It’s fair to say that the United States’ inbound tourism market has seen better times.
International visitation is down 1.9 per cent for the first six months of the year, according to preliminary data shared by the U.S. Commerce Department’s National Travel and Tourism Office. Market share is declining too, with trade lobby group U.S. Travel Association reporting a four-year slide in global market share of long haul travel to 11.3 percent this year. They predict that number will drop to 10.9 per cent by 2022, costing the U.S. $180 billion in international traveler spending.
