Australians are increasingly avoiding travel to the United States under Donald Trump’s second presidency, fresh data shows, with forecasters expecting tourist numbers to plummet further throughout the year.
Official statistics from the US International Trade Administration reveal the number of visitors from Australia in March 2025 was down by 7% compared with March 2024 – a reduction of 4,559 people.
This is the largest decline since March 2021, when the Covid-19 pandemic was disrupting international travel.
