Plagued by ongoing staffing shortages, visa delays and even political divisions, the U.S. travel industry has lagged behind its competitors in regaining its share of international visitors since the Covid-19 pandemic. 

Now, a groundbreaking study by Euromonitor International, the results of which were first made public on January 11, sheds more light on how far the U.S. lags behind its global competitors.
