Millions of international travelers are increasingly choosing to avoid the United States.

The United States had roughly 4 million fewer international visitors in 2025 than the year before, marking a 5.5 percent decline in overseas tourism, according to CNN. Foreign visitor spending also fell by more than $8 billion.

Aside from the collapse in travel during the COVID-19 pandemic, it represents the sharpest annual drop in international tourism in roughly 20 years.

I'm in the US, and I am kinda surprised that it's only a 5.5% decline.

So essentially for every 18 tourists we used to get, now we still get 17. That seems like a lot. I'm sure we'll drive it much lower. Ugh.
