Theres a new self-imposed, fear-inspired travel ban happening among American travelers.
U.S.-based travelers are increasingly canceling trips to Mexico, reports Travel Weekly. According to a recent survey of 166 travel agents conducted by the MAST Travel Network, eight percent said they have clients who have canceled or re-booked trips to other destinations.
MAST also said 52 percent of the agents reported they have clients who specifically indicated that they did not want to travel to Mexico, while 49 percent said their clients do not want to travel internationally.
The intensifying issues of immigration, the border wall, and trade are, in my view, going to cause some customers to think twice about a vacation in Mexico if they feel they are not welcome, John Werner, president and COO of MAST, told Travel Weekly. I don't believe anyone should feel that way, but based on our member survey, agents are hearing concerns from their clients.
