The USA citizens have passports now so trips to the Carribean and Mexico will decrease and trips to Costa Rica, South America and Asia will increase. Europeans are doubling up on trips inside Europe as the Low Cost Carriers allow them to travel cheaper for weekend trips, so more weekend excursions and less long haul. Hopefully the Ecotourist industry realizes that the only goog eco-tourist is one that stays home and does not increase the footprint.
