Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has created new and challenging issues for tourism policing. Prior to COVID-19 tourism policing dealt with issues such as criminality and terrorism. Few police departments saw public health issues as part of their mandate, nor were most of their officials experts in pandemics and the interaction between health issues and tourism security. As the reader will see in this chapter, COVID-19 added a new layer to the role of the tourism security official. Not only were health regulations a part of the travel industry, but their flaunting became a crime committed by members of the tourism industry and their guests. Secondly, tourism security professionals also fell victim to the pandemic and had to care not only for the industry and its visitor’s health but also had their own families about which to worry. This chapter examines how tourism policing around the world faced new challenges and how the intersection of security and public health has changed, perhaps forever, the fundamentals of tourism policing.
