SUMMARY

The US showcases strong potential in terms of domestic and international arrivals, as total tourist volumes reached 2.2 billion in 2016 and are expected to reach 2.4 billion by 2021. The large number of people travelling to the US for leisure and business purposes makes it one of the leading markets for travel and tourism. In terms of total tourist volumes, the US was ranked second after China. In terms of international arrivals, the US was ranked second after France, with leisure being the primary purpose for visits.

In the passenger airlines segment, the US ranked first globally in terms of number of seats available and sold. However, in terms of volume growth, it lags behind due to its saturated market. Other nations such as Ireland, Thailand and Portugal have witnessed strong growth in terms of seats available and seats sold due to robust growth in the number of travelers visiting these countries.
