We don’t need no stinking tourism, right chump?

Wait until your car insurance company adjusts your premium to make up for the increase in cars and car parts.

Trump is doing for the US what Musk did for Tesla.

And I see Gina Martin Adams chief equity strategist on Bloomberg is saying how much they have cut their investment strategy on US stocks. Larry fink we're already in a recession. Trump is proving to be a disaster economic manager! Joe Biden We are sorry very very sorry!!

My relatives from the UK would buy lots of clothes when they visited years ago (they loved Woodbury Common).

Trump's corruption, MAGA private contractors are making money by detaining for long periods of time travelers to the US, like this cartoonist from the UK. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/05/i-was-a-british-tourist-trying-to-leave-america-then-i-was-detained-shackled-and-sent-to-an-immigration-detention-centre

You know Trump's perverts were spying on this attractive white woman while they wrongfully detained her.

Most Canadians do not arrive at the international terminals, they pre-clear customs in Canada and arrive at US domestic terminals and are therefore not captured in this data.

besa1.bsky.social•9 hours ago

So would the vertical line be deeper then?

d-cym.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Given that Canadians are the largest single source of tourists to the US, the impact would be greater. Are Canadians reducing visits to the US at greater rates than other foriegners? I don't know, but this data can't tell us either.

besa1.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Anecdotally, we keep hearing that flights are 70% off historic levels.

d-cym.bsky.social•7 hours ago

And Westjet has announced they are cutting flights in accordance with the reduced bookings. It would be nice if someone put in the effort to find real data (I'm too lazy to try).

alberthubble.bsky.social•8 hours ago

The second biggest group are Mexicans. Together they make up 51 % of all tourists. US tourism will crash really hard.

an-elk.bsky.social•9 hours ago

Thanks for this. The layout is confusing. It's hard to keep each airport a a single chart

The single month line (at the start of April) looks like the line that should be separating the individual airport charts.

(yeah, I know, everyone's a critic)

davewithturbos.bsky.social•9 hours ago

Yeah I had to change it a little.

pmbtravel.bsky.social•9 hours ago

Is it March to April?

davewithturbos.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Good Q, I take it as May to April but am not 100% sure.

an-elk.bsky.social•8 hours ago

If it is a year chart, then the vertical line is the year divider. Which, given the spacing, is a possibility.

an-elk.bsky.social•8 hours ago

I can't tell. The X axis is May and April, but the graph is too short to be a full year.

I think it's supposed to be 30 days from Mar 6 to Apr 6, with the "Mar" being mislabeled as May.

At the bottom, it says "preceding 30 days relative to the same day the prior year."

pmbtravel.bsky.social•3 hours ago

That’s what I assumed. A typo. Never sure if something is true or not. Thanks.

alberthubble.bsky.social•8 hours ago

51 % of American tourists are either form Canada or Mexico. Guess if half of them will come in 2025, that would be lucky for the USA. So tourism industry will crash hard. Europeans also won't come and maybe even some Americans go to Canada out of spite and to support them.
Crash and burn!

raventrick.bsky.social•9 hours ago

I wouldn’t visit the US either.

rikue.bsky.social•7 hours ago

We used to live in LA and have visited several times since. I don’t see ourselves doing that again, at least for the foreseeable future.

rest of the world to US: see you around.
