The United States could see a hemorrhaging hospitality industry lose up to $12.5 billion in international travel tourism dollars this year, collapsing to $169 billion from $181 billion in 2024, according to the World Travel and Tourism Council.

The travel industry in the United States is experiencing significant financial losses due to the ongoing global health crisis, with an estimated loss of $340 billion in travel spending in 2020 alone, according to the U.S. Travel Association. The article highlights that the downturn has led to the loss of nearly 1.4 million travel-related jobs, with small businesses being hit the hardest. It also notes that international travel to the U.S. has plummeted, causing a ripple effect on the economy. The U.S. Travel Association is advocating for federal relief to help the industry recover, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive recovery plan to restore consumer confidence and revive the sector.
