See why Chinese tourists avoid trips to the U.S.

International trips are back on the map for Chinese travelers. This is welcome news for the global travel industry, as Chinese outbound tourism accounted for nearly a fifth of all international tourism spending.

China was the third largest contributor of international tourists to the United States in the years leading up to the pandemic.

However, a recent survey shows more Chinese travelers are likely to reconsider their trip to the U.S., and COVID-19 is not the only reason.
