International travel to South America plummeted from 35m visitors in 2019 to 3.3m in 2021, the expectation of leveling numbers reached in 2019 by 2024
Research by GlobalData has revealed that international travel to South America plummeted from 35 million visitors in 2019 to a mere 3.3 million in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic—meaning that the region missed out on around $49.2 billion* in tourism spend over the two years. The leading data and analytics company notes that, following these disastrous few years, 2022 has seen a rather sudden return of international visitors, and the country should return to just over the levels it reached in 2019 by 2024.
