    * Air traffic, non-stop from US port to foreign port. Does not imply total 'visitation' throughout the respective regions

    1 The sum of the monthly totals will not equal the final annual total because late records were added to the final annual to report total U.S. outbound air traffic

    2 Percentage change is compared to the same time frame from the previous year.

    3 Overseas excludes Canada and Mexico air traffic data To view the final 2003 visitation estimates for U.S. outbound travelers, please go to: http://www.tinet.ita.doc.gov/outreachpages/outbound.general_information.outbound_overview.html

    Note: All data reported are from the Office of Travel and Tourism Industries (OTTI) "U.S. International Air Travel Statistics Report" I-92, except for the Canada air data. OTTI obtains the U.S. departures, via air, to Canada from Statistics Canada.
