The document provides statistical data on international visitation to the United States from 2012. Some key findings include:
- International visitors to the US set a new record in 2012 with 67 million visitors, a 7% increase from 2011. Top countries were Canada at 22.7 million and Mexico at 14.5 million.
- Overseas visitors excluding Canada and Mexico totaled 29.8 million in 2012, also a record and 7% increase. Top overseas markets with large increases were China, Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina and Brazil.
- Of the top 20 overseas markets, 14 saw increases in visits to the US in 2012, with 12 setting new records. The top 20 accounted for 89% of all international visits.
In 2009 the number of outbound tourists from Argentina was 4.9 million. However, the majority of them travelled to neighbouring countries, mostly Brazil and Chile. This fact is reflected by the statistics showing the most common choice for transportation: in 2009 38% of outbound tourists chose air travel and 46% opted for travelling on land.

The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of the coronavirus pandemic COVID 19 on the tourism industry and to find the tourism sector that will result from this pandemic. In the absence of a similar earlier research, this research is designed to be conducted in a courteous manner. The pilot research involved 103 travelers selected on a non probability basis. The findings suggest that the current COVID 19 pandemic is likely to affect travelers behavior in terms of human safety, economic costs, beliefs and attitudes. Finally, the main findings and practical implications of this research are described in terms of crisis management, and the direction of further study is presented based on the findings and limitations of this research.

Skift Research: U.S. Consumer Travel Post-PandemicRafat Ali
One of the biggest questions for the stalling travel industry when much of the world remains in crisis, while certain parts being to re-open, is: When will people start to travel again? Not to mention, how will they travel and where will they go? Tracking consumer sentiment is a primary way to understand these questions, keep track of shifting behaviors and attitudes as and when they are shaped, and then consider the pathways to both short-term and long-term recovery solutions.
Join Skift Research for this Travel’s Path Forward: Consumer Sentiment webinar as we discuss findings on how COVID-19 is impacting travel at the moment and what American consumers are thinking about for their future travel when the outbreak is finally behind them.
“Design is how it works.” Steve Jobs
That is what we have set out to do: to define how a modern travel experience should work. That is what we are going to honor with our inaugural Skift Design Awards, what we hope will become the most aspirational awards in the global travel industry and help elevate the role of transformational design experiences that enhance the traveler journey.
We believe the role of design cuts across every part of travel: the physical and digital touch points, the built environments, tech-enabled services, and experiential moments during and post travel.
So we have come up with a manifesto on how to understand design’s role in the travel industry: it will help the travel and allied companies understand the broader role of design and its application to the traveler experience, and its implications on business transformation and customer loyalty.
In today’s consumer-centric world where experiences, personal fulfilment, and transformative moments are revered as the ultimate currency, the role of design – in every sense of the word – has never been more important.

Free Report | Local Everywhere: Addressing the Global Translation ChallengeRafat Ali
As global travelers and travel content continues to migrate into the digital realm, consumers are increasingly researching, planning, and booking trips on the web and via mobile devices.

These two forces collide when travel brands enter new, foreign markets and struggle to offer content marketing in local languages.

Free Report: Airlines and Direct-Channel Booking: Cutting out the Middle ManRafat Ali
As airlines seek to reclaim profits and acquire new customers, they must face complex relationships with OTAs and metasearch engines. In this position paper, we consider how performance marketing, search-engine optimization, and renewed attention to content can drive direct-channel conversions — sparing airlines steep third-party commissions and fees while growing loyalty and market share among new and existing segments of their consumer base.

3. Why is International
Travel Important?
International Visitors to the United
States Set New Record in 2012
T
he United States welcomed 67 mil-
lion international visitors in 2012, a
record level of visitors to the United
States, four million more than the year be-
fore-a seven percent increase over 2011. In
2012, the top inbound markets continued to
be Canada and Mexico. Non-resident vis-
its from Canada set a record with 22.7 mil-
lion visitors, up six percent. Mexico was
second with a record 14.5 mil-
lion visits, up eight percent.
The Mexico growth perfor-
mance reflected a recovery
following four years of very
small increases or moderate
declines in traveler volume.
The United Kingdom (-2%),
Japan (+14%), and Germany
(+3%) rounded out the top
five.
Annual overseas arrivals (excluding Cana-
da and Mexico) totaled 29.8 million during
2012. Overseas travel grew seven percent
for the year, creating a new record level of
overseas visits for the United States. Travel
from these markets accounted for 44 per-
cent of total arrivals to the United States,
with 22 of the top 50 overseas markets set-
ting new visitation records.
Top inbound countries with the largest
increases in visits in 2012 were: the Peo-
ple’s Republic of China (excluding Hong
Kong) (+35%), Colombia (+21%), Venezu-
ela (+20%), Argentina (+20%) and Brazil
(+19%). All five countries set new records
for visits to the United States. While non-
visa waiver countries (led by Brazil, the
People’s Republic of China (excluding
Hong Kong), India, Venezuela, Argentina
and Colombia) registered record level visits
to the United States, visits from most Euro-
pean Union countries were in decline.
In 2012, 14 of the top 20 in-
bound visitor markets posted
increases in visits, six ac-
counted for double-digit in-
creases and 12 set record vis-
its to the United States. The
top 20 markets accounted
for 89 percent of all inter-
national visits to the United
States, and as a group were
up seven percent compared
to 2011. The United King-
dom, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands
and Ireland were the six markets out of the
top 20 which experienced declines for the
year.
Six of the overseas regional markets posted
record level visits: Asia, South America,
Oceania, the Middle East, Eastern Europe
and Africa due in part to non-resident visits
from Brazil, Australia and Russia. Visits
from Japan, the People’s Republic of China
(excluding Hong Kong), South Korea and
India spurred Asia to post a 15 percent in-
crease
