That’s both in terms of Americans traveling overseas and foreign tourists coming here. In the short term, airlines and hotels are reporting a dramatic drop in load factors and occupancy. Some of this can be attributed to the uncertainty of any election year. But this year, the number of travelers from Mexico, Latin America, and the Middle East has dropped significantly.
