Canadian Tourism to the United States Remains Below Pre-2024 Levels
New data shows that the number of Canadian visitors traveling to the United States has not yet returned to the levels seen in 2024. Although tourism is slowly increasing, the total number of visitors remains significantly lower than it was last year.
According to recent reports, overall visitation from Canada is down by approximately 29% compared to June 2024. This decline is visible across different methods of travel, as both road and air traffic have struggled to recover to previous volumes.
Specifically, travel by car has seen a decrease of 30%, while travel by air has dropped by 25%. These figures suggest that Canadians are choosing to travel less frequently across the border for vacations or business compared to the same period last year.
Experts are monitoring these trends closely to understand why the recovery is moving slowly. While the tourism industry in the United States continues to welcome international guests, the Canadian market remains a key area that has yet to reach its full potential.
As the year continues, businesses in the U.S. that rely on Canadian tourism will be watching to see if these numbers begin to rise. For now, the data highlights a clear gap between current travel patterns and the activity levels recorded in 2024.
