Global travel is surging, but tourists aren't coming to the US

Despite more people taking international trips globally, the United States is losing ground as a top destination, according to new data.

Last year was one of the best years for the travel and tourism sector, with a 4.1% increase in gross domestic product growth, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council's (WTTC) latest economic impact research, sponsored by Chase Travel.

There were 80 million more international travelers in 2025 than in 2024. But many of them are skipping the United States for other locales.

Recent data by the NTTO also showed a 20% decline in Canadian travelers, or 4.2 million fewer visitors, once a major market for the United States.



Previous USA TODAY reporting found several reasons why international travelers are skipping the United
States. Among them are fears of border detainment and gun violence.

The drop in international visitors could spell trouble for the U.S. economy, as travel is one of the country's largest export services.


What have we got to visit other than Las Vegas or Manhattan?

We've devolved into a fascist state with an insane president;
capping one another's asses has always been the national pastime,
but it has since gotten worse.

Where's the attraction there?

If you're European, you've got a plethora of fun cities to visit without flying over the ocean,
and you don't have to wear a Kevlar vest in most of them.

No one is running around with a Kevlar vest here that doesn't also have a covid mask. They are called Democrats and they are not well.

Maybe in the democrat shithole city you live in it's not safe but the rest of us are going about our lives with untroubled minds. The only people "capping" each others ass' are the feral negro population and the illegal alien gang bangers.

The attraction here is if you can somehow come up with a tourist visa you used to be able to then just melt into the landscape here leaving the second half of your airline ticket unused.
And as an added bonus you could drop your chinkling out of your ass while on vacation and never leave.

Now that this shit isn't flying anymore of course there are less of them. Simple supply and demand.

Trump is still your president and will be for almost three more years, god willing. Medicate yourself and the time will fly by. Although I don't agree with much of what he's up to overall he's doing a fine job B+
 
Who gives a fuck if a bunch of tourists stop by or not?
^ That is his way of saying he does not work in that major part of the US economy which is tourism related or up or down stream of it and as magat why would he care about all the Americans who do and are being impacted.

The primary identifier for any magat as I have said many times prior is they all lack any empathy for others and can only feel something if it impacts them directly or their family.
