The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) anticipates that in 2026 the travel and tourism industry across Central and South America will experience growth exceeding the global average. This forecast highlights the region’s potential to lead in worldwide travel sector expansion during that year.
Factors Supporting Tourism Expansion
The projected acceleration in tourism activity is supported primarily by increased visitor expenditure within the region alongside robust domestic travel demand. These elements combine to drive the steady development of Central and South America’s travel markets, reflecting strengthening economic participation from both inbound visitors and internal tourism.
