In 2019 Germans made more international tourism trips than americans, despite having only a quarter of the population.
But the observations depend on where you travel and see other travellers, right? Go to nw mexico and I expect most tourists are from the us? Whereas mallorca is practically the southernmost german bundesland? And cyprus presents plenty of russians?
And comparing geography: Germany is geographically much smaller than the US, and in a place like Liechtenstein it is easy to make an international trip just to go shopping, even if you take the bike.
Which is more than the population of Germany. These numbers must include Schegen movement otherwise the German are quite a touristy people. But including Schengen movements is like including inter-USA travel for Americans. I bet the US will rank much higher if we were to do that.
Source? Is this the number of passengers, aircraft movements, or something else? Also is it for American citizens or just people flying from US to non-US?
Also factor in that many people who do fly, fly multiple times a year.
If that 93m is individual passengers then you should discount it quite a bit to accommodate frequent fliers and overseas tourists returning home.
A google search snippet :)
thats number of trips taken by US citizens
Number of US citizens who traveled is 44 mil
so about half of the number of trips.
