, security threats, infrastructure destruction, and rising operational costs. Special attention is given to the impact of geopolitical crises, particularly the war in Ukraine, on international transport and tourism, as well as the subsequent disruptions in global travel patterns. The study analyzes statistical data on the recovery of international tourism and transport in recent years, highlighting trends in air, rail, road, and maritime travel. Additionally, the article examines emerging forms of tourism, such as military and solidarity tourism, which have gained relevance in conflict-affected regions. The findings suggest that the future development of international transport in tourism depends on the modernization of infrastructure, the adoption of digital and eco-friendly technologies, and strategic policy adjustments to enhance global mobility and sustainability. The study concludes that despite ongoing challenges, the tourism and transport sectors hold significant potential for recovery and growth. Investment in smart transport systems, green transportation solutions, and cross-border cooperation will be crucial in shaping a resilient and adaptive international tourism industry in the coming years
