Trump’s Presidency: A Global Decline in US Standing
Driven by President Trump’s escalating trade war and threats against Canada, bookings for flights from Canada to the U.S. have plummeted. Future bookings are down approximately 70% through September, with April experiencing the most significant drop at over 75%. This decline is attributed to the ongoing trade dispute and uncertainty, potentially impacting the “snowbird” travel market. The situation threatens billions of dollars in lost spending and thousands of jobs, according to industry analyses.
