Title: US Tourism Suffers 8.2% Decline

Link: https://news.slashdot.org/story/25/09/01/2339...

International tourism to the United States faces an unprecedented 8.2%
decline in 2025, with the World Travel and Tourism Council projecting a $12.5
billion loss in visitor spending -- the only decline among 184 economies
analyzed. Canadian visitors, traditionally comprising 28% of international
arrivals, have dropped by approximately 25% through July. Seattle tour
operators report 30-50% fewer Canadian customers with many explicitly citing
recent tariff policies and political rhetoric as deterrents. The newly
implemented $250 "visa integrity fee" for certain countries compounds
existing concerns about immigration policies and National Guard deployments
in major cities. Tourism Economics now projects full recovery to pre-pandemic
levels won't occur until 2029, three years later than initially forecast.
