Can we talk about how fast the landscape of travel is shifting? Europe’s new ETIAS fee just jumped from €7 to €20, and now Greece is charging cruisers island-by-island. Meanwhile, Mexico’s Baja California Sur now asks for $25 from overnight tourists. Feels like every trip needs a mini budget meeting now just to understand the fees.
On the flip side, tourism to the U.S. is slumping hard. Trump’s policies, like the $250 visa integrity fee and the funding cuts to Brand USA, are turning people away. I know friends in Canada and Southeast Asia who are actively avoiding U.S. trips. Anyone else adjusting their travel bucket list based on these changes?
