Abstract

This chapter comments on the outlook for sustainable urban tourism until around 2030. All Co-Editors collaborated by offering their opinions on how urban tourism will change (or stay the same) for the next approximately seven to ten years. Chapter 40 begins with a review of the forecasts for the future of cities from a variety of academic and other sources. The academic contributions cover the themes of urban futures, urban governance, sustianable urban transport, energy consumption in urban areas, smart cities, creative cities, and urban inequality. These commentaries are followed by 20 recommendations for future sustainable urban tourism contributed by the four Co-Editors. Several of these urban initiatives are already underway, while others are on the cusp of being introduced (such as “flying taxis”).
