International Tourism and COVID-19
- The pandemic generated a loss of 2.7 billion international arrivals in 2020, 2021 and 2022 combined.
- Export revenues from international tourism (including receipts and passenger transport) dropped 62% in 2020 and 59% in 2021, versus 2019 (real terms) and then rebounded in 2022, remaining 23% below pre-pandemic levels.
- The total loss in export revenues from tourism amounts to USD 2.5 trillion for that three-year period.
- International tourist arrivals reached 89% of pre-pandemic levels in 2023 and 98% in January-September 2024.
- Revised data for 2023 shows export revenues from international tourism reaching USD 1.8 trillion virtually the same as before the pandemic (-1% in real terms compared to 2019). Tourism direct GDP also recovered pre-pandemic levels in 2023, reaching an estimated USD 3.4 trillion, equivalent to 3% of global GDP.
