Decline in US travel spurs business push for visitors
The United States is open for business.
That’s the message a new industry group, the Visit U.S. Coalition, wants to send to other countries amid a decline in the number of international travelers coming to the United States.
The U.S. Travel Association, joined by nine other trade associations, is spearheading the effort, which centers on working with the Trump administration and getting agencies to collaborate on a common set of policies.
“We’ve looked at an administration that has been quite distracted with getting tax reform done” and working on health care, Roger Dow, the travel group’s chief executive, said Tuesday. “Now we think the time is right.”
“We don’t need to invent new policies,” Dow said during a conference call, adding that changes could manifest in as little as six months — just in time for summer travel season. “We need to let people know that they are welcome.”
