Abstract: Abstract U.S.-citizen overseas travel is the product of per-capita expenditures (product of daily expense and number of days abroad) and number of tourists, with cabin and noncabin travelers differentiated. Debits from overland tourism (Canada and Mexico) are separately considered. Foreign tourist and transmigrant expenditures in the United States are treated similarly to U.S.-citizen spending overseas. Expenditures of Canadian tourists are estimated, but there are no data for Mexicans. Special travel price indexes are constructed.
